The Ługi Helenowskie Reserve is a peat bog reserve located at the watershed of the Zwolenka and Zagożdżonka rivers. The area, half marshy, undergoes dynamic changes throughout the year. Particularly in late summer and autumn, when the bogs dry up, you can admire its different face. Our Osada is located in direct proximity to the reserve, and the sounds of birds coming from its protected hideaways can be heard from our houses. Common cuckoos, cranes, thrushes, and even common buzzards – a perfect antidote to the noise of the city. Below the tree crowns, in the moist grasses, colorful lizards and adders hide, while red foxes, moose, and wild boar take cover in the thickets. All this is set against the backdrop of rare, protected plants like bog bilberries, round-leaved sundews, and marsh cranberries. The flora and fauna here are full of life, and we respect its cycle, proud of such close neighbors.
