Checked
The Libuš creek cut down far enough here to expose readable geological profiles in the sides of the gully, with riparian forest along the water and warm, dry meadows on the slopes above. A nature trail and several cycling routes run its length, a green corridor between two Prague housing estates. Black locust has been pushing into the meadows in recent years.
From Wikipedia
The Modřany Gully nature reserve (Czech: Přírodní památka Modřanská rokle) is located in the districts of Modřany, Cholupice and Libuš of Prague, Czech Republic on the east side of the Vltava river. It was formed by erosion from the Libuš creek, which, in several places has exposed geologic profiles. It was granted protected status due to the riparian forest in the area near the creek, and the occurrence of thermophilic meadow ecologies on the slopes, but in recent years has suffered from encroachment of foreign flora, in particular the Black Locust tree. It is also an important recreational area between two housing estates, containing a nature trail and several cycling routes.
