A specially protected natural area of local importance is the recreational zone known as “Pervomayskaya Roscha.”
The Pervomayskaya Roscha in the village of Pervomayskoye (Vyselkovskoye settlement) was established to protect man-made tree plantations planted in the mid-1960s as part of efforts to reforest the steppe zone of Krasnodar region.
It is a valuable natural area because it combines various geographical features.
The specially protected natural area is surrounded on the western and northern sides by an unnamed gully that flows from the left bank into the Beysug river, where reeds grow. On the southern and eastern sides, it is bordered by arable land.
The presence of endangered species of animals and plants makes the territory valuable.
