Nature reserve Linje

Nature reserve Linje is a protected peatland area near Dąbrowa Chełmińska characterized by waterlogged soils and specialized plant communities. The reserve supports rare mosses, sedges, and carnivorous sundew plants adapted to these wet conditions.

The reserve was established in 1956 through government decree to protect this rare peatland ecosystem. The designation recognized the area's ecological importance for threatened plant species.

Scientists and researchers conduct ecological studies in the reserve to monitor the rare dwarf birch population and document changes in peatland vegetation.

The area is accessible via marked hiking trails that connect to other protected sites in the Chełmno reserves system. Sturdy waterproof footwear is essential as the ground remains permanently waterlogged.

The reserve protects a dwarf birch species found in only three locations across Poland. This specialized tree thrives in the extreme peatland conditions and remains important for ecological research.
