The Olšina Pond (Langenbruck Pond) is a unique waterworks located in the beautiful natural surroundings of Boletice. The site is an oasis of peace in a corner of the Bohemian Forest, in the region surrounding the town of Český Krumlov, which was once forbidden to be visited, and has been protected from intensive human activity for a long time. Directly by the pond, you can enjoy a snack, lunch, or dinner at a recreational facility, or visit the famous Fishermen's Bastion.

The waterworks itself, with its area of 138 hectares at an altitude of 731 meters above sea level, is the highest fishpond in the Czech Republic and the largest in the Bohemian Forest.

The Fishermen's Bastion dates back to the first half of the 15th century and is a highly valuable historical monument located on the pond's dam. Visitors can see an exhibition about the history of the village of Olšina, the Olšina pond and fishing.
