Pines and firs are the most noticeable and numerous representatives of coniferous trees that can be found in the natural areas of Moscow. Walks in the forest where they grow bring special pleasure: the air is saturated with useful phytoncides and a unique aroma of freshness, and the greenery pleases the eye at any time of the year. Biologists of the capital Department of Nature Management and Environmental Protection They told us what evergreen plants are found in the city and where to look for them in natural areas.
In the Bitsevsky forest there are centuries-old spruce forests. They are located in the 26th and 27th quarters, as well as in the Znamenskoye-Sadki estate. The preserved pure spruce forests are a great rarity for the city. They are notable for the fact that they contain young trees, the forest is being renewed. In this same natural area there are pines of a special gnarled shape, preserved from the time when young seedlings matured in the then open spaces.
There are ecological routes through the Bitsevsky forest. The three-kilometer-long circular trail starts on Yasenevskaya Alley from the Novoyasenevsky Prospect side, runs through a coniferous forest, and comes out to a spring and an ancient pond dug in the 13th century.
Native spruce forests and old pine forests have also been preserved in the Losiny Ostrov National Park. In the Alekseyevskaya Grove, there are pine forests aged 150–200 years. A rare plant, the club-shaped club moss, can also be found here. This evergreen herbaceous spore perennial is listed in the Red Book of Moscow.

In addition, evergreen trees are in the east of the capital in the natural and historical park “Kosinsky”. Three lakes at once – Svyatoe, Beloe, Chernoe, as well as the valley of the Rudnevka River form a special landscape. Along the banks of the river there are swampy meadows, and the southern shore of the Black Lake is covered with a small massif of pine and birch. In this area you can find cranberry, marsh wild rosemary, and club moss.
