The area has been used as military grounds for over a hundred years and thus it shows little anthropogenic transformation. The “Biedrusko” Protected Landscape Area has been established in 1995 to protect this naturally valuable area. Later this area has been included into the European Ecological Natura 2000 Network as a Special Area of Conservation (site code PLH300001).
