According to the level of protection there are usually singled out three zones for which the particular plans of the care are made to preserve their ecological stability and other functions because of they have been established.

    National park - a large area at least influenced by the human activity, that main function is the protection of nature ecosystems of the region. Plants, animals and the environment have an extraordinary scientific importance. They are divided into three zones (strict nature, operated nature and border ones). The most appreciated parts of national parks are proclaimed to be peaceful regions where to move  is allowed only on the set roads aside.
    Protected landscape area - also huge territory (generally 100 to 1,000 square kilometres) with harmonically created landscape and considerable part in natural ecosystems, whose final looks is a result of the combination of natural parts and the human activity. Protected landscape areas can preserve even monuments of the historical settlements. The economic and holiday utilisation  depends on a dissection of the area into independent zones of the gradated protection with the goal to keep an ecological stability and a natural state of the area.
