Baymaksky District

Baymaksky District is a municipal area in southeastern Bashkortostan that sits at the foothills of the Ural Mountains. Several rivers flow through the territory, and forests mixed with small towns and villages cover the landscape.

The district took on its current administrative form in 1930 as part of the Bashkir Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic. This administrative structure shaped how the area developed and was organized over the following decades.

The population of 56,390 residents maintains connections through ninety-one rural localities organized into twenty-two administrative selsoviets across the territory.

The district consists of multiple rural communities spread across the land with several administrative centers. Visitors should expect rural infrastructure and longer distances between settlements when traveling through the area.

Forests cover 126,400 hectares of the district's territory, representing 24.4 percent of its total area with significant timber reserves.
