Dupã Luncã swamp p.a. (48,7 ha), Voºlobeni
PERMITTED AND FORBIDDEN ACTIVITIES WITHIN THE PROTECTED AREAS
This swamp is located 2 km south from Voslobeni, not far from DN12. It was formed at the confluence of the Mures River and the Senetea and Ponc brooks. It covers 48.7 ha of land on both sides of the Mures River.
The peat here is about 2-3 meters thick. We can see here the rare common peony (Paeonia officinalis), the marsh violet (Viola palustris), the globeflower (Trollius europaeus) and the checkered lily (Fritillaria meleagris). In the swamp the Spirea salicifolia and the Pedicularis sceptrum-carolinum are considered rarities.
PERMITTED AND FORBIDDEN ACTIVITIES WITHIN THE PROTECTED AREAS
Protecting
the natural environment is our legal duty. A nature reserve is an area
of a particular status, enforced by law, where not just a couple of rare
species of plants, animals, geological formations or
archeological-paleontological objects can be found and need to be
protected. To ensure, that these protected elements will remain or
survive, we need to protect their living habitat as well. The natural
values and the biodiversity of a given area offer a spiritual
experience, and an aesthetic enjoyment, thus contributes to a spiritual
recreation of the explorer of nature. Harghita County is one of the few
places, endowed with several authentic natural treasures. These gems of
nature represent an economical asset, and by this, an improper visitor’s
behavior can endanger its content and existence. Protecting our
environmental treasures is a collective task and duty. The managing
organizations which are responsible for these reserves have been already
assigned, and they can enforce or apply special rules for visitors
regarding protected area. Below you can find some recommendations
concerning the avoidance of natural damages:
- do not leave the marked trails
- do not litter or leave garbage behind
- keep the peace and quiet by avoiding to use strong sources of music
- do not tear any plants down, including the protected species
- camp only in specially designed and marked areas
- make fire only in special designated areas, and make sure that you put you put it out before leaving
- do not throw lit cigarette butts
- avoid using motorized vehicles in the vicinity of the protected areas, and use only the marked accessibility routes
- enjoy the sounds and sights of nature and do not disturb others in enjoying these as well
By

of Harghita County, we wish to contribute to the promotion of a
responsible and eco-conscious form of tourism. To a better success we
