Верхне-Волжский, Nature reserve in Yaroslavl Oblast, Russia
The Upper Volga Nature Reserve spans 14,134 hectares across the watershed of Volga, Yukhot, and Uleyma rivers in central Yaroslavl Oblast.
The Russian government established this regional zoological reserve on June 28, 1963, to protect animal habitats and migration routes in the region.
Scientists conduct research programs throughout the reserve to monitor environmental changes and develop protection measures for local ecosystems.
Visitors can access designated trails within the reserve while following strict regulations that prevent plant collection and minimize environmental impact.
The reserve contains three large swamps - Chernoye at 774 hectares, Treskovatoye at 66 hectares, and Grudinskoye at 28 hectares.
