Cheremske Nature Reserve

Cheremske Nature Reserve is a protected area in Volyn Oblast that encompasses extensive forests and wetlands with distinct habitat types. The landscape alternates between sedge-sphagnum bogs and hardwood forests, creating a varied natural environment throughout the site.

The area was established as a protected reserve in 2001, marking an important step to safeguard the natural landscapes of the Polesie region. This designation helped preserve the fragile ecosystems from environmental pressures.

Scientists and researchers study the natural processes within the reserve, gathering data about the interactions between plant and animal species.

Visitors need a permit to enter the site and can walk only on designated trails. It is advisable to go with a guide to properly experience the natural environment and respect reserve regulations.

The site contains peat layers reaching depths of 10 meters, formed naturally after the last Ice Age. These ancient peat deposits hold records of millions of years of natural history and shelter rare organisms.
