The purpose of this paper is to evaluate control of orientation of foliations and joints on the direction of valley axes in the Stříbrné Hory area in the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands in central part of the Czech Republic. This area is predominantly built by metamorphic rocks. It is situated near the Přibyslav deep-seated fault. The data concerning of foliations, joints and valley axes were statistically analyzed and then visually compared according to their distribution using direction roses. Directions of valley axes have generally orientation of NNE–SSW, SE, E−W, NW and WNW and coincide with the system of foliations and ordinarily steep joints.
