Entry to Bohemian Switzerland to remain restricted until end of September

Restrictions on entry to the Bohemian Switzerland National Park, introduced due to the extensive forest fire at the end of July, will remain in place until the end of September, the Czech News Agency reports. The ban on entering the forest in selected areas of the national park has been in effect since the end of July and was supposed to finish at the end of August, but the Environment Ministry has now decided to extend it by another month. The nighttime ban on entering the entire area of the national park will also remain in force. However, people are able to visit the parts of the park that were not affected by the fire without restrictions from September 1.
