Uspenskie Salt Lakes

The remains of the ancient Sarmatian Sea, dating back around six million years, hold the status of a specially protected natural area. The mud found there possesses healing properties similar to the mud of the Dead Sea. Throughout history, people have used this mud from the lakes to treat wounds and ulcers.

The Stepnoy State Natural Biological (botanical) reserve

On the 1,748-hectare area, there are various natural habitats consisting of steppe communities: grasslands, dry meadows, thyme-covered meadows, and grassy areas. Oak forests, mainly in the form of small clusters along the ravines, are found in the lower slopes. The flora of this specially protected natural area comprises 327 plant species. Additionally, around 500 invertebrate animal species have been documented here, including numerous flora and fauna representatives listed in the Red Books of the Russian Federation and Krasnodar region.
