Expansion of recreation
activity connects with the problem of continuous
correlation search between mastering of natural
resources and preservation of their quality.
For being district
distribution, Kyiv enters to
Dniprovsko-Dnestrovskii recreation region.
Within the town there are 17 sanatoriums and
holiday hospitals, balneological hospitals, 5
houses and recreation holiday hotels, numerous
recreation bases and camps for children rest.
The most health-resort localities are
Koncha-Zaspa and Puscha-Vodycya.On the town
territory there are the considerable number of
natural and artificial forest-parks and parks.
They are Golosyiivskii, Svyatoshinskii parks,
the forest-park on the Exhibitions and Fair
Center territory, Central Glory park (unites 5
parks, disposed along the Dnipro river), Victory
park, Pushkin park Shevchenko park, Hydro-park
and others. A total area of green zone is 43,6
thousand hectares.
The State does not have time to
create the new recreation zones, and the needs
permanently increase, occasioning pressures on
recreation resources.
Today a situation in the town
forests and its suburbs testifies that a main
threat to their preservation is made by
irregular recreation pressure (specially into
warm year period ), including without permission
arrival of private motor transport to woodsy
and, frequently, protected allotments.
The green zones are the centres
of vital activity of great number of
animals’ kinds and vegetable groupments.
That's why recreation pressure negatively
influences on biological diversity in towns. For
example, in tie with Golosiyivskii forest use
for recreation purposes during late years a few
species of predatory birds vanished, and the
number of others considerably decreased.
The dumps of consumer and
building refuse in recreation zones without
permission has an impending scales.
