Bagno Przecławskie Nature Reserve, Nature reserve near Przecław, Poland.
Bagno Przecławskie is a wetland reserve comprising peat bogs, mixed forests, and water-filled pits from former extraction activities, all surrounded by pine and oak trees. Wooden boardwalks guide visitors through different zones while allowing observation of over 200 plant species.
Before World War II, the area experienced extensive peat extraction that created large excavation pits which gradually filled with water after the work ceased. These flooded depressions became defining features of the present-day landscape.
The forestry district maintains walking routes that share knowledge about traditional peat harvesting methods and environmental protection efforts in this region. Visitors can experience how local communities have worked with these wetlands for generations.
Wooden boardwalks provide easy access through the different protection zones with secure footing throughout. Bring suitable footwear and stay on marked paths to help preserve the delicate ecosystems.
The reserve contains two separate ecological zones that support rare plant species including white butterwort and sundews thriving in their specific environments. Extensive sphagnum moss formations create an unusual ground structure that visitors encounter throughout the site.
