Soos NNR is located 5 km NE of the centre of the spa town of Františkovy Lázne and 3.5 km SE of Skalná. The reserve covers an area of 221 ha at elevations of 429 – 440 metres above sea level in the parishes of Vonšov (Nový Drahov), Dvorek and Nová Ves and was declared in 1964.
A number of plant communities have formed at the Soos NNR due to the variety of biotopes found here (and the transitions between them). The most important plant communities are found on the peatbogs, fens and their transitional stages. The many rare and protected plant species which can be found here include the pale bladderwort (Utricularia ochroleuca) and intermediate bladderwort (Utricularia intermedia), one-flowered wintergreen (Moneses uniflora), bog sedge (Carex limosa), reddish pondweed (Potamogeton alpinus), round-leaved sundew (Drosera rotundifolia), the viper’s grass Scorzonera parviflora, white beak-sedge (Rhynchospora alba), the spurrey Spergularia salina, sea milkwort (Glaux maritima) and others. Fungi which are found here include the bolete Suillus flavidus and the cup fungus Otidea concinna.
