Nature in Cieszyn means three forest reserves: the two town woods on the Olza and the Puńcówka, and the Kopce reserve above the Olza escarpment.

All three protect broadleaved woodland by rivers. It is a plan for a spring walk and for those who value quiet away from the town centre.

Which reserves in Cieszyn are the oldest?

The Lasek Miejski nad Olzą in Błogocice was created in 1961 to protect the spring snowflake-like cieszynianka and natural hornbeam woodland. The Lasek Miejski nad Puńcówką dates from the same year, a floristic reserve of 7.74 ha with a foothill elm and ash forest.
