Slano Kopovo

The protected area contains salt marshes and wetlands formed from an ancient meander of the Tisza River, covering 976 hectares of land.

The site holds remnants of a church from the 9th-11th centuries, indicating early human settlements in this region of Vojvodina.

Scientists conduct research on halophytic vegetation, particularly the endangered Salicornia europaea, which maintains its sole continental population in this reserve.

The reserve implements regulated activities including controlled hunting, livestock grazing, and collection of medicinal mud under environmental monitoring protocols.

The wetland regularly hosts over 20,000 waterbirds, including rare species such as Numenius tenuirostris and Branta ruficollis during migration periods.
