Eye of the Sea, Tatra Mountains, Poland (Mayosophy1 / CC BY-SA 4.0)

Poland has 23 national parks, ranging from very small to well-known throughout Europe. All are protected, restricted areas that are designed to help nature develop as it remains untouched. Christopher Skutela, author, teacher, and tour guide, leads a visual journey to several of them, as well as explaining how to visit them while traveling through Poland. The parks include Tatra, site of the country’s highest mountain; Bialowieza, a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in the midst of the old-growth Bialowieza Forest; Slowinski, home to sand dunes and lakes; Biebrza, the largest national park in Poland at more than 220 square miles; and Pieniny, the country’s first national park and a comparatively petite 9 square miles.
