Established in 1985, the park is located in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship of Poland, near the town of Brodnica. The park lies within the historic Brodnica Lake District, which is renowned for its glacially-carved landscape featuring rolling hills, moraines, and kettle lakes. Ecosystems within the park are diverse, consisting of mixed and coniferous forests, peat bogs, and extensive aquatic habitats. The region supports a variety of wildlife including native deer, wild boar, and numerous bird species such as white-tailed eagles and cranes.
