Nature reserve Rotuz, Nature reserve in Chybie and Czechowice-Dziedzice municipalities, Poland.
Nature reserve Rotuz spans more than 40 hectares across the municipalities of Chybie and Czechowice-Dziedzice, featuring transitional peatlands with low and high moors covered in marsh vegetation. A protective buffer zone surrounds the entire site to minimize external impacts on this sensitive ecosystem.
Officials established this reserve in December 1966 to protect the peatland ecosystem from increasing pressure. The protected area was expanded significantly from its original size to encompass more habitat types and biological communities.
Scientists at the Silesian Museum in Katowice conducted research studies of this natural area starting from the mid-1930s.
Wear sturdy footwear when visiting since the ground is soft and muddy, especially after rain. Stay on established paths to protect the fragile habitat and avoid disturbing wildlife in this sensitive wetland area.
The site supports multiple plant communities with diverse vascular plants and bryophytes coexisting in distinct associations. This botanical richness attracted scientific interest from regional museums and researchers interested in studying transitional wetland ecology.
