Kemerovo region is located in the southern part Western Siberia, formed on January 26, 1943.

The area is 95.7 thousand square meters. kilometers, population 2885 thousand people.

But a person does not always value, mercilessly uses and cares little about the preservation of these riches.


Therefore, there was a need to organize reserves and reserves in the Kuzbass.

On the territory of the Kemerovo region there are: a reserve federal significance"Kuznetsk Alatau" national park"Shorsky", historical, cultural and natural museum-reserve "Tomsk Pisanitsa" and 14 nature reserves.

"Tomskaya Pisanitsa"

Kuznetsk Alatau

Shorsky Park


Reserve "Kuznetsk Alatau"

Altai mountains


Kuznetsk Alatau is mountain system, east spur Altai mountains. It consists of mountain ranges with elongated peaks - tyskyls. These tyskyls rise above the border of the forests.

"Alatau" in translation from the Turkic language means "Motley Mountains". This name accurately reflects the first impression of the bright colors of the Kuznetsk Alatau.

The Kuznetsk Alatau State Nature Reserve was established on December 27, 1989 in the central part of the mountain range of the same name, on the territory of the Tisulsky, Mezhdurechensky and Novokuznetsky districts of the Kemerovo region.

The terrain is mountainous. Most of the area is occupied by forests. Meet alpine meadows and reservoirs.


In the reserve are the origins largest tributaries Ob - rivers Tom and Chulym.

Most of the Kuznetsk Alatau nature reserve is covered with mountainous taiga forests fir, spruce and cedar pine Siberian.

In "Kuznetsky Alatau" you can see about three hundred species of birds, two hundred and nine of them nest in the reserve.

There are 41 species of little-studied and rare birds in the reserve, the number of which is gradually decreasing.

Typical settled inhabitants of the taiga are capercaillie, nutcracker, jay, kuksha, nuthatch and others.

The fish fauna of the reserve consists of 13 species. IN mountain rivers Siberian grayling and taimen live.

In slowly flowing waters - pike, perch and burbot.

In the spurs of the Kuznetsk Alatau, there are 5 species of amphibians, however, only two are noted in the reserve - common toad and moor frog. Of the 6 species of reptiles in the Kemerovo region, only two have been found so far within the reserve - the viviparous lizard and the common viper.


Shorsky National Park

The Shorsky National Park was organized in 1990 on the basis of the Decree of the Soviet Government of December 27, 1989.

The park is located in the south of the Kemerovo region on the territory of the Tashtagol district.

The length of the territory of the national park from north to south is 110 km, from east to west 90 km.




"Royal Gates" - picturesque rocks on the right bank of the river Mrassu. The rocks have a height of 100 meters and drop steeply into the water.

They are composed of marbled limestones. The color of the rocks changes depending on the weather and lighting. In sunny, clear weather, the rocks are light - white with a pinkish tint. In cloudy weather, they become gloomy gray with a purple tint.


Mountain Shoria is a beautiful corner of Kuzbass nature! Strong, original and talented Shor people have been living here for a long time. But now he and nature need help and protection.

For this, the Shorsky State Natural National Park was created.

I picked a flower and it withered.

I caught a beetle and it died in my palm.

And then I realized that you can touch beauty only with your heart.

Pavol Hviezdoslav, Slovak poet and humanist

The reserve was founded in 1989.

Unique in the Kuznetsk Alatau for the inland regions of the northern hemisphere is the existence of small forms of glaciers at unusually low absolute altitudes– 1200-1500 m a.s.l. mind. Glaciers have not been found in any of the inland regions of the northern hemisphere at similar latitudes. On the territory of the reserve there are 32 glaciers 6.79 sq. km. Of these, the largest in Kuzbass is the Glacier of the expedition members with an area of ​​0.3 sq. km. Located in the vicinity of the Sredny Kanym mountain.

Lake Srednetersinskoe

Most deep lake Kuzbass. Its depth is 60 meters.

Lake Fish

The largest mountain-glacial lake in the region, its length is 1000 m, width is 500 meters. From this lake originates the river Upper Ters, one of the most beautiful rivers reserve. In the lake by

the lake form of grayling lives permanently.

Mount Bolshoi Kanym, height 1872 m a.s.l. mind.

Mount Suitcase

The Kiya River originates in the area of ​​the Chemodan char on the eastern slope of the Kuznetsk Alatau, the second source is on the Medvezhiy char mountain.

Mount Chemodan, height - 1357 m a.s.l. mind. Remains of the most ancient relief of the Kuznetsk Alatau ridge. At the foot of the mountain there is a raised moss bog, on the slopes there are thickets of radiola rosea and leuzea soflora-like, here there are summer stations of reindeer, roe deer, deer. are nesting rare species birds - peregrine falcon, saker falcon.

Krestovsky swamps

Located at the foot of Mount Motley (1347 m above sea level)

Raised bogs with typical vegetation. Ungulates concentrate here during spring-autumn migrations.

The park was organized in 1990. The Shorsky National Park is located in the south of the Kemerovo region on the territory of the Tashtagol administrative district. The length of the territory of the national park from north to south is 110 km, from east to west 90 km. On the territory of Mountain Shoria there are 25 natural monuments (geological, water, botanical, complex), of which 6 are the most accessible and visited:

Waterfall "Saga"

- a unique hydrological monument of nature on the territory of the Shor National Park. Saga Waterfall - located in a small canyon 200 meters from the left bank of the Mras-Su River. From a height of 15 meters, the Sholbychak stream falls, breaking on stones, and a lake with a small grotto calms down. There are many rare and medicinal herbs in the canyon.

"Kizas caves"

There is just a temple

There is a temple of science

And there is also a temple of nature,

With scaffolding pulling hands

Against the sun and winds.

He is holy at any time of the year,

Open for us in the heat and chill.

Come in here, be a sensitive heart,

Don't desecrate his shrines.

A. Smirnov

We are immensely rich

In our thickets and groves

So many feathers

You're just wondering.

And, of course, anxious

That sometimes we are godless

We don't keep what we have

We do not spare, we do not regret

No answer for anything.

Like the smallest

Us on this planet

It remains to live and rule.

Not the owners like

So we destroy our good.

We are proud of nature

And we love our country.

At present, the territory of the Kemerovo region has a unique situation in the organization of specially protected natural areas - it has:

    State Nature Reserve "Kuznetsk Alatau"(formed in 1989);

    Shor National Park(formed in 1989);

    Natural reserves - 14 zoological reserves;

    Natural monument "Lime Island" - a unique plant massif, a remnant of the tertiary broad-leaved vegetation, a refugium of tertiary non-moral relics;

    Botanical Garden "Kuzbass Botanical Garden"(formed in 1989);

    Museum-reserve "Tomsk Pisanitsa".

Reserve "Kuznetsk Alatau"

State nature reserve "Kuznetsk Alatau"(formed in 1989). The territory of the reserve is unique and is a transitional zone between Western and Eastern Siberia, as a result of which its fauna and flora are of a mixed nature, there is a pronounced zoning from steppes and forest-steppes to black taiga, subalpine and alpine ecosystems to high mountain tundra. The area of ​​black forests in the reserve is 72.8% of its forested territory, cedar and spruce forests account for 2.4% each.

The significance of the reserve as a specially protected natural area lies in the preservation of a unique landscape system in its natural state; reference, undisturbed areas of the black taiga as a refugium for the growth of tertiary nemoral relics; in maintaining the ecological natural balance; in the preservation of the air balance over the given territory through forest ecosystems.

Shor National Park

Shor National Park(formed in 1989) - similar to the reserve, the territory of the national park is a unique refugium for the growth of tertiary nemoral relics. At the same time, the territory of the national park also has a number of pristine plant communities on the southern outskirts (lime forests, alder forests along the banks of mountain rivers, tundra ecosystems with representatives of periglacial relics, pure cedar forests). Representatives of rare and endangered animals found their habitats in this territory - black stork, gray heron, needle-tailed swift, golden eagle, peregrine falcon, osprey, northern taiga-mountain deer, deer, wolverine, etc.

The purpose of organizing the Shorsky National Park was the comprehensive conservation of natural resources in the south of the Kemerovo region; in connection with the predominance of forest cover - the performance of the function of stabilizing the global circulation of substances in nature, including the preservation of the atmospheric balance of the planet (especially in this region, one of the most industrial centers of Siberia); promotion of in-situ conservation of biological diversity; ensuring respect, conservation and maintenance of the knowledge, innovations and practices of indigenous and local communities reflecting traditional lifestyles that are relevant to the conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity; development of regulated tourism in the area.

educational hour The Kemerovo Region is located in the southern part of Western Siberia. On the territory of the region there is a state natural reserve "Kuznetsk Alatau".

It was established in 1989 and is located in the highest part of the Kuznetsky Alatau ridge on the territory of Tisulsky, Novokuznetsky and Mezhdurechensky districts.
Kuznetsk Alatau (from the Turkic language "motley mountains") - a highland in the south of Western Siberia, about 300 km long, highest altitude 2211 m.
The purpose of the creation of the reserve is the protection of slightly disturbed forest ecosystems, as well as the protection of the reindeer population.

The place on the banks of the Kiya in the Chebulinsky district of the Kemerovo region is the only "cemetery of dinosaurs" in our country.
In the vicinity of the village of Shestako-vo on the right bank of the river, a huge number of bones of animals that inhabited the earth more than 130 mln years ago are hidden underground.

Here was found the skeleton of a dinosaur, which was named "Psittacosaurus sibirikus". This is a small two-meter dinosaur with unusual shape head and beak like a parrot.
Fifty million years ago, the climate of Siberia was much warmer, and the vegetation was very different from the modern one.
Instead of the taiga, heat-loving forests of beech, alder, linden, maple, oak and walnut.
Deciduous forests were noisy even where the tundra now stretches.
The remnant of this in the south of the Kuznetsk Basin is "Lime Island" - a patch of lindens preserved among the world of coniferous vegetation alien to them.

The first people appeared on the territory of the Kemerovo region
400 thousand years ago. They could make from natural material
(stone, bone, wood) tools. The inhabitants of the Stone Age hunted, fished, gathered fruits and roots.

A real ancient stone treasure was found near the village of Kuzedeevo.
At that time, the nature of Kuzbass was completely different. Here lived: Siberian woolly rhinos, cave bears, mammoths. The remains of mammoths are often found in the Belovsky, Guryevsky and Prokopevsky regions.
These animals were huge: the weight of a mammoth could reach six tons!

Five thousand years ago, people who lived in our region began to make the first metal products (copper, bronze), mastered the technique of smelting.
Traces of ancient metallurgy were found by archaeologists on Lake Tanai (Promyshlennovsky district).

The most interesting monuments of our region of the Bronze Age are petroglyphs - rock paintings of ancient people.
Ancient people loved to depict animals, hunting scenes, and often painted the sun.
All pisanitsy are located along the banks of the Tom.
The largest is the world famous 60 km from Kemerovo.
More than two and a half thousand years ago, the age of iron begins.
Weapons and tools began to be made mainly from it, since iron ore are more common than copper.
The skill and craftsmanship of people has grown significantly, because getting iron, making iron products is quite difficult.

In the V-VI centuries AD. Turks began to penetrate into the Kuznetsk land - nomads from the neighboring Altai.
They had a strong influence on the tribes living here. Teleuts, Tomsk Tatars are the direct descendants of the Turks. The Shors are an indigenous people who adopted the language and customs of the nomads.
The Teleuts are one of the most prosperous Turkic families in the past. Their camps stretched from Altai far to the north. They were the first of the peoples of our region who voluntarily accepted Russian citizenship. Now they live in Novokuznetsk and Belovsky districts.

The Shors lived in the mountain taiga, along the rivers Kondoma, Mras-Su and their tributaries. They were skilled hunters and fishermen.
The Russians called them "blacksmiths" - for their ability to melt iron and make weapons from it.
From them came the name of our region - the Kuznetsk land.
The annexation of Siberia to Russia actively began in the 16th century.
Russian servicemen began to move deep into Siberia and set up fortified fortresses to protect new lands.
The first prison that arose in our region was called "Kuznetsky".

The place was chosen very well: the merger of two big rivers, around vast fields for arable land and for livestock, near the forest for hunting, a lot of fish in the rivers.
Ostrog was set up on the land of the Shors to protect them from raids by hostile tribes and to collect tribute from the new subjects of the Russian Tsar.
Kuznetsk prison for a long time remained an important fortress of Russia.
Tsar Peter I ordered to search for and extract ores, therefore, miners began to visit Siberia more and more often.
During his trip to the Kuznetsk Territory, the explorer Mikhailo Volkov saw a "burnt mountain". It was a coal fire.

This discovery came in handy, in Russia the metallurgical industry was actively developing, which required more and more fuel.
Over time, it became clear that the Kuznetsk Territory had huge reserves of coal and iron, gold and silver, that metallurgical plants and mines needed to be built here.
In the future, this began to be actively carried out. In 1816, a metallurgical plant began to operate in the city of Guryevsk, and in 1883, the first mine was put into operation in Kolchugino (now the city of Leninsk-Kuznetsky).

Our region in its history was included in different regions and territories: in the Tobolsk province, the Tomsk province, the Siberian Territory, Novosibirsk region.
And finally, in 1943, the Kemerovo region was formed.
And the Kuznetsk Territory was first called Kuzbass by the scientist Pyotr Chikhachev.
In 1842, he explored it, discovered that this area has huge reserves of coal and named it "Kuznetsk Coal Basin" or "Kuzbass" for short.
From July to August 2008, Kuzbass residents took part in a regional competition in which they chose unique symbols of their native land. 10 characters have been selected.

Historical, cultural and natural museum-reserve "Tomskayapisanitsa"

The rock with drawings of ancient people was discovered in the 16th century and for hundreds of years attracted the attention of researchers.
museum complex open air consists of open screening geological, mineralogical materials.

An exhibition on the paleontology of the earth was launched.

Museum-Reserve "Krasnaya Gorka"

The unique museum-reserve is located on the right bank of the Tom in the territory of the former Kemerovo mine.
This is the only nature reserve in Kuzbass located within the city limits.

At present, industrial, civil and administrative buildings have been preserved here, which tell about the history of the city of Kemerovo.

"Kuznetsk fortress" - a monument of history and architecture of federal significance

The construction of the Kuznetsk fortress began in 1800 and was completed in 1820. The fortress was part of the fortification system and was intended to protect the Russian border from neighboring China. The total area of ​​the fortress is 2.5 hectares.

Sculptural composition "Saint Barbara"

The Holy Great Martyr Barbara has been honored in Russia since ancient times.
People call her an ambulance and intercessor. She is considered the patroness of miners.
Mothers and wives pray for Barbara's intercession, in Hard time and the miners themselves turn to her for help.
In 2007, a sculpture of St. Barbara was installed on the historical territory of the Krasnaya Gorka Museum-Reserve.
Sculptors M.O.Lushnikov, .P.Mokrousov and architects G.V.Gaifulin, E.M.Ivanova embodied the image of the Saint in bronze, observing all the canons.

Monument "Mine pile driver" (Anzhero-Sudzhensk)

The main element of the monument is a metal pyramid imitating a mine headframe.
The monument was designed CEO LLC "ZHEU No. 1 Severny" S.A. Shabarov, made by the employees of the association at own funds and installed by the Miner's Day in 2007 on the territory of the Northern microdistrict of Anzhero-Sudzhensk.

Kuzbass State Technical University

It was organized on the basis of the Kemerovo Mining and Construction College in 1950.
In 1965 it was transformed into the Kuzbass Polytechnic Institute.
In 1993, the Kuzbass Polytechnic Institute became known as the Kuzbass State Technical University.

Over the years of its existence, the university has grown into a major educational and scientific center, has become one of the leading universities in Western Siberia, and is recognized in Russia and abroad.
The university provides training in 37 specialties.

Monument "Memory to the miners of Kuzbass" (Kemerovo)

The monument, a gift from the sculptor Ernst Neizvestny, was erected in 2003.
The total height of the composition is 12 m, weight is 5 tons.
The monument is a bronze torso of a miner, mounted on a three-meter pedestal of black granite.
In his hands, the miner holds a flaming coal, symbolizing a warm heart.
At the base of the monument there are pieces of coal, embodied in stylized human faces.

Monument to Mikhailo Volkov

The monument to the discoverer of Kuznetsk coal, Mikhailo Volkov, was erected on the square named after him in Central region Kemerovo.
At the opening of the monument on August 23, 1968, they said that the city had two godfathers - coal and mine explorer Mikhailo Volkov.
The monument was donated by the sculptor G. Baranov.

In 1721, on the banks of the Tom River, Mikhailo Volkov discovered a layer of coal in the "burnt mountain" (now the Rudnichny district of Kemerovo).

Chapel icons Mother of God"Joy to All Who Sorrow"

September 15, 1993 His Holiness Patriarch Alexy II of Moscow and All Rus' solemnly consecrated the foundation stone of the chapel
icon of the Mother of God "Joy of All Who Sorrow", which was created on the initiative of the Administration of the Kemerovo region as a monument in honor of the tragically lost Kuzbass miners.

"Kolchugin mine" (Leninsk-Kuznetsky)

The first mention of locality Kolchugino in the lists of villages dates back to 1763.
The village was located at the very bed of thick coal seams. And already in 1883, the first mine "Success" was opened here, which laid the foundation for the development of the Kolchuginsky mine.
Since the beginning of the 90s of the 19th century, the Kolchugin mine has become the coal-mining capital of the region.

Reserves are plots of land or water that are protected by the state and removed from economic use.
Reserves are formed in order to preserve the flora and fauna characteristic of the area. The reserves are strictly guarded, unauthorized visits are prohibited.
First in Russia state reserve appeared in 1916. Now there are 204 specially protected territories in our country.
Nature in the Kemerovo region is very rich - this is the taiga, where rare relict forests are found; alpine meadows, steppe and forest-steppe; cedar and spruce forests; lots of lakes and rivers.

But every year the state of nature is getting worse. More and more people intervene in her life. The diversity of animal species is declining, forests are disappearing, rivers are drying up, lakes are swamping. The earth could become uninhabitable for humans if no action is taken.
There is only one way out - to save nature. This can be done with the help of nature reserves, wildlife sanctuaries, national parks, natural memorial places.

The Kemerovo region is located in the southeast of Western Siberia and is located almost at an equal distance from the western and eastern borders of Russia.
The natural resources of the region, its flora and fauna are huge and varied. But a person does not always value, mercilessly uses and cares little about the preservation of these riches.

Therefore, there was a need to organize reserves and reserves in the Kuzbass.
On the territory of the Kemerovo region there are: the reserve of federal significance "Kuznetsk Alatau", the national park "Shorsky", the historical, cultural and natural museum-reserve "Tomskayapisanitsa" and 14 nature reserves.

Reserve
"Kuznetsk Alatau"

Kuznetsk Alatau is a mountain system, the eastern spur of the Altai Mountains. It consists of mountain ranges with elongated peaks - tyskyls. These tyskyls rise above the border of the forests.

"Alatau" in translation from the Turkic language means "Motley Mountains". This name accurately reflects the first impression of the bright colors of the Kuznetsk Alatau.

The Kuznetsk Alatau State Nature Reserve was established on December 27, 1989 in the central part of the mountain range of the same name, on the territory of the Tisulsky, Mezhdurechensky and Novokuznetsky districts of the Kemerovo region.
The terrain is mountainous. Most of the area is occupied by forests. There are alpine meadows and reservoirs.

In the reserve there are sources of the largest tributaries of the Ob - the rivers Tom and Chulym.

Most of the Kuznetsk Alatau reserve is covered with mountain taiga forests of fir, spruce and Siberian cedar pine.

IN deciduous forests meadowsweet, yellow acacia, bird cherry, cotoneaster chokeberry and wild rose are found.
IN fir forests many glades. They grow: high wrestler, Siberian skerda, various-leaved calamus, nettle, high honeysuckle.
Downy birch, willow, currant, shrubby alder and mountain ash grow along the valleys of taiga rivers.

In "Kuznetsky Alatau" you can see about three hundred species of birds, two hundred and nine of them nest in the reserve.
There are 41 species of little-studied and rare birds in the reserve, the number of which is gradually decreasing.
Typical settled inhabitants of the taiga are capercaillie, nutcracker, jay, kuksha, nuthatch and others.

The fish fauna of the reserve consists of 13 species. Siberian grayling and taimen live in mountain rivers.
In slowly flowing waters - pike, perch and burbot.
In the spurs of the Kuznetsk Alatau, there are 5 species of amphibians, but only two species have been recorded on the territory of the reserve - the common toad and the moored frog. Of the 6 species of reptiles in the Kemerovo region, only two have been found so far within the reserve - the viviparous lizard and the common viper.


moor frog

The mammalian fauna of the Kuznetsk Alatau includes 65 species. Most are inhabitants of the taiga. This is a badger, a tiny shrew, an otter, an Altai mole, a chipmunk, a red-gray vole and others.
In the forests of the reserve are also widely represented Brown bear, fox, wolf and elk.
A feature of the Kuznetsk Alatau can be considered an exceptional snow cover in terms of height for the region, reaching an average of 3-5 meters across the territory of the reserve, and up to 10-15 meters in intermountain depressions.
The protection regime of the reserve allows to effectively protect non-nomadic animals, such as sable, and save migratory animals, such as reindeer.
Illegal hunting most seriously affects nomadic species of animals - roe deer, elk, deer.

Kuznetsk Alatau is the most beautiful and unique place!
White snowfields lie next to flowering meadows, the blue sky is reflected in the mirrors of the lakes, and snow-white clouds creep so low that they often cling to the sharp gray peaks of the rocks.
Animal and vegetable world amazingly rich and varied. And how you want to keep it intact and clean, because human activity sometimes causes irreparable damage to nature.
For this purpose, the reserve "Kuznetsk Alatau" was created in the Kemerovo region. Here, endangered plants and animals have finally found protection for themselves!

national park
"Shorsky"

The Shorsky National Park was organized in 1990 on the basis of the Decree of the Soviet Government of December 27, 1989.
The park is located in the south of the Kemerovo region on the territory of the Tashtagol district.
The length of the territory of the national park from north to south is 110 km, from east to west 90 km.

The park was created with the aim of preserving the unique areas of growth of cedar, black taiga in Gornaya Shoriya, as well as preserving cultural heritage indigenous Shor ethnicity.

The territory of the Shorsky National Park is the place of residence of a small indigenous Turkic-speaking group - the mountain Shor people.
The Shors live mainly in the south of the Kemerovo region, along the banks of the rivers Tom, Mrassu, Kondoma.
Their number is about 15 thousand people.
Until the 18th century, the Shors were known for their ability to mine and smelt iron ore,
blacksmithing.
The traditional occupations of the Shors were also hunting, farming, harvesting wild-growing edible plants, fishing and beekeeping.
The Shors also knew how to make pottery, process wood and leather, and weave material.
Ancient legends and tales of Mountain Shoria are part of the national culture of the Shors. For centuries they kept their epic, retold it to each other.
Legends teach that you can’t do evil, you can’t take revenge, envy; They teach that good always triumphs over evil. We must live in harmony with nature, take care of our loved ones and the fragile world that surrounds us.
Since ancient times, the Shors have felt unity with wildlife, endowed everything that surrounded them with a soul: mountains, rivers, wind, plants, animals.
Here is one of the legends that tells about the origin of the main rivers of Gornaya Shoria and Kuzbass.
There was a hunter named Tom in Gornaya Shoria. And there was a beautiful girl, the daughter of a rich bai. Her name was Marsu. The guy fell in love with Mrassu and wanted to marry her. But the rich father opposed: he did not want such a groom for his daughter. Bai sent a hunter to where streams and rivers originate, and made it a river.
Mrassu grieved and wept so much that she herself turned into a river and flowed to her beloved.
On the way, a rough rock blocked her path. Mrassu's chest was crushed by a rock, and she fell into the river. Until now, huge stones lie in the river, forming rapids. Mrassu rushes swiftly and furiously through the taiga and the rapids to where it forever merges with Tomyu.

woodlands mid-mountainous part of Shoria are almost unaffected economic activity and preserved in its original form.

Currently, more than 60 rare and endangered species of plants listed in the Red Books of Russia and the Kemerovo region have been identified in the territory of the national park. The leading plants of the national park are cedar, Siberian fir, aspen.

6 species of birds are also listed in the Red Book: black stork, gray heron, needle-tailed swift, golden eagle, peregrine falcon.
About 60 species of mammals live in the park. Among them are muskrat, weasel, hare, squirrel, musk deer.

There are many natural monuments on the territory of the national park. One of them is the Saga waterfall.
Waterfall "Saga" occupies 30,000 square meters. m, located on the Sholbychak stream (left bank of the Mrassu), 300 m from the Mrassu River.
An eighteen-meter waterfall falls in several cascades into a small icy lake.
At the waterfall there is a small grotto, turning into a cave with a very narrow entrance.

"Royal Gates" - picturesque rocks on the right bank of the river Mrassu. The rocks have a height of 100 meters and drop steeply into the water.
They are composed of marbled limestones. The color of the rocks changes depending on the weather and lighting. In sunny, clear weather, the rocks are light - white with a pinkish tint. In cloudy weather, they become gloomy gray with a purple tint.

Mountain Shoria is a beautiful corner of Kuzbass nature! Strong, original and talented Shor people have been living here for a long time. But now he and nature need help and protection.
For this, the Shorsky State Natural National Park was created.

10.01.2017 reserved places Kuzbass 12+

On January 10, 6th grade students of boarding school No. 15 took part in a virtual eco-tour "Reserved Places of Russia", timed to coincide with the All-Russian Day of Reserves, as part of the "Love, Appreciate and Protect" cycle. Every year on January 11, Russian ecologists and all those who care about nature conservation celebrate the Day of Reserves and National Parks. The date of the holiday was based on the day on which the first Russian nature reserve: Barguzinsky.

At the beginning of the event, librarian Achimova O.V. (Oksana Viktorovna) introduced the children to books about the reserved places of Kuzbass, told that Natural resources, flora and fauna of the Kemerovo region are huge and diverse. But a person does not always value, mercilessly uses and cares little about the preservation of these riches. Therefore, there was a need to organize reserves and reserves in the Kuzbass. On the territory of the Kemerovo region there are: the reserve of federal significance "Kuznetsk Alatau", the national park "Shorsky", the historical, cultural and natural museum-reserve "Tomsk Pisanitsa" and 14 nature reserves.

The prepared slide presentation helped the children to “climb” the Celestial teeth, descend into the Aazas cave, “visit” the Alatau mountains, “walk” along national park"Shorsky", see the "Marble Rocks" waterfall, the valley of the Mrassu river with caves, and the Kul-Taiga valley with a mountain lake. But the greatest interest was aroused by "Tomsk Pisanitsa" - the first monument of rock art in Siberia.

With interest and curiosity, the guys looked at books about reserves, vying to ask questions, marveled at the images of rock paintings of the Bronze Age (2nd millennium BC): elks, bears, signs of the sun, birds, boats, deer-sun, bird people ... But the main surprise was waiting for them ahead. Mammoth tusk and its tooth, bison skull and figurines of prehistoric people from the personal collection of history teacher V.L. Sotnikova, caused genuine delight among the participants of the eco-trip. Everyone wanted to hold and take a picture with a petrified history dating back more than one thousand years.

At the end of the event, we decided that we would take the next excursion to the seven wonders of Kuzbass.

15 people participated.
