About Kampinos National Park
Kampinos National Park (Polish: Kampinoski Park Narodowy) is a national park in east-central Poland, in Masovian Voivodeship, on the northwest outskirts of Warsaw. It is Poland's second-largest national park by area and the only national park in the Masovian Voivodeship. It has a sister park agreement with Indiana Dunes National Park, Indiana, United States. The idea of creating a park in the area was first proposed in the 1920s. In the 1930s, the first forest reserves were opened: Granica, Sieraków and Zamczysko. Today, these reserves are much larger and are strictly protected.
