The Krasnoyarsk Stolby National Park, located in Krasnoyarsk, is one of the specially protected natural territories that play a key role in absorbing carbon dioxide. On its territory is the Bobrovy Log fan park - a world-class all-season sports and recreation park, which is part of the Norilsk Nickel Group of Companies. Since 2018, the fan park has been implementing a partnership program with the Krasnoyarsk Stolby National Park in various areas.
