Skarpa Wiślicka Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in Wiślica, Silesian Voivodeship, Poland

The Skarpa Wiślicka reserve spans 29 hectares of forested land on a steep slope along the left bank of the Vistula River valley.

The Ministry of Environment, Natural Resources and Forestry established this protected area in 1996, initially covering 24.17 hectares of land.

Scientists regularly conduct research in the reserve to study forest ecology and monitor the growth patterns of native tree species in the Silesian region.

The reserve location near National Road 81 between Katowice and Skoczów provides easy access for visitors interested in nature observation.

This area contains the largest natural concentration of mountain elm trees in the Cieszyn Silesia region, with some specimens reaching 140 years of age.
