The largest ponds are artificial ones which have resulted from the infilling of stone quarries in Paritsa and Bornitskaya.
The Rural Settlement includes the headwaters of Sivoritsky Creek, which joins the Suyda River at the village of Paritsa.
These caves, which are sealed off from the atmosphere, were used beginning in Soviet times for the storage of natural gas reserves.
The area of the Bolshekolpanskoe Rural Settlement was part of the heartland of Ingria, home of the pre-Russian Izhorians and Votes, peoples who are now on the brink of extinction.
The Settlement also contains various small businesses, engaged in pursuits such as trade, personal services, repair and maintenance of motor vehicles, and so forth.
