Vrbenské rybníky, Nature reserve with ponds in České Vrbné, Czech Republic.
Vrbenské rybníky is a protected nature reserve featuring an interconnected system of freshwater ponds in České Vrbné. These waters support a diverse range of plants and serve as breeding and resting grounds for numerous bird species.
The reserve received official protected status in 1990, representing an important commitment to safeguarding Czech wetland ecosystems. This designation ensured the long-term preservation of this vital habitat.
Local environmental education programs bring students to study the wetland ecosystem, contributing to scientific research and ecological understanding.
The reserve can be explored via marked trails and wooden boardwalks that provide easy access through the wetland. Spring and autumn are the best seasons for observing migratory birds and other wildlife.
The reserve harbors rare aquatic plants such as water chestnut and fringed water lily that are seldom found elsewhere. Old trees within the reserve support specialized beetle species that depend on aged wood habitats.
