Bazhov Places Nature Park

Bazhov Places Nature Park is a protected area in Sverdlovsk region that covers several zones with different landscape types. Forests, mountains, lakes, and wetlands make up the territory and create a varied environment.

The Russian Federation designated this territory as a protected area in 2007 to preserve its natural resources and ecosystems. This action aimed to safeguard one of the Urals' important ecological areas for the future.

The park honors Pavel Petrovich Bazhov, a writer whose stories drew inspiration from local minerals and the land itself. His tales shaped how people see and understand this region today.

The park is best explored by staying on marked trails and following protection rules. Visitors should bring suitable clothing and gear for changing mountain weather conditions.

Lake Talkov Stone formed in an abandoned talc mine and displays unusual greenish-white mineral formations. These geological features developed from mining activity and now form distinctive structures within the park.
