The Bug valley from the State border, i.e. from Niemirów all the way to the Zegrze Reservoir is subjected - due to its unique natural and landscape merits –to different forms of nature preservation such as reserves, landscape parks, and has been included into the European system of preserved areas “Natura 2000”. The natural resources can contribute to development of the region by intensification of tourism, on the other hand it can lead to a limitation of potential economical use of the Bug as a shipping waterway. This paper presents ecological and hydro-morphological conditions of the region and a proposal of intensification of tourist activities along the waterway, and variants of tourist servicing, which would not be in contradiction with the present forms of nature preservation applied to the Bug valley
