Żebra Żubra Trail
Ścieżka Żebra Żubra
A boardwalk across marshes and river valley wetlands that links the village with the bison reserve on foot.
The Bison's Ribs Trail is a free wooden boardwalk about 3.5 kilometers long on the west side of Białowieża village. It crosses the Narew River valley wetlands, alder bogs, and woodland. The trail is named for its shape, which resembles a bison's ribs. Birdwatching points and interpretive signs line the route, and in spring and summer you may see frogs, cranes, and a variety of forest birds. Many visitors use it as a walking route to the European bison reserve. The round trip takes about 2 hours, and the boards are slippery after rain.
