Rostov Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in Rostov Oblast, Russia
The reserve spans 9,531 hectares across four separate sections in the Kuma-Manych Depression between the Russian Plain and Ciscaucasia region.
The federal government established this protected area on December 27, 1995, and UNESCO designated it as a biosphere reserve in 2007.
The reserve organizes the annual Sung Steppe ecotourism festival, where visitors gather to observe the spring tulip fields along Manych River.
Visitors must arrange guided tours in advance and travel in groups of 6 to 10 people through designated paths in the conservation zone.
The reserve houses 150 wild mustangs living in 15 family groups on Vodny Island, making it one of few places with free-roaming horse populations.
