Baum's grove

Baum's grove is a protected natural site in Almaty with a system of straight paths that divide it into distinct sections of trees. The area offers multiple walking routes, seating areas, and informational displays to help visitors navigate and learn about what they see.

The site was established in 1894 as part of a regional effort to create green spaces and was originally much larger. Over time the area underwent changes, but it has remained a protected natural zone dedicated to conservation.

The grove serves as a place where people come to experience the local plant and animal life firsthand. Visitors can observe how the different species coexist within the organized landscape that surrounds them.

The site is accessible year-round as the paths and facilities are maintained across all seasons. Visitors should wear comfortable walking shoes and allow time to explore the different sections at a relaxed pace.

The grove supports a variety of wildlife with over 220 vertebrate species living within its bounds including numerous bird types as well as mammals and amphibians. This abundance of animal life makes it an important refuge for the region's fauna.
