🌳 The Kurpiowska Primeval Forest owes its name to the Kurpie people inhabiting it, who had a strong cultural identity: vast forests effectively separated them from the people in the neighborhood, and they called themselves “puszczaki” – the “inhabitants of the forest”.
🎋 The Kurpiowska Primeval Forest, otherwise known as the Green Forest, has its own natural borders. The Pisa River in the east, the Orzyc River in the west and the Narew River in the south, into which another Kurpie River flows – the Omulew. 💦The northern and southern border of Kurpie Zielone is two large forest complexes – Piska Forest and Biała Forest.
