White Carpathians - Protected Areas
POD ZITKOVSKYM VRCHEM
This small-scale protected area comprises a complex of meadows and pastures with scattered shrubs and trees, which makes the site valuable from landscape conservation point of view. It also conserves diverse habitats – from wetland to woodland fringe communities.
the Pink Globe Orchid (Traunsteinera globosa)
the Fragrant Orchid (Gymnadenia conopsea)
In the past, the biodiversity was significantly decreased by excessive use of fertilizers (1989). The nature conservation efforts aim at a return to a more favourable status.
Type of protected area under CZ national legislation: Nature Monument
Managed by: the state, through Bile Karpaty (White Carpathians) Protected Landscape Area Administration
