Verification of the Possibility of Using Geographical Information Systems to Identify New Educational Trails in the Czech border – Jeseniky region

The area of Jeseníky has a rich history, but its continuity was disrupted during the 20th century. Traces of „landscape memory“ can be found in the form of small sacral architecture, historical paths, trees and border stones. This paper verifies the possibility of using GIS to track it, and transform fragments of urbanised countryside into new educational and sports trails. The aim is to provide a better understanding of the fragile relationship between landscape and urban areas in the region and its history.
