Drawienski Nationaal Park
Drawienski National Park was established in 1990 and protects an area of 11,019 ha, of which 82 percent are forests and 10 percent are water. It includes a part of the Drawa Primeval Forest, located in the central district of the Walecko-Mysliborskie Lakeland. In January 1996, a special protective zone of 35,590 ha surrounding the Park, was established. The Park area may be accessed from ca. 60 km of tourist trails and routes, which include the Drawa River route. The lower section of this river (about 30 km) is one of the best known canoeing runs in Poland.
The fauna of the Park consists of at least 40 mammal species, and includes beaver, marten, otter, and game animals such as the deer, wild boar and fox. The birds inhabiting the Park include osprey, kite, white-tailed eagle, lesser spotted eagle, goldeneye, merganser, eagle owl, other species of owl, black stork and dipper. The aquatic fauna includes numerous fish such as bream, perch, grayling, pikes, lavaret, European white fish, bulltrout, barbel, eel and vimba, as well as the recently restored salmon, which lives only in very clean water

Warta National Park
One of the best and most accessible places, as far as ornithology is concerned, is the Warta River Mouth "Ujscie Warty" National Park, located where the Warta River meets the Odra River, in the north-west of the Lubuskie region. Its landscape is made up of water-logged, periodically inundated meadows, willow bushes, channels, old river beds, lanes and causeways. The Warta reserve (formerly known as the Slonsk Nature Reserve) is one of the biggest bird sanctuaries in Europe. Hundreds of hectares of almost inaccessible, regularly flooded meadows make an ideal refuge for mainly mud and water birds. Some 245 species live here and during the spring and autumn migrations up to 200,000 birds can be seen at the confluence of the Warta and the Odra. To watch them, you can walk or bike around the park with the aid of a map or a local English-speaking guide. Some of the many bird rarities you should look out for in and around the Warta bird reserve include: Aquatic Warbler; Great Bittern; Black Stork; Black Tern; Bluethroat; Corncrake (Corn Crake); Great Reed Warbler; Hoopoe; Lesser Spotted Eagle; Little Bittern; Red-backed Shrike; Red-necked Grebe; and the White-tailed Eagle.
