Nature reserve Bobry w Uhercach, Nature reserve in Uherce, Poland

The protected area spans 27.16 hectares, featuring meandering rivers, wetlands, and former gravel pits that create an environment for diverse wildlife species.

In 1982, five pairs of European beavers were released in the Osława Valley, and after two years, one pair settled near the Olszanka River in Uherce.

Local conservation efforts led by Andrzej Czech resulted in the establishment of this protected area in 1994 to preserve the European beaver population.

The reserve contains numerous walking paths along the Olszanka River, offering opportunities to observe beavers, deer, wild boars, and various water birds.

The site encompasses abandoned gravel quarries, previously used for the Solina power plant construction, which now form natural habitats for numerous species.
