The Perm Territory has an extensive water system. The rest of the reservoirs are either located in its basin, or are connected by a system of tributaries. It stands out among others for its length; the next river on the list, Chusovaya, is three times shorter. There are many fishing spots in the region. This is one of the directions of domestic tourism. The second, not inferior in popularity, is alloys.
Mountain and rapids rivers with a fast flow, like Vizhay, attract extreme lovers. The shores are moderately populated, as mainly villages and villages are located on them. The absence of people and their vigorous activity in the district has a beneficial effect on the environment. Mulyanka and other waterways that flow in Perm were a little less fortunate in this regard.
