Kersko

Kersko is a nature park in Nymburk District featuring forests, wetlands, and open grasslands arranged across its territory. The different landscape types work together to support a wide range of plant and animal life throughout the seasons.

The area was designated as a protected nature park in 1986 to conserve its landscape and wildlife. In 2016, it received enhanced protection status and stronger conservation measures to maintain its ecological value.

The park is where locals and visitors come to experience the riverine landscape and spot wildlife that thrives in this natural setting. People naturally gather at observation points to watch birds and connect with the outdoor environment throughout the year.

Walking is the best way to explore the park, with trails of varying length suited to different abilities. Wear sturdy footwear and bring weather-appropriate clothing, as wet areas can make sections muddy depending on the season.

Much of the park is reserved for bird breeding during spring and summer, providing safe nesting sites for rare species. These breeding zones are carefully separated from main visitor areas to reduce disturbance and support successful chick-rearing.
