Nobelskyi National Nature Park

Nobelskyi National Nature Park is a protected area in Rivne Oblast that comprises twelve lakes, with Nobel Lake being the largest, along with five rivers that create distinct aquatic habitats. The landscape features a mix of water bodies and wetlands that form interconnected ecosystems throughout the park.

The park was established in 2019 to protect the ecosystems of Volhynian Polesia. This creation reflected a broader effort to safeguard the natural habitats of the region.

The park holds importance for the region as a place where waterways and wetlands define how people experience nature locally. Visitors sense the strong connection between residents and these natural systems, which have shaped life in Volhynian Polesia for generations.

The park can be explored through marked hiking trails and narrow-gauge railway routes that offer different ways to experience the landscape. Some sections remain closed to visitors in order to protect wildlife, which helps visitors understand the purpose of the protected area.

Two of the park's lakes, Ostrivske and Zasvitske, have unusual chemical compositions that set them apart from typical water bodies. These distinctive properties make the park a remarkable place for visitors interested in exploring different types of ecosystems.
