Poienile cu narcise din Dumbrava Vadului, Nature reserve in Vad, Romania
Poienile cu narcise din Dumbrava Vadului is a nature reserve with oak forests and meadows where millions of white daffodils bloom in May. The area contains multiple woodland types and grasslands that support diverse plant communities throughout the landscape.
The area received formal protection status in 2000, establishing it as an officially designated nature reserve. This legal designation helped ensure the long-term conservation of its natural habitats and wild plant species.
The place draws visitors who come to witness the white daffodils in their natural setting, where the flowers hold special meaning for the local community. The spring bloom has become a moment when people return to this landscape to experience its renewal.
The best time to visit is in May when the daffodils are in full bloom and cover the meadows with white flowers. The road access to Vad village makes reaching the protected area fairly straightforward.
The landscape contains six distinct natural habitat types, including oak forests and riparian woodlands that are typical for the region. Each of these zones supports different plant species and creates a varied ecosystem within a relatively compact area.
