Timerzyaevsky Forest

Timerzyaevsky Forest is a protected woodland area in Tomsk Oblast containing dense stands of pine, birch, and larch trees. The terrain spans several square kilometers and features established trails for visitors to navigate.

Early settlements in Tomsk Oblast during the 17th century relied on this forest as a vital resource for survival and livelihood. The area gained protection as a natural monument to preserve its ecological diversity for future generations.

Local communities have long viewed this forest as a natural space that reflects their connection to the land. Today, people walk through it to experience the wooded landscape that shapes how residents relate to their surroundings.

Trails are accessible year-round, though winters are very cold while summers are mild and suitable for outdoor walks. Proper clothing and marked pathways make exploring the terrain manageable for most visitors.

The woodland functions as a research site where scientists study Siberian plant and animal species found nowhere else. This combination of conservation and active study makes it different from typical recreational forests.
