Romincka Forest, Sacred grove in Ozyorsky District, Russia

Romincka Forest is an extensive woodland area characterized by dense tree coverage and vegetation adapted to wet soil conditions. The landscape features varied plant species distributed across a large territory with mixed forest types.

Soviet scientists conducted experimental plantations of cypress trees in the 1930s to test how they would adapt to the Russian climate. These forestry experiments left lasting marks on the forest's composition that remain visible today.

Local people have long gathered mushrooms and berries here, and these seasonal practices remain woven into community life today. The forest continues to serve as a meeting place where visitors experience these traditional activities firsthand.

Access to certain forest areas requires authorization from environmental authorities, and visitors must stay on marked pathways. It is advisable to check access regulations beforehand and follow designated routes throughout your visit.

The forest contains a stand of cypress trees growing directly in water that create striking reflections on calm surfaces. This unusual sight is a remnant of the experimental plantations that shaped the woodland's character.
