Olszyna Źródliskowa pod Lubiechowem Dolnym Nature Reserve

Olszyna Źródliskowa pod Lubiechowem Dolnym is a forest reserve of 1 ha, on the north-western edge of Lubiechowo Dolne, within Cedynia Landscape Park. It was established in 1973, and supervision is exercised by the Chojna Forest District.

What the reserve protects

The main aim of protection is giant horsetail, a species rare in West Pomerania and typical of springs. The reserve also protects a fragment of forest: ash riparian forest and acidic lowland beech forest with protected plants, such as broad-leaved helleborine and common ivy. The area is under active protection.

Trail by the boundary

By the western boundary of the reserve runs the blue-marked Terminal Moraine Hills Trail (Szlak Wzgórz Morenowych) to the Bielinek reserve. The reserve is small, so it is easiest to see while walking along this trail.

Practical information
