Szczecin Landscape Park

Stettiner Landschaftsschutzpark Buchheide is a protected landscape area with extensive beech forests and diverse woodland habitats near Szczecin. The terrain features multiple walking paths that connect different ecological zones and smaller nature reserves scattered throughout the park.

The area was organized for protection of beech forests in the late 1800s by local enthusiasts interested in conservation. The formal protection system developed gradually over subsequent decades with the designation of several nature reserves.

The park incorporates multiple nature reserves developed between 1956 and 1971, reflecting Poland's commitment to environmental conservation.

The park is best explored on foot, with several marked trails available for different walking abilities. The area is accessible year-round, though spring and autumn offer the most pleasant conditions for visiting the deciduous woodlands.

The area holds European protection status as a designated conservation site under international biodiversity agreements. This international designation shapes how the landscape is managed and what activities are permitted there.
