Lisinsky Zakaznik is a protected natural area in Tosnensky District that spreads across forest zones with diverse plant species and animal populations. The reserve encompasses several ecological zones that together create habitats for local wildlife.
The reserve was created following Soviet traditions of establishing protected territories in forest regions. This practice developed into a system that safeguarded natural spaces from intensive economic use.
This nature reserve represents Russian conservation practices, where specific areas receive protection status while maintaining controlled economic activities.
The area is accessible from Saint Petersburg via the M10 highway and railway lines in the region. Visitors should check access rules before planning a visit, as some sections may have restricted entry.
The reserve allows controlled economic activities such as hunting and forestry within its boundaries. This dual-use system sets it apart from stricter reserve types that prohibit economic activities entirely.
