Abstract: In 2022, Bohemian Switzerland National Park experienced the largest wildfire in the recent history of the Czech Republic, affecting over 1,000 hectares. The aim of this study was to perform a hydrological assessment of the post-fire conditions in the Sucha Bela sub-basin, located in the park, using the HEC-HMS software package. Rainfall–runoff relationship data and landscape classification data specific to the Sucha Bela sub-basin were categorized using Sentinel-2 imagery and local surveys. The results showed that the forest fire temporarily affected the soil infiltration capacity and therefore influenced runoff.
