Пицунда, Natural reserve in Abkhazia, Georgia

The Pitsunda Reserve extends along 7 kilometers of Black Sea coast, containing 800 plant species across 3,770 hectares of protected territory.

The protection of Pitsunda pine grove started in 1885, leading to the establishment of an official nature reserve in 1926 under Soviet administration.

The reserve territory includes archaeological remains of ancient settlements and temples dating from the 1st to 4th centuries CE.

Visitors can reach the reserve within 20 minutes by taking regular shuttle buses or intercity transport from Pitsunda city center.

The reserve protects the last remaining Pitsunda pine forest from the Tertiary period in the Crimean-Caucasian flora, with trees covering 70 hectares.
