The climate in Surgut is continental and falls under the conditions of the Far North. The average annual temperature does not exceed -2.2°C, and winter lasts almost 9 months here.

The city was founded during the reign of Ivan the Terrible in the place where the northern tribes of the Khanty and Mansi lived. The region was known throughout Russia for its abundance of mushrooms, northern berries, nuts, fish, and fur. By the mid-18th century, Surgut was already a densely populated trading center of the region, and in the 19th century, industry grew rapidly here.

In Soviet times, rich oil deposits were discovered in Surgut, and young specialists and those who simply wanted to earn good money started coming here from all over the Union. The city grew rapidly, and this process continues to this day.

The surroundings of Surgut are abundant in berries and mushrooms, and are home to fur-bearing animals. The river is teeming with valuable fish species.
