Description
Łęższczok nature reserve covers an area of 408 hectares and is one of the largest in Poland. It has a very rich fauna and flora. Due to the numerous ponds, there are many water birds and waders here and it is a great place for birdwatching. Half of the species of birds living in Poland can be seen here. Two hiking trails and one cycle route pass through the area and there is an observation tower. Among the birds you can see here are Red-crested Pochard, Great Bittern, Little Bittern, Great Reed Warbler, Savi's Warbler, Golden Oriole and Western Marsh Harrier.
