Dzhamgarovsky Ponds, Protected reservoir in Moscow Region, Russia
Dzhamgarovsky Ponds is a substantial reservoir system in the northern Moscow Region that contains multiple interconnected water bodies and shallow areas. The water supports various fish species and serves as a habitat for migratory and resident water birds.
The ponds were created during the Soviet period as part of water management initiatives and recreational development for local communities. Since then the site has remained an important resource for fishing and outdoor activities.
Local fishermen and families visit the ponds throughout the year for traditional angling and seasonal gatherings. The site serves as a meeting place where people spend time in nature near their homes.
The ponds are accessible by public transportation from nearby urban areas, with parking available near the main access points. The terrain around the water is relatively flat and easy to navigate for most visitors.
Natural springs beneath the ponds maintain stable water temperatures throughout the year, creating conditions that support fish species found nowhere else in the region. This makes it an important refuge for certain populations.
