Daursky Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in Chita, Russia
The reserve contains extensive steppes, wetlands, and lakes spread across 84,100 hectares in the southeastern region of the Transbaikal Territory near Mongolia.
Established in December 1987, the reserve gained UNESCO World Heritage status in 2017 as part of the Landscapes of Dauria designation with Mongolia.
The territory serves as a research center where scientists from different countries study rare species including the Pallas cat and the endangered Daurian crane.
Visitors need special permits to access designated areas of the reserve, with guided tours available during summer months through the administration office.
The reserve functions as a major stopover point along the East Asian-Australasian flyway for migratory birds and hosts large-scale migrations of Mongolian gazelles.
