Movila lui Burcel, Nature reserve in Vaslui County, Romania
The 12-hectare protected area contains 290 plant species and sits at an altitude of 390 meters near the Vaslueț River in Central Moldavian Plateau.
The reserve received official protection status in 1973 and was declared a natural area of national interest through Law No. 5 on March 6, 2000.
