Route description

Deer Trail links the eastern side of the ecological complex with the main entrance to Losinaya Biostantsiya. Its appeal lies in close woodland observation rather than a guaranteed deer encounter. Wooden boardwalk passes spruce and birch, crosses wet ground and reaches two observation platforms. These overlook feeding clearings while keeping visitors at a quiet distance. In the selected direction the eastern platform comes first, followed by the western one and the turn toward the main entrance. Admission arrangements are set by the centre: visitors entering from the west walk this same passage in the opposite direction. A separately ticketed animal-enclosure visit can follow if available.
