The park contains the 'Stawy Przemkowskie' complex, a series of fish ponds dating back to the 16th century.
Large sections of the park were used as a training range for the Soviet Army until 1992, leaving behind specific post-industrial landscapes now reclaimed by nature.
It is a designated 'Natura 2000' site, protecting specific habitats for rare bird species like the Lesser Spotted Eagle.
The park is home to one of the largest herds of red deer in the region.
It features the 'Dąb Chrobry', a centuries-old pedunculate oak that is one of the oldest in Poland, though it was significantly damaged by fire in 2014.
The landscape is shaped by glacial activity, resulting in sandy outwash plains interspersed with moist hollows.
Przemkowski Park Krajobrazowy is a protected landscape area characterized by post-military lands, expansive peatlands, and pine-oak forests. The park spans over 22,000 hectares, encompassing the remnants of a former Soviet military training ground. It features one of the largest concentrations of wetlands in Lower Silesia, serving as a critical nesting site for cranes and various migratory birds. The terrain includes dry sand dunes, transition moors, and ponds formed by historic fish farming. Visitors can explore a network of educational paths designed to highlight the region's specific biodiversity and unique soil conditions. The park also protects rare flora, including carnivorous sundew species found in the marshy sections.

Bring high-quality binoculars for birdwatching, especially near the ponds.
Wear insect repellent to protect against mosquitoes and ticks, particularly when visiting the wetlands.
Check the park's official map beforehand, as the expansive nature of the former training grounds can be disorienting.
Do not wander off marked trails, especially in former military areas where ground conditions may be unstable or contain historical hazards.
Stay strictly on marked paths to avoid disturbing wildlife and to minimize the risk of encountering remnant unexploded ordnance in former military zones.
