Puszcza Zielonka Landscape Park, Landscape park and nature reserve in Poznań County, Poland
Puszcza Zielonka Landscape Park is a protected landscape area northeast of Poznań, in Poznań County, Poland. The land is mostly forested, with rolling hills and scattered lakes shaped by glacial activity.
The park was established in 1993 to protect the largest forest complex in central Wielkopolska. The terrain itself was shaped during the last ice age, which left behind the hills and lakes that define the area today.
The park has many marked trails for walking and cycling through the forests and around the lakes, so no special preparation is needed. It is close enough to Poznań for a comfortable day trip in any season.
The park is home to Dentaria enneaphyllos, a mountain plant that reaches its northernmost point in Poland here. The observation tower on Dziewicza Góra hill also serves as a fire watch post during summer.
