Kerkini Wetlands Photo Award is an international photography competition dedicated to the extraordinary natural beauty, biodiversity and cultural heritage of Lake Kerkini National Park, one of Europe's most remarkable wetland ecosystems.
Created to celebrate photographic excellence while promoting environmental awareness and conservation, the competition invites photographers from around the world to capture the unique relationship between nature, wildlife and people within this internationally important wetland landscape.
More than a photography competition, the Kerkini Wetlands Photo Award aims to build an enduring visual archive of Lake Kerkini National Park—showcasing its rich biodiversity, spectacular landscapes and human stories through powerful and authentic photography. By bringing together photographers, conservationists and nature enthusiasts, the competition seeks to inspire appreciation and long-term protection of one of Europe's most valuable wetlands.
The competition culminates each year around World Wetlands Day (2 February) with the announcement of the winners, an awards ceremony, an exhibition and the international promotion of the awarded photographs.
