It was founded by Cossacks in 1895 and quickly became a timber center due to the large pine, fir and spruce trees in the area. The town is located on flat land with small hills.

One can see the spurs of the Sikhote-Alin ranges from any point of the town in clear weather. There is Salskaya Hill which is an extinct volcano towering on the coats of the Bolshaya Ussurka . Closeness of the taiga and the mineral springs, Lastochka and Shmakovka, numerous lakes and rivers, an abundance of sunny days and a quiet measured life of the town make Dalnerechensk a tourist attraction.
