Meandry Lučiny, Natural monument in Havířov, Czech Republic.

The Lučina River creates natural meandering patterns across 40 hectares, forming deep banks and gravel terraces with diverse aquatic vegetation.

The District Office in Karviná established this protected area in 1991 to preserve the natural riverbed and its biological communities.

Local communities participate in environmental education programs to learn about river ecosystems and wetland preservation methods at Meandry Lučiny.

Visitors can observe 15 dragonfly species, 13 fish species, and numerous bird species while exploring the protected riverine landscape.

The river continuously changes the position and shape of its meanders, creating new habitats for endangered species like Lampetra planeri.
