Kuzii protected area, Nature reserve in Zakarpattia Oblast, Ukraine
The Kuzii protected area covers a mountainous section of the Carpathians with dense beech forests spanning across multiple ecological zones within Zakarpattia Oblast.
The establishment of Kuzii protected area in 1974 marked a substantial step in protecting ancient beech forests, leading to its inclusion in UNESCO World Heritage listings.
The protected area sits within a region where Ukrainian, Hungarian, Romanian, and Rusyn communities maintain their traditional practices and languages.
Visitors can reach the protected area through regional bus services from Uzhhorod, with guided tours available through the Carpathian Biosphere Reserve administration.
The reserve contains sections of original growth beech forest that remain unaltered by human activity, providing essential data for ecological research.
