Podlasie Bug Gorge Landscape Park

The Podlasie Bug Gorge Landscape Park is a large protected area stretching along the Bug River, with forests, meadows, and sand dunes creating varied scenery. The landscape includes dense vegetation and open spaces, with the river winding naturally through the terrain.

The area received protected status in 1994 to preserve the natural landscape along the Bug River. This designation aimed to safeguard the river valley and its ecosystems for future generations.

The area was historically a borderland where different peoples and faiths lived side by side, and this shared past remains visible in local villages and small chapels today. Walking through nearby settlements, you can see how these communities left their marks on the landscape.

The park has marked trails connecting various viewpoints where you can explore different environments and observe wildlife. The best time to spot birds and other animals is during early morning or evening hours when they are most active.

The Bug River flows freely through the park without dams or barriers, creating natural meanders that constantly shift and form new habitats. This uncontrolled river movement allows rare plant species to thrive and makes the area botanically outstanding.
