It is worth remembering that Załęczański Landscape Park was established relatively not long ago, back in the 1960s, in this area there was, among others, a village of about 60houses named Jarzębie were the lands largely belonging to the family of Jarząb family and which lands expropriated by the communist authorities and not legally regulated to this day are now part of today's Landscape Park the authorities of that time as well as the present have never settled with the then owners of these lands
15.07.2015The Park includes part of the Wieluńska Upland, areas lying in the bend of the Varta River (the so-called Załęczański Arc) and the Varta gorges through the Wieluńska Upland (Działoszyński and Krzeczowski). The area of the park is 14,750 hectares, and the protection zone is 12,010 hectares. About 53% of the park's area is forest, 34% arable land, 10% grassland and water, and 3% settlement. The monadnock hills found here are the northernmost such formations in Poland. The beautiful section of the Warta River, with its two gorges and lush vegetation of riverside swamps and oxbow lakes, is worth seeing, as well as extensive forest complexes, including the over 100-hectare Dąbrowa Reserve in Niżankowice, in the forests inside the Warta's lap, and the Suchy Ług peat bog near Bobrowniki. There are numerous karst phenomena (karst funnels, karst caves, dry valleys). The rich flora of ZPK and its buffer zone counts almost 770 taxa of vascular plants, about 100 species of bryophytes and about 80 species of lichens, currently in the area of ZPK there are 39 species of vascular plants under protection, including 25 under strict protection, in addition, about 30 species of plants rare on a national or regional scale, mountain species and those occurring on the border of geographical ranges were found here. A significant part of the Park's area, about 49%, is occupied by forests. Only small fragments are valuable, multi-species stands . Bole habitats dominate. For the most part, these are pine monocultures of poor condition, on very poor sandy soil. This is especially true of forests in the interior of the "Great Arc".
