Kołowskie Parowy Nature Reserve

Highlight • Forest

The reserve is located on the slopes of moraine hills, diversified by ravines, streams, and springs. The Utrata stream flows through this area, which appears and disappears from the surface.
The aim of the protection is to preserve the Pomeranian beech forest in various typological variations with rich herbaceous plant communities in the undergrowth. Over a hundred-year-old beeches reach a height of up to 40 m. Rare and endangered plants occur here, including forest fescue, fumewort, one-flowered pearl grass, lanceolate spleenwort, and common madder. Among the protected plants are, for example, broad-leaved helleborine, blue helleborine, guelder rose, common buckthorn, and sweet woodruff. The bottom of the ravine is occupied by spring beech forest.
The reserve is named after engineer Józef Lewandowski, an outstanding forester, a pioneer in the development of the forests of Western Pomerania. A glacial erratic boulder with a plaque commemorating this man, who was distinguished for the forests, is located in the southeastern part of the reserve, at the crossroads of roads from Szczecin-Śmierdnica and from Kołowo.
For those who want to get to know the landscape of the Kołowskie Ravines better, two tourist trails are available. The Red Trail named after Stanisław Pawelski runs from Szczecin Kijewo to Glinna. The Blue Trail named after Stanisław Groński runs from Szczecin Zdroje to Zdunowo.

Kolovo - Beech Forest

Highlight • Settlement

A picturesque settlement in the heart of the Bukowa Forest. In the village itself there are two ponds with piers and a historic church from the end of the 19th century. It is characterized by a microclimate characterized by strong winds, a vegetation period shorter by two weeks than on the outskirts of the Bukowa Forest, and the longest persistence of snow cover.

Szczecin Radio and Television Transmitter

Highlight • Monument

The center was put into use in 1963. It consists of two antenna masts - measuring 61 and 267 m high together with antennas, which are a characteristic point of reference in the entire area of the Bukowe Hills, perfectly visible from a distance of several kilometers, and the technical back-up building. Thanks to its favorable location, significant height and high radiation power, the transmitters placed on this mast cover a significant part of the West Pomeranian Voivodeship

Resting place by the boulder

Highlight • Natural Monument

Erratic boulder "Heart of the Forest" with engraved stylized inscription: "Here time has a different dimension. Slow down, here it beats... HEART OF THE FOREST". The boulder set in 2004 on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the State Forests. Right next to it, there is a resting place with bonfires and sheds, benches and tables.
