Nature reserve Lasy w Dolinie Strzyży

Nature reserve Lasy w Dolinie Strzyzy is a protected forest along the Strzyza stream, featuring deciduous woodlands with oak and ash trees on nutrient-rich soil. The area contains more than 180 documented plant species spread across connected forest sections.

This nature reserve was officially established in 2007 as a refined protection of an earlier nature-landscape complex designated in 2001. The change reflected efforts to focus conservation on the most valuable forest sections.

The reserve serves as a place where students and researchers come to study the local ecosystem and its plant diversity. People use the area to observe nature directly and develop understanding of how the forest works.

The reserve is accessible via marked trails that connect to regional hiking routes in the area. Visitors should stay on designated paths and respect the conservation guidelines in place.

The reserve contains mountain plant species that normally grow at higher elevations but thrive here at unusually low altitudes in northern Poland. This unexpected botanical situation makes the area particularly interesting for researchers and nature observers.
