Ostrovul Mare, Nature reserve river island in Teleorman County, Romania

Ostrovul Mare consists of two connected islands located at the intersection of the Olt and Danube rivers, forming a substantial ecological zone.

The river island has maintained its natural state through centuries, serving as a critical point along the Danube's course through Romanian territory.

The reserve near Islaz commune represents a connection between local agricultural traditions and environmental preservation efforts in southern Romania.

Access to the island requires coordination with local authorities, as the protected status limits visits to specific times and designated areas.

The reserve functions as a breeding ground for pygmy cormorants and provides essential habitat for numerous bird species within the Natura 2000 network.
