Wigry National Park


Wigry National Park, located in northeastern Poland, was established in 1989 and is one of the country's younger national parks. It occupies the central part of the Suwałki region, east of the city of Suwałki, and borders the Augustów Forest. Over half of the park is covered by forests, and one-fifth consists of water. Within its boundaries, there are 42 natural water bodies, including the famous Wigry Lake and dystrophic lakes known as "suchary." The scenic Czarna Hańcza River, a popular kayaking route, flows through the park, along with smaller rivers such as Kamionka, Wiatrołuża, and Maniówka. The park is characterized by a rich diversity of ecosystems - water, forest, peatland, and agricultural areas - which supports a wide variety of plant, fungi, and animal species. As a result, the area has been included in the Natura 2000 network of protected European sites.
