Field Excursion
During the field excursion to Stołowe Mountains National Park we will present the main results of our studies conducted in this area within three research grants financed by the General Directorate of the State Forests, Warsaw, via Stołowe Mountains National Park, e.g.:
- Recognition and assessment of the current state of natural habitats in the vicinity of the Czerwona Woda River (2017),
- Recognition and assessment of the current state of natural habitats in the vicinity of the Kudowski Potok River and its main tributaries (2021),
- Recognition and assessment of the current state of natural habitats in the vicinity of forest springs in Stołowe Mountains National Park (2023).
Moreover, we plan to visit Szczeliniec Wielki – the highest peak of the Stołowe Mountains, and Błędne Skały – a rock formation forming a picturesque labyrinth.
