An evaluation was made of the status of inundation area of the left bank of the Danube, a territory extending between Dobrohošt village (at river kilometre marker 1842) and Sap village (at river kilometre marker 1811). In the first part of this paper, its authors characterise the current landscape structure and territory functions, with a focus on nature conservation priorities. In the second part of the paper, a primary characterisation of actual and proposed water management measures are described. The next part evaluates the actual status and expected progress of the area with respect to the effects of anthropogenic factors. The fact is highlighted that integrated landscape planning is required for sustainable management of the area. The final part of the paper constitutes a review of those measures supporting land use optimisation according to the restoration of ecosystem functions.
