Nature reserve Stawinoga, Nature reserve in Zatory municipality, Poland.
Nature reserve Stawinoga is a protected area containing ponds, forests, meadows, and wetlands spread across the Mazovia region. These different habitats create a connected ecosystem that supports diverse wildlife.
The reserve was established in 1981 through a government decree focused on protecting water and marsh ecosystems in the region. This decision ensured the long-term preservation of these natural habitats.
The eastern section belongs to the Puszcza Biała bird protection area, where you can watch numerous water bird species throughout the seasons. The open waters and surrounding woodland edges create natural gathering spaces for these birds.
The reserve allows seasonal water drainage from ponds and permits extensive fishing activities according to management guidelines. Visitors should be aware that access to certain areas may vary depending on the season.
At the edge of the reserve stands an ancient pedunculate oak tree with a shrine, officially recognized as a natural monument. This tree has witnessed centuries of history and remains a place of local reverence.
