Another series of educational activities for children is behind us!

This year we visited the Czerwone bog woodland with almost 300 pupils and their teachers from nearby primary schools.

The students gained knowledge about peat bogs and experience in working with a map and conducting basic observations and measurements.

They had an opportunity, among others, to measure the pH, temperature, and transparency of water, conduct a dendrological study showing the age of trees and their annual growth, and observe the sky, determining the types of clouds, the degree of sky coverage and weather conditions.

These are all the lessons planned in the project.

The entrance to the peat bog was led by a forest officer from the Nowy Targ State Forestry Authority, on the basis of a relevant consent.

Working together for a green Europe
„Carpathians Unite Conservation of Orawsko-Nowotarskie Peatlands” benefits from a 849 910 EUR grant from Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway through the EEA Grants. The aim of the project is to protect valuable natural habitats: a raised bog and marshy forest communities in its vicinity, located in the Czerwone bog woodland nature reserve (one of the Polish Ramsar sites), as well as other wetland ecosystems in the Orawsko-Nowotarskie Peatlands complex. Co-financing from the state budget amounts to 149 984 EUR.
