Warta Mouth National Park, in the Lubusz Voivodeship of western Poland, is the youngest national park in Poland, established on 19 June 2001 from the former Slonsk Nature Reserve and part of the Ujscie Warty Landscape Park. Covering about 80 square kilometers around the lowest stretch of the Warta River near its confluence with the Oder on the Polish-German border, its marshy terrain supports around 245 recorded bird species, roughly 160 of which nest there.
