Loga Park (Russian: Парк Логá) is a European-style landscape park situated in Khutor Staraya Stanitsa of Kamensk-Shakhtinsky City in the Rostov region of Russia.[1] Its name came from the Logo beam in which floodplain it is situated.
The Loga Park was created by a local businessman in a droughty region in a former dump site and opened in 2012.
The park is an example of modern garden art and received a local unofficial name Little Switzerland for its picturesque view.[2] Originally the Loga Park occupied an area of 16 hectares, and was subsequently expanded to 22 hectares.
Admission is free.[3]
Every day the staff of 40 people including professional landscape designers work in the park.
In 2016, the park was visited by the governor of the Rostov region Vasily Golubev,[4] who promised to support the park and build a separate road to it from the highway M-4 Don. The entry is from the Don highway through the junction following signpost to the Old Stanitsa.
