Кутса, Regional nature reserve in Kandalaksha District, Russia
The Kutsa Reserve extends over 520 square kilometers of wilderness, containing rivers Tumcha and Kutsayoki, lakes Niluttiyarvi and Vuoriyarvi in Murmansk Oblast.
The territory gained protection status as a natural park in 1938 when it belonged to Finland, and later became a Russian regional reserve in 1994.
The Pyhakyuru gorge within the reserve holds religious significance for the Sami people and contains numerous rare plant species in its environment.
Visitors need permission from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Ecology of Murmansk Oblast, located at 1 Kolsky Avenue in Murmansk, to enter the reserve.
The reserve features eleven fish species in its waters, including brown trout and pike, while golden eagles and owls inhabit its diverse landscape.
