Route description

Reserve Forest at Losinaya Biostantsiya introduces the meeting of woodland and the Upper Yauza Wetlands. Wooden boardwalk makes it possible to examine birch, conifers and wet ground without entering the vegetation. Beside the eastern loop, the boundary of the named wetland area reaches the walking passage. Move slowly, pause at interpretation panels and listen for birds; beaver, deer or elk encounters are never assured. Woodland passages and the small loop occupy different parts of the trail, so use the centre’s map to choose their order and return to the correct entrance. The current park page allows individual exploration without a guide.

Route suitability

Кому будет комфортно
Keep children close on the boardwalk and beside water. This is a walking outing; uninterrupted stroller access across every branch is unconfirmed. Pets are forbidden in the ecological complex. With unreliable internet, save the approach map and arrange another payment method beforehand.

Nearby

The ornithological pontoon trail visits another part of the wetland complex and has its own visiting arrangements. The animal enclosure is also beyond this woodland walk and requires separate admission.

Getting there

By car
The ecological complex visitor address is Kropotkinsky Proezd, Mytishchi. Confirm entry arrangements with the biostation; a vehicle approach to the centre does not permit driving along the woodland trail.
