Nase prvni cache je ukryta u puvodniho pramene
Metuje, na louce pod hradem Adrspach. Soucasny hlavni pramen lezi v
rezervaci mimo verejne pristupnou cestu.
Our first geocache is hidden at a place between
two Metuje springs near the Adrspach Rockcastle. The first one lost its
water and the second one lies outside a marked tourist's path.
PRAMEN METUJE
Metuje (puvodne Methuja, z
praindoevropskeho medh-„prostredni“ –
rozumej prostredni reka mezi Upou a Orlici; podle legendy z
„med tu je“) je reka v severovychodnich Cechach, levy
pritok Labe. Je 77,2 km dlouha. Povodi ma rozlohu 607,6 km2.
Prameni v nadmorske vysce 586 m v Broumovske vrchovine u Hodkovic,
zapadne od Adrspasskych skal. Jeji tok vyhloubil ve skalach zapadni
cast Vlci rokle (stejnojmenna cache), proteka umelym
adrspasskym jezirkem, ze ktereho pada Velkym a Malym vodopadem do
skalniho mesta a odtud vyteka u vstupu do skal (u pokladny c.
1).
Na hornim a strednim toku vytvari Metuje hluboce zariznuta udoli. Z
vyznamnejsich obci lezi na teto rece Teplice nad Metuji, Hronov,
Nachod a Nove Mesto nad Metuji. V Jaromeri pak ve vysce 248 m usti
do Labe a jeji vody jsou dale odvadeny do Severniho more.
Vyznamnejsi pritoky (levy/pravy)jsou Zdonovský potok (L),
Ledhujka (L), Zidovka (L), Drevic (P), Brlenka (L), Strela (L),
Radechovka (P), Olesenka (L) a Rozkos (P).
Pramen Metuje mel v dejinach mnoho lokalizaci
(jedna z nich byla i v Polsku). Puvodni pramen se nachazi na louce.
Bohuzel tok prosel regulaci a voda temer zmizela. Jine v
soucasnosti hlavni umistenni vytycili autori serialu CT Zpet k
pramenum asi 1 km po proudu: podle Zakladni vodohospodarske mapy
oznacili pramen Metuje ve Vlci rokli (misto neni verejne pristupne
- lezi v prirodni rezervaci mimo znacenou turistickou
cestu).

THE
METUJE SPRING
The Metuje, which is an inflow of the
Labe, is a river in north-east Bohemia is 77,2 km long. The name
Metuje originates from „Methuja“ – a
middle river between two rivers: the Upa and the Orlice.
It has its source in the Broumov highlands near Hodkovice, at the
altitude of 586 metres above the sea level, west of the Adrspach
Rocks.
The river flows through the Adrspach Rocks towards Jaromer to empty
its waters into the Labe river. The most important towns by the
river are Teplice nad Metují, Hronov, Nachod and Nové Mesto nad
Metuji.
The original Metuje spring is situated on a
meadow which lies about 0,5 km far up the stream. Unfortunately its
surroundings was digged up and the stream lost its water. The
second and the main spring is 1 km down the stream in the Vlci rokle (Glen) now. The place was also
labeled as the Metuje spring but this place lies outside a marked
tourist's path and it is not possible to place any cache
nearby.
