Steppe grasslands are regions with vast expanses of grasses and herbs but are largely devoid of trees.

The climate in steppe regions often features hot summers with temperatures that can reach or exceed 40 °C (104 °F) and winters that are relatively warm compared to other cold climates but can still experience temperatures below freezing.

This combination of temperature extremes and the absence of significant tree cover aligns with the description provided in the question.
