More often, peatlands, known as marshes or peat bogs, are perceived as abandoned/unused sites. Exceptions are those peatlands that record tourist functions. This is also the case for Mlaștina de la Iaz, considered by some inhabitants as being “a magical place”. The NWPEAT team conducted interviews with some residents of Iaz and Plopiș during July 2023 in order to identify their perception of the benefits of peatlands.
