Załęcze Landscape Park

Załęcze Landscape Park is a nature reserve in Olesno County with limestone formations along the Warta River, including caves and rock outcrops set within forest. The landscape comprises wooded hills with exposed rock layers and natural viewpoints.

The area was designated as a protected reserve in 1978 to preserve the geological features of the central Polish highland region. This designation was among the early conservation efforts in the country.

The red-marked Wieluń Jurassic Trail guides visitors through the geological formations and connects different limestone landscapes across the region. The trail shows how people engage with and learn from the natural heritage here.

The park has marked walking paths leading to the geological formations and viewpoints. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear since trails pass through forest and over rocky terrain.

The Zelce cliff rises approximately 53 meters above the Warta River and supports rare heat-loving grasslands. These plants are normally found only in the southern Kraków-Częstochowa Upland.
