Cisów-Orłowiny Landscape Park, Nature reserve in Kielce County, Poland.
The Cisów-Orłowiny Landscape Park spans a large area in the Kielce region and consists of dense forests, hilly terrain, and several protected nature reserves within its boundaries. The park features diverse habitats including peatlands, woodlands, and various other natural areas to explore.
The protected area was established in 1988 and forms part of a network of nature reserves surrounding Świętokrzyski National Park in south-central Poland. Creating this park was important for preserving the region's diverse habitats and ecosystems.
The Zamczysko forest reserve contains traces of an ancient pagan sanctuary with earth embankments and terraces that show how people lived here long ago. These remains tell the story of early settlements in the region and how people used the land.
The Green Velo Trail offers designated paths through the area that allow visitors to explore the forests, peatlands, and varied landscapes easily. The park is accessible year-round, but paths may have different conditions depending on the season, especially after rain or during wetter months.
The Białe Ługi reserve contains the largest protected natural peatland complex in the park with special ecological conditions supporting rare plant species. These particular wetland areas provide important habitat for wildlife and plants that are difficult to find elsewhere in the region.
