Yamka Park

The "Yamka" Park in Petrozavodsk occupies 6.6 hectares on the site of a former ravine, where the city winter market was located in the late 19th century, and later sand extraction was carried out. The territory is an example of landscape reclamation of a former industrial zone and was improved in 2017 as part of the "Formation of a Comfortable Urban Environment" program. The park, located between Karl Marx Avenue, the Lososinka River, and the Yunost and Spartak stadiums, is used by city residents for walks and sports events.
