Flooded Forest, Czolpino Poland

 Remains of the oak-beech forest, which grew in this place before 3 thousand. years. After strong storms, the sea rinses out of the sand the powerful trunks of the trees, preserved by preserving salt properties. The forest, also called the dead, appears periodically on various sections of the beach 



The study of exposed trunks showed that the trees burned before they were sunk. One of the hypotheses is that it was a result of the settlers. According to another 3 thousand. I had a great fire in the wilderness.

Just as the sand-dunes, heaped one upon another, hide each the first, so in life the former deeds are quickly hidden by those that follow after.

The Dune of Orzechowo ...

  Its main function is to preserve unique sand dunes full of diverse vegetation and fauna. It is a real rarity of seaside landscape, 600 metres away from the coast of Baltic. From the top of the biggest dune (50 metres above sea level) formed by front-side the moraine, there is a panoramatic view, including a nearby city of Ustka.
