The Starczynów Desert (Polish: Pustynia Starczynowska) is an area of formerly exposed but now largely overgrown sand dunes in the Silesian upland between Olkusz and Bukowno in the Malopolska Voivodeship, southern Poland. The desert takes its name from the former village of Starczynów, which was merged into Bukowno in 1958.
