Descrizione

Košutnjak oak forest is a former royal deer-hunting reserve. The Kosutnjak hill is 220 m high and the forest covers an area of 330 hectares. Over time, a transitional mixed vegetation of deciduous forests was formed, for example, the Hajdučka česma reserve is a preserved part of the forest community of English oak, the composition of which includes hornbeam, elm and a few silver linden trees, and shrub species of aspen, viburnum, hawthorn, etc. About 95 species of birds can be found on the territory of Košutnjak.

The forest is home to Picchio rosso maggiore, Picchio rosso mezzano, Picchio rosso minore, Picchio cenerino, Picchio verde and Picchio nero. But also many other forest birds like Allocco, Rampichino comune, Picchio muratore, Tordela, and Codirosso.

Hajdučka Česma (Brigand's Fountain), at the center of the area, divides the forest into northern and southern parts. The northern part is probably more productive for birding, while the southern part has denser and darker forests. The western side of the forest near the DIF building (Faculty of Sport and Physical Education) consists of more mosaic habitats, with species like Frosone, Ciuffolotto, and Tordo sassello. There are also several clearances within the forest and on the forest edge, like around Hajdučka Česma and Ski Slopes Košutnjak at the north, that add a bit of variance to the forest habitat. ​
