Voronina Nature Reserve

Voronina Nature Reserve is a large protected forest area in Tambov Oblast that stretches along the Vorona River. It contains different habitats including forests, wetlands, and numerous lakes in a zone between steppe and deciduous woodland.

Scientists noted in 1902 that the deciduous forests along the Vorona River had kept their natural character despite being near settlements. The reserve was established later to protect these valuable landscapes for the future.

The reserve takes its name from the Vorona River, which flows through the landscape and shapes the region. People visit to observe wildlife and understand how rivers and forests connect in this part of Russia.

The reserve has marked trails that lead visitors through different parts of the landscape. Good footwear is important because some areas are wet and boggy, and weather can change quickly.

Lake Ramza is the largest water body in the region and attracts thousands of waterfowl during migration seasons. This lake offers watchers a special chance to see large flocks of birds in movement.
