  • FORESTS
    Strandja’s forests represent the most ancient remnants of moisture-loving deciduous tertiary vegetation in Europe. They occupy more than 80% of the mountain area and preserve the biggest oak massif in Europe. The presence of evergreen undergrowth of laurel bushes is typical for the oriental beech and durmast forests.
  • PLANTS
    1 700 higher plant species can be seen in Strandja Nature Park– half of the total species composition in Bulgaria. There are 64 relict species in the Park, and for 7 of these species the mountain is the single shelter in Europe.
  • MUSHROOMS
    Of all 100 species of mushrooms described until now in the park, 20 mushroom species are edible, and 14 of those species are widely spread. 9 species are included in the list of the Bulgarian Red Data Book of Mushrooms, of which Agaricus bohusil is critically endangered.
  • INVERTEBRATES
    Among the invertebrates in the Park, there are 168 species of conservation importance, 34 of which are relict species. 16 species are included in the list of the World Red Data Book, and 10 species are listed in the European Red Data Book.
  • AMPHIBIANS AND REPTILES
    Ten species of amphibians of the total of 16 Bulgarian species, and 24 species of reptiles – 70% of the Bulgarian herpetofauna have been identified on territory of the Nature Park. The populations of 13 species of reptiles are of global importance.
  • BIRDS
    269 species of birds can be found within the boundaries of the Park, or two thirds of the entire Bulgarian ornithofauna. The second largest migratory rout of the birds in Europe– Via Pontica passes over Strandja, which brings together the flocks of Northern and Eastern Europe and West Siberia.
  • MAMMALS
    Sixty six species of mammals breed within the boundaries of Strandja Nature Park -70 % of the land mammals of Bulgaria. The populations of the otter and the wild cat are among the most numerous in Europe. Of all 33 species of rats, 27 species can be seen in Strandja.
  • PANORAMAS
    In the nature park everyone’s heart and eyes are filled with the beautiful views of soft mountain heights covered with forests, forming an endless chain, which smoothly spreads next to the picturesque sea coasts.
  • TOURISM
    Strandja Nature Park offers adventures for all your senses – for the eyes (unforgettable views, landscapes and meetings with rare species), for the taste (forest fruits, local cuisine and drinks), for the smell (fragrances of the mountain are irresistible), for the ears (the murmur of Strandja’s rivers and brooks and the songs of numerous birds are amazing).
  • CULTURAL AND HISTORIC HERITAGE
    Strandja has a millennial history, preserving the heritage of several civilizations in its lands and spiritual spaces. The echoes of ancient mystery of unity with divine strength are witnessed in today’s fire dances in Strandja.
