Nature/Location
The Srebarna Nature Reserve is located in the northeast region of Bulgaria - a few kilometers from the Danube river, 18 km west of Silistra. It comprises Lake Srebarna and its surroundings and is an important wetland located on the Via Pontica, a bird migration route between Europe and Africa. As a result, it provides nesting and migratory habitat for many endangered bird species.
The reserve embraces 6 km2 of protected area and a buffer zone of 5.4 km2. The lake’s depth varies from 1 to 3 m. There is a museum constructed, where a collection of stuffed species typical for the reserve is arranged.
