Browsk Forest District - Puszcza Białowieska - Zwolnij Naturalnie - Browsk Forest District

The geobotanical division places the Białowieża Forest, including the Browsk Forest District, in the south-western borders of the Northern Division, and this is due to the specificity of the flora and fauna of this area. According to the IBL nature and forest regionalization, the discussed area is located in the Mazury-Podlasie region of the natural and forestry area, in the Białowieża Forest District.

The proper Białowieża Forest, within its historic boundaries, is adjacent to the north-western Puszcza Lacka and the north-east Puszcza Świsłocka. Changes in borders States, political and organizational turmoil, as well as various concepts of state forest management, did not avoid the Białowieża Forest area. Finally, as a result of the liquidation of neighboring units and transfer of part of the stands to the Białowieża National Park, our Forest District has been shaped in its present form. The area of ​​Browsk Forest District is divided into three forest areas; Browsk, Lacka Puszcza, Narewka, and those on 12 forest areas. The area of ​​the Forest District is 20,417.52 ha. The Nadleśnictwo Forest District is located in the Podlasie Voivodship in the Hajnowski poviat, the communes of Hajnówka, Narewka and Narew. It's worth knowing that the city, from which it was given the name - Browsk after the Second World War remained on the Belarusian side. Thanks to this, it is the only forest inspectorate in Poland with a "foreign" name.The area of ​​the Forest Inspectorate is available to both tourists and pickers of forest fruit plants, in a word for everyone. for rebuilding, once distorted, forest complexes, towards their re-naturalization.
