The Khopyor Nature Reserve (Russian: Хопёрский заповедник) (also Khopersky) is a Russian zapovednik (strict nature reserve) that protects a 50-km-long stretch of the Khopyor River in the Voronezh Oblast. About 80% of the area is covered by forests, floodplain, and upland oak woods, with small areas of steppe and meadowlands. There are about 400 lakes and oxbows. The reserve is situated in the Novokhopyorsky District of Voronezh Oblast.[1][2]
