Extreme southwest of the region is situated on the hilly Foreurals, and the eastern part of the region borders with West-Siberian Plain. The region is mainly covered with taiga. In the mountain part of the area prevail coniferous trees and the plain is mostly covered with pine forests with birch and aspen forests and forest-steppes in the south. The soils of the region are typical for forest and forest-steppe zones. The southern part of the region is well-developed, while the northern part is poorly populated and barely changed. The biggest rivers of the region are Tura, Tchusovaya, Sosva, Iset. 173 fresh water springs were found which can provide 1 408 thousand m3 of potable water per day that significantly increases water resources. Forests and numerous water sources create favorable conditions for development of tourism. Furthermore, national parks Pripyshminskiye Bory, reserves Visimsky and Denezhkin Kamen’ are situated on the territory of the region. More than 1900 different kinds of plants grow within the bounds of the region and nearly 212 species of various animals and birds could be found here.
