General presentation
Pripiat et Polésie sauvage
Flooding forests, dead arms and wild meadows protect one of Europe's great humid landscapes.
The discovery of Pripiat and Wild Poles is based around the Pripiat National Park, River Safari and Tourau. The stay thus alternates between wetlands, forests, river landscapes and natural areas, giving a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
See all
For a stay of 3 to 6 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: travel currently formally not recommended by France Diplomacy and formalities, access and conditions of visit to check before any project. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.
