LANDSCAPE

Bledowska Desert

POLAND

The Bledowska Sands are the largest accumulation of loose sand away from any sea in Central Europe, deposited thousands of years ago by a melting glacier. The appearance of a desert landscape has been created since the Middle Ages, as an accidental effect of mining (zinc, silver, coal), but the specific geological structure has been of great importance - the average thickness of the sand layer is about 40 m (maximum 70 m), which facilitated the fast and deep drainage.
