Uniqueness: The Nature Reserve includes the territory of a large raised Moh Bog with mineral “islands”, hollows and lakes, surrounded along the perimeter by coniferous and deciduous forests. The most picturesque part of the bog are considered the so-called bog lakes - small bodies of water located in its eastern part. Due to their secluded position and small islands overgrown with swamp pines they are exceptionally beautiful. The territory of the bog is the habitat of a rare protected species of wild plants included in the Red Data Book of the Republic of Belarus - cloudberry.
A part of the Nature Reserve has the status of a regionally Important Bird Area.

Ecotourism services: There are several recreation sites. Berry picking and hunting are allowed during strictly prescribed periods. Mushroom picking is also allowed.

Ecological routes: The Cloudberry Country walking route (4 km, 4-5 h, May-October).
