Komarovsky Bereg is a protected natural monument situated on the northern coast of the Gulf of Finland. The 2.5-kilometer wooden boardwalk trail traverses diverse ecosystems, including spruce forests, alder groves, and coastal dunes. The area is home to century-old pine trees and provides a habitat for various protected plant and bird species. Visitors can observe remains of historical landscape parks dating back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, including artificial ponds and drainage systems. The trail culminates at the sandy shoreline of the gulf. It is managed by the Saint Petersburg government as a specially protected natural area to preserve its unique biodiversity. The terrain is relatively flat, making it accessible for casual walking.
