Kislovodsk National Park

Kislovodsk National Park is a protected reserve covering around 966 hectares that extends from the city center to the slopes of Dzhinal Ridge. The territory includes both landscaped zones with historic structures and undisturbed forest areas across different elevations.

The park began in 1827 when military personnel planted linden trees along the fortified springs. This initial effort established the foundation for its later growth into a major regional destination.

The park grew around natural mineral springs that have drawn people seeking wellness since the 1800s. It remains a gathering place where visitors experience both the restorative landscape and the area's long-established healing reputation.

The park has clearly marked walking trails through various sections, ranging from maintained gardens to more natural paths at higher elevations. Visitors should prepare for different difficulty levels and wear comfortable footwear accordingly.

The area contains more than 250 tree and shrub species, including pines and beeches in lower elevations and natural forests in higher areas. This botanical variety makes it rewarding for visitors interested in plant life.
