Description

Along the towpath, a great variety of bird species can be discovered on the gravel banks of the Danube and in the surrounding fields and light woodlands. The large colony of Гуска сіра is particularly impressive, joined especially in winter by Гуска білолоба and Tundra Bean Goose. Various duck species, cormorants, and herons can also be easily observed here. From spring onwards, the gravel banks are populated by various waders.
