The Russian Arctic National Park (Russian: Национальный парк "Русская Арктика") is a vast national park in Arkhangelsk Oblast in the far north of Russia. It was established in 2009 and expanded in 2016, now protecting over 74,000 km (29,000 sq mi), though most of it is water. The park is a haven for polar bears, bowhead whales, walruses, and seals.
