In Russia, people generally treat nature as something to be respected and preserved, so in forests, lakes, and parks you should stay on marked paths, avoid littering, and be careful with fire, especially in dry summer areas. Many Russians also have a strong tradition of outdoor recreation such as mushroom and berry picking, fishing, and
dacha life, so you may see locals moving quietly through the woods and taking home what they gather rather than treating the countryside as a place for loud recreation.
