The park's name reflects the historical cultural ties between Soviet-era planning and regional forestry projects.
It is one of the few managed forest zones in the immediate vicinity of the Inhulets River basin.
The forest composition supports diverse local fauna, including native bird species common to the Mykolaiv steppe-forest zone.
Tashkentskyy Lis, or Tashkent Forest, is a significant green space located in the urban settlement of Voskresenske within the Mykolaiv Oblast. The area serves as a primary recreational woodland for local residents, characterized by a mix of coniferous and deciduous tree species. As of August 2026, the park remains open to the public despite ongoing regional environmental challenges in southern Ukraine. The terrain is relatively flat, consisting of natural walking trails that wind through dense canopy sections. It functions as a local ecological buffer and a site for outdoor exercise and leisure activities.
Along the main dirt path where the canopy creates a natural tunnel of light.
Bring insect repellent, as the forested area can be prone to mosquitoes and ticks during warmer months.
Wear sturdy, closed-toe walking shoes to navigate uneven terrain and natural forest debris.
Carry all waste out with you, as there are limited trash disposal facilities within the interior of the woodland.
Do not wander off marked trails, as the area is not fully surveyed for uneven ground or hidden hazards.
Practice 'Leave No Trace' principles; strictly avoid open fires due to the high risk of brush fires in the region.
