Duderhof height is a unique nature monument, a group of hills of glacial origin, the highest place in the vicinity of St. Petersburg. The heights are formed by three mountains: Crow (147 m), Nut (176 m) and Kirchhoff (170 m). The first two vertices are on the same base. Near the Crows and Nut Mountains Dudergofskoe Lake is located. The soil and vegetation of the heights are diverse and unusual for the latitudes of the northwest. The Crow and Nut Mountains are located in the south-west of St. Petersburg - at the foot of the village is Mozhaisky, Kirchhoff mountain - in the Lomonosov district of the Leningrad region. The Duderhof hills are listed in the UNESCO World Heritage List. - Hills of the Crows and Nut Mountains are decorated in a semi-wild park.
