Nature in Dąbrowa Górnicza means two post-extraction lakes, Pogoria II and Kuźnica Warężyńska, and the Uroczysko Zielona ecological site.
These are three places for a day beyond the industrial image of the town: water, reeds, birds and a short educational path together.
Uroczysko Zielona is an ecological site of 17.5 ha in the eastern part of Zielona park, established in 2008. Five stops with information about nature have been set along an educational path.
Pogoria II Reservoir is a former sand pit filled with water in 1976-1978. Reeds grow along its banks, and black-headed gulls form a colony there; an ecological site was marked out around it.
Kuźnica Warężyńska, also called Pogoria IV, is an artificial lake of 2005 in a former sand pit of the Czarna Przemsza basin. Its territory is shared by Dąbrowa Górnicza and the Siewierz municipality, and the main beach faces Wojkowice Kościelne.
Yes, the educational path has five stops.
The ecological site was established in 2008. It covers 17.5 ha in the eastern part of Zielona park.
