Coastal Meadows

0
(0)
Coastal meadows in Matsalu National Park are open grassland areas shaped by traditional grazing practices and seasonal flooding. These meadows are an important part of the park’s cultural and ecological heritage. Maintained by grazing animals, the meadows support a wide range of plant species and provide feeding grounds for many bird species. Their flat, open character creates wide views across wetlands and the coast. For travelers, the coastal meadows offer a peaceful walking environment and a chance to experience Estonia’s traditional rural landscapes.
