Established in 1996, The Barycz Valley Landscape
Park is shared between Lower Silesian
Voivodeship and Greater Poland Voivodeship,
near the river Barycz. It is 50 km northeast of
Wroclaw and covers the area of 8740 ha. Due to
variety of natural habitats, the site is embodied in
the Natura 2000 network. The Park includes
nature reserves such as the Milicz Ponds
reserve.The Barycz Valley is the kingdom of birds,
the largest complex of ponds in Europe, one of
the most charming corners of Poland and the
largest landscape park in Poland.
THE MILICZ PONDS RESERVE
The area of 5,324.31 ha covers most of fish ponds and some
part of adjacent forests, meadows and other lands. The
reserve includes 6 separate complexes of ponds created to
preserve the rich diversity of numerous bird species
associated with ponds and wetland ecosystems, many of
which are endangered and rare. The reserve is also subject
to international protection within the framework of the
Ramsar Convention. The Milicz Ponds are one of the most
important refuges of Greylag goose in Europe.

WARBLER alders, old oaks and reed islands are ideal
breeding sites. Nearly 300 species of birds nest here, out of
which about 170 regularly. Among them the largest group
are water and mud species breeding on the Milicz Ponds.
In the Barycz Valley there are many species of birds
characteristic of the area, which hardly occur in other

FORESTS OF THE BARYCZ VALLEY LANDSCAPE PARK
Forests cover 27% of the park. Forest stands on fertile
habitats include riparian and alder forests as well as
hornbeam and beech forests. They are of great
ecological value and occupy large areas of the swampy
Barycz Valley. Poorer habitats are covered with pine or
mixed forests. However, due to the abundance of ponds
and wetlands, plant communities of waters, rushes, bogs
and meadows are predominant in the vegetation of the
area.
