Połoniny

Poloniny is a national park located in the eastern part of Slovakia, right next to the border with Poland and Ukraine . The name refers to the mountain pastures well known to us from the Bieszczady Mountains , i.e. unique, picturesque meadows growing on the mountain slopes above the forest line. The biggest advantage of this region is, of course, the wildlife. It is thanks to her that the Poloniny National Park was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List .
