Tinovul Poiana Stampei

A wooden boardwalk extends 800 meters across the peat bog, leading visitors through a forest of pine trees, mosses, ferns, and cranberry shrubs.

The natural reserve gained international recognition in 2011 when it was designated as a wetland area covering 681.8 hectares in the Dorna Depression.

Educational panels along the trail path illustrate the formation process of the peat bog and explain the significance of local flora and fauna species.

The trail starts near the Dornișoara forestry road marker, takes approximately 1.5 hours to complete, and remains accessible throughout the year without entrance fees.

The nutrient-poor soil conditions cause pine trees to grow slowly, resulting in trees of different ages maintaining similar trunk circumferences of 20-22 centimeters.
