The site covers fragment of Littoral Marshes Plain (Rownina Blot Przymorskich) in the bifurcation of the Piasnica river and old river bed of Piasnica. Wet meadows and rush vegetation overgrow small part of the plain.

Within the borders of the site old river beds of Piasnica surrounded by diverse mosaic of forest (mostly birch-oak forests) and non-forest vegetation are situated. There are also patches of willow thickets and bog myrtle thickets. On the remaining area mixed birch-oak forests dominate.

Habitat types existing within the site:

  • Old acidophilous oak woods with Quercus robur on sandy plains  
  • Molinia meadows on calcareous, peaty or clavey-silt-laden soils (Molinion caeruleae)

The area includes the Piasnickie Laki nature reserve (56.23 ha; 1959) in the Nadmorski Landscape Park (18804 ha; 1979). The site is a part of the Promotional Forest Complex of Lasy Oliwsko-Dar¿lubskie (43 172 ha).
