The Polovtsian Steppe Regional Landscape Park was created in 2000 to preserve areas of pristine steppes of the Northern Azov region.

The landscape park is located on the border of the Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia regions between the village of Starchenkove and the village of Zakharivka. Territorially, the park covers the backwaters of the middle course of the Berda River and its tributaries (Karatyuk and Temryuk rivers), pristine steppe areas.

This territory is a place of growth of medicinal, rare and listed in the Red Book of Ukraine species of plants, as well as a place of residence of various representatives of the fauna.

Currently, the territory of the park is a typical area of various grass-sedge-sedge steppe with artificial plantations of forest crops.

Reservoirs located on the territory of the park attract fishermen. The ichthyofauna is represented by such species as pike, crucian carp, crucian carp, bream, perch and others.
