Białowieża National Park (Polish: Białowieski Park Narodowy) is a National Park in Poland.

The total area of the park is 152.2 square kilometres . It is located 62 km southeast of Białystok (Poland). It is home to the world's largest population of European bison (Polish: żubr), the continent's heaviest land animals. There is a border crossing for hikers and cyclists within the forest.

History The park's formal beginning was the Forest Reserve inspectorate (Polish: Rezerwat) established in 1921. The inspectorate was transformed into the National Park in Białowieża on 11 August 1932 by the Second Polish Republic. After World War II, the forest was divided between the People's Republic of Poland and the Belarusian SSR of the Soviet Union. The People's Republic of Poland reopened the Białowieża National Park in 1947.

The idea of creating a national park locally is about 200 years old The idea of creating a national park locally is about 200 years old. However, the genuine protection efforts which are being continued today are centuries older.

Wildlife Bialowieza Forest is the habitat for vast as the climate zone number of animal species. Starting from invertebrates: molluscs, worms, spiders, insects and many others, to the vertebrates: fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals - previously found in the forest presence of more than 12 thousands of species of animals. In Poland there are about 35-40 thousand. It is estimated that puszczańska fauna is diagnosed in about 50%, so the actual number of species inhabiting this forest massif can count about 25,000.

Białowieża National Park is one of the biggest tourist atractions in Poland, every year over 140000 tourists visit it.
