Summary

By amending the Nature Conservation Act, it is intended to create a new national park - Alutaguse National Park - for the protection of the typical and rare swamp, forest and coastal landscapes and heritage culture of Eastern Estonia. The national park to be created is located in Ida-Viru county and it will be created on the basis of existing protected areas. The national park to be created in Alutagus includes the nature reserves of Puhatu, Agusalu, Muraka and Selisoo and the landscape reserves of Kurtna, Smolnitsa, Jõuga, Struuga and Mäetagus. The storage area of ​​the upper reaches of the Narva River and the protected area of ​​the Iisaku Park Forest. The area of ​​the planned national park is 43,568 hectares. The entire area is already under protection today, and the extent of restrictions will not increase with the creation of a national park. Of the national park to be created, 42,627 hectares will be state land and 910 hectares will be private land. With the creation of a national park, a unified complex of natural and heritage culture will be created in the region, which will connect the current protected areas with the local values ​​as a whole. Planned the national park consists of several separate pieces, which means that the areas between the existing protected areas will not be merged with the national park to be created.
