Shchuchye Lake (Komarovo)

Lake Shchuchye is located in the village of Komarovo in Zelenogorsk on the Karelian Isthmus, three kilometers north of the Komarovo platform. Since 2008, the water area of the lake has been under protection, and in 2011 the "Lake Shchuchye" reserve was established here, access to which by cars is significantly restricted. More than a third of the reserve's territory is covered by kame hills, swamps, and lakes left from the last glaciation, including the largest one, Druzhinnoye. Near the lake is the Komarovo Cemetery, where figures of literature, art, and science are buried, and during the Swedish era, game from the surroundings was delivered to the royal court.
