Adygea settlement Guzeripl. Rest in Guzeripl

A small mountain village is located in the south of the Republic of Adygea in the foothills of the Caucasus Range, on the territory of the Caucasian Reserve. Guzeripl is known for its pristine nature and the famous dolmen.

The village of Guzeripl, located in a remote corner of Adygea, is a historical and natural value. Guzeripl itself was founded at the beginning of the 20th century as a cordon of the Caucasian Reserve. A little later, he became part of the Khamyshinsky rural district as a logging village.

The Adyghe pronunciation of the village is “gozaripl”, which means “observant” in translation. In essence, this is true, since the village is the most remote settlement at the foot of the Caucasus Mountains, and is located like a guard on the way to the beautiful and densely populated valley of the Belaya River. The village was built at an altitude of six hundred and seventy meters above sea level, among high mountain peaks covered with fir forests. Healing mountain air, crystal clear water of the Belaya River, delightful Caucasian nature made the former logging village a desirable place for recreation and tourist center. Guzeripl is surrounded by high mountain ranges on all sides, which creates a special microclimate in this valley.

Behind the bridge located in the village over the Belaya, the lands of the Caucasian Biosphere Reserve begin, there is a cordon through which you can get to its territory. In the reserve, you can visit a museum dedicated to the nature of the Caucasus and the history of the restoration of the population of the Caucasian bison, go on an excursion to the Molchele River, see the largest dolmen preserved on the lands of Adygea and a monument on the mass grave of the soldiers-defenders of Guzeripl. The sights of Guzeripl rightfully include the old railway, which is the starting point of the most famous tourist route. Every year, international rafting competitions - Interrally Belaya start from the village.

The population of the village is very small, according to the official census it is about 100 people. This one comes alive locality with the arrival of tourists, who are very numerous here. Currently, Guzeripl is a rapidly developing tourist center. The village has all the prerequisites to become an excellent tourist center of the Caucasus in the near future. In Guzerple, the construction of tourist complexes is constantly underway. In the village there are various hotels, well-equipped for every taste. Fans of "wild recreation" can always set up camp in any place they like. Especially popular with tourists is the area in front of the village, where in the summer there are permanent camps. A good paved road from Maykop has been laid to the village.

The village of Guzeripl borders on the Caucasian Biosphere Reserve, which can be reached through a bridge in the center of the village. Its main attraction is the Museum of Nature of the Caucasian Reserve. Walking along the road from the bridge across the river to the museum, you can admire the bewitching artificial waterfall of the Molchepa River, which falls from the dam of a small hydroelectric power station. The area adjacent to the territory of the museum is protected. Not far from the building itself there is a dolmen, in Adygea it is impossible to find an analogue to it in terms of size and safety.

During the Patriotic War in 1942, fierce battles took place on this territory, as evidenced by the mass grave of the soldiers who defended the Caucasus, the shooters of the 379th mountain rifle regiment. The museum itself was founded about 60 years ago and occupies several halls. They tell about the history of the creation of the reserve, the flora and fauna are widely represented. animal world. The museum exhibits voluminous exhibits - stuffed animals. They are collected in biological groups, presented in their natural habitat. High-quality photographs, panoramas, original expositions help visitors to get acquainted with amazing nature this edge. The museum welcomes its visitors cordially without breaks and weekends.

The path to the museum lies through the post of the biosphere reserve, located on the left bank of the Belaya. Entrance to the Museum of Nature is paid. From the bridge over the river to the museum, you need to walk about three hundred meters along the road.

On the right and left banks of the Belaya River, on the territory of the Caucasian Biosphere Reserve and in the glade of tourist rallies, there are the remains of the dolmen of the village of Guzeripl. This archeological monument of the 1st-2nd millennium BC is one of the largest composite, well-preserved dolmens in southern Russia. In Adygea, it is impossible to find an analogue to it in terms of size and safety. It is huge, massive and mysterious.

Striking with an engineering solution, laboriousness, sophisticated at first glance, rough architecture, the megalith is still a mystery today. Many scientists believe, and this is the main version, that dolmens are funerary megalithic structures of the Early and Middle Bronze Age. Another theory is popular, according to which elderly people went to die in them. There, in complete darkness and silence, they prayed and waited for death. Another group of scientists believe that dolmens, along with the pyramids, are part of the overall planetary structure. The points where they stand are chosen deliberately. Dolmens are unique conductors that connect the earth with the information space matrix that ensures the development of all life forms on Earth.

The sights of Guzeripl rightfully include the old railway. In pre-war times, the settlement itself had two camps with convicts: a general and a strict regime camp - it housed repressed Don Cossacks, who for a time were engaged in harvesting and sending timber. The narrow-line railway, 3 kilometers long, was located behind the village cemetery. Wood was transported on a cart with horses and on a motor-cart. After that, the wood was rafted down the Belaya mountain river. The war began, the zones were closed. The cordon of the Caucasian reserve "Suvorovsky" is located in residential buildings.

After the end of the war, it was from the end of the old railway that the trail of the famous tourist route of All-Union significance began. It ran to the Partizanskaya Valley, to the Fisht shelter and had access to the Black Sea coast. Now it is the most famous and popular tourist route. Partizanskaya Polyana can be reached both by car and on foot.

Rising up, you can admire the amazing nature, enjoy the clean mountain air. The combination of picturesque nature with turbulent rivers, the historical past, and modern tourism makes the village attractive for visiting not only professional tourists, but also amateurs. family vacation. And the old Railway is the starting point of the most famous route.

In order to view the valley of the Belaya River, there are several panoramic points, which are a special attraction of the village of Guzeripl.

A small observation platform is located in the center of the village, on the Black Rock. The rock breaks off to the south with black coal shales and has a fairly wide flat area with tall slender pines. From here you can see the eastern part of the village. Just above this place there is a large observation deck. From the very peak of the rocky ridge, a magnificent view of the southern and central part of the village opens up. A safe path leads to this point from the Small Platform to the rocks, shaped like a rooster's comb.

The third observation platform is located on the southern slope of Mount Kazachya. There is a wide path and goes to the rock formations. From the rocky shelves you can see the Abago, Atamazhi and Guzeripl village views. From this place you can admire not only the beauty of the village, but also the magnificence of the mountains, breathe the cleanest air, recharge with cosmic energy. On the territory of the reserve, on the slope of Mount Filimonov, there is another view point from which you can observe the beauty of nature untouched by man. Compared to other viewpoints, it is rarely visited by tourists.

One of the most beautiful places The south of Russia is, undoubtedly, Adygea, its mountainous part.
I confess, I never rented a house there, there was no need for it. From Krasnodar to the mountain fairy tale of Adygea 150-200 km. We leave at 6 am and return at 21 pm. We can have lunch in one of the many cafes, but more often we just take sandwiches, fruits and hot raspberry tea from home.
Today I will tell you about the Sights of Adygea, or rather about one February day in Adygea, which we started with a trip to Guzeripl. We walked around the reserve there, went to the mountains to Partizanskaya Polyana, admired the Granite Canyon and got the most vivid emotions from the view of the Lago-Naki plateau from the Utyug cliff.
So, I invite you to witness our weekend trip, and I will try to convey the clean mountain air and the beauty of this area through photographs.
We left Krasnodar before dawn, the navigator showed 210 km. By 8 am we arrived at the village of Kamennomostsky (Khadzhokh), leaving behind Belorechensk and Maykop. There are 46 km ahead to Guzeripl along a beautiful road with natural attractions.

granite canyon

Highway A-159 in two lanes, winding, with mountain landscapes. It passes along the edge of the Granite Gorge, in which the Belaya River carries its waters from the mountains.

Passing by, I want to stop at every turn to look at the beauty of the river bends, rolling over the rapids with noise, rumbling through the rifts.





The unforgettable charm of the river in its "frame". A gorge made of granite monolith, which, depending on the weather and season, acquires different shades… pink, peach, beige, gray, black. And the river - from dirty brown to emerald and even white.
The canyon is very deep and narrows very much in places. In these places, the river twists into whirlpools and rolls the stream along the gorge with great power.





Along the banks, cyclamens and blueberries bloom like a bright carpet. Birds whistle trills, rejoicing at the approaching spring. A spring with freezing mountain water.


Guzeripl

Imperceptibly, without turning anywhere, we reached the end highway. The river blocked the way. In this place is the "Workshop of rafting". Water tourism professionals, river rafting masters, the best rafting in Adygea - such epithets are full of reviews on the Internet. In early May, international rafting competitions are held on the Belaya River. It is interesting to watch how the participants cross the rapids on rafts and kayaks. Here, at this time, the festival of bards "Primrose" is held. But such beauty opened up to us the river on the descent.

There were no emergencies. A childhood habit has not been eradicated in me - to climb some pebble just like that ... Well, my soul sings, and I want space and height. This time I'm out of luck! Look at the large shiny stone near me. It does not shine from water, it is covered with ice.
I don’t know where my vigilance and attentiveness have gone, but in a matter of seconds I take off my hood from my head and climb onto a stone. She slipped and fell back. My husband did not even have time to shout, as I ended up in the river. She scratched her hand, hit her ribs, the down jacket got wet, her hair instantly became icicles. Fortunately for me, I took a jacket and trousers with me. I warmed up and dried in the car for a while, changed clothes and was ready for adventure again.

Guzeripl was founded as a village of lumberjacks. He is in a dead end. The population is just over 100 people. Mountain air, river, picturesque nature attract tourists here. This is the last settlement before the Caucasian Biosphere Reserve.



Interesting tourist routes in Adygea for mountain lovers with backpacks and tents also start from here. Yavorova Polyana, Armenian Pass, Fisht Shelter, Circassian Pass, Mount Oshten, many natural objects for hiking over long distances.
We were interested in the Cordon of the Caucasian Reserve. We bought tickets at the box office, they also sell passes to the reserve for long trips.



We pass through the bridge to the reserve.



I love this slightly cultivated nature.













Information stands.



Guzeriplsky dolmen-giant with a height of more than two meters.



A small Museum of Nature, where you can see an impressive effigy of the Caucasian bison, as well as wild boars, wolves, herbarium, photographs.





We also saw live pigs.

It is not worth placing high hopes on the Guzeripl nature reserve, there are no special entertainments. There is amazing nature, the purest mountain air with the smell of fresh resin of pine needles. Natural open-air museum.







partisan glade

Leaving Guzeripl, at the first turn to the left, along the only paved road, we turned towards the mountains.
The road is good, with the exception of a couple of places where there was a slight mudflow.

View from the road to the Stone Sea ridge.

Snow on the roadside lies in huge cleared snowdrifts.

Admiring the surroundings, after 18 km we drove up to the Partizanskaya glade. The name is directly related to the red partisans of the times civil war. They had their headquarters here.
It is currently a transit point for tourist route to Mount Fisht, Oshten, Stone Sea, Yavorov Polyana.





The recreation center "Partizanskaya Polyana" did not attract us with anything special. In the house where tourists stop, they met a bored watchman. We learned from him that in the summer, people gather on a picturesque lake for a picnic and fishing, and in winter they come to ride snowmobiles, sledges, and skis.
I have not singled out for myself some interesting equipped slides for such winter fun. Looking around, she heard a joyful loud murmur. A black fluffy cat ran towards the uninvited guests.
It was worth paying a little attention to him, and he, as a forest owner, accompanied us throughout the territory of the Partizanskaya glade and the frozen lake. When they got ready for the return trip, they treated the cat with cookies, he looked with bewilderment and reproach, they say, I didn’t come to you for food, but for communication. And when they left, he ran after the car meowing angrily. This is such short-term love at first sight.



Oxygenated air has a magical effect on me. My emotions speak volumes about it. :)

Here it is Mountain Lake Partizanskaya glade at an altitude of 1600 meters above sea level, at the foot of the Stone Sea ridge. In summer, glades are in flowers, and mountains are reflected in the lake.

The Stone Sea Ridge is unusual in its appearance and chaotic, rugged limestone unearthly relief. It surrounds the alpine plateau of Lago-Naki from the east with a twenty-five-kilometer arc.
If you drive another six kilometers to the west, you can see the Yavorova glade, where the road ends, there is a barrier and the reserve begins with hiking trails. It is planned to build a large ski complex there.

Great mood in nature in sunny weather. We played snowballs and made a snowman. The cat, by the way, also took an active part in our games.

On this day, we still had to see the Lago-Naki plateau from the side of the Iron rock and we decided to go further.
They descended, overtaking timber trucks and traditional cows defiling along the roadsides.





Belaya River

Having left on the route "Guzeripl - Maykop", we went down to the Belaya River.

Here is an incorrigible one… Just a few hours ago, climbing a stone, I already dived into the river, and still it pulls to the height!

Very beautiful coastline. Here you want to stay longer. The uniqueness of these places is emphasized by pines, spruces, hornbeam, beech, juniper, hazelnuts, barberries, and most importantly, you are alone among all this splendor, the season of mass departure of tourists has not yet begun.



A picturesque place in Adygea for nature lovers. And in the spring favorite place rafters, as there are many interesting rapids and rifts on the river.





This seems to be the off-season. Winter is still on the calendar, and only the first flowers remind of the first breath of spring. Not crowded, everyone is waiting for greenery. But even in the gray colors of the sleeping forest, the river fascinates with its seething stream and carved banks.







My only regret is that there is no footpath. Looking at this beauty from a car window is a crime, and walking along the highway is unsafe.

The most beautiful sights of the Belaya River (Adygea):

  1. Khadzhokhskaya gorge (settlement of Kamennomostsky).
  2. Granite Canyon (to the south of the Dakhovskaya village, before reaching the village of Khamyshki).
  3. Confluence with the Kishi River (near Andreevskaya ravine between Khamyshki and Guzeripl)
  4. Valley of Ammonites (between the villages of Abadzekhskaya and Khadzhokh under the automobile bridge over the Belaya River, where the river washed out large stone balls of bizarre shape with petrified ammonites).

Plateau Lago-Naki

On the final chord of the weekend in nature, we left a visit to the Utyug rock with stunning views of the Lago-Naki plateau.
The road passes partly through Adygea and through the territory of the Krasnodar Territory.
Made the first stop at observation deck overlooking the village Dakhovskaya, near a small market with souvenirs. We were interested in the bird's eye view.







But on the road, near the turn to the Azishskaya cave, there was a brisk trade.



On the Azish Pass I only have time to turn my head - beauty is everywhere. Primer road.



Near the hotel complex "Azish-Tau" noticed gentle slopes, equipped for skiing on cheesecakes, sledding and skiing, with open rental points.

Happy New Year!

Today we returned from a trip to the winter Guzeripl. I already wrote about this place in a post from. But earlier all our trips here took place in the summer-autumn time. But now they are worthy of winter. And, as they say, a report in hot pursuit:
1.


We drove up to Guzeripl in a slight disappointment. The snow promised by the forecast was present, but it was somehow very poor. The sun shone like spring, slightly warming. The road is in excellent condition. But there are some surprises:
2.



It’s even scary to imagine if such a pebble hits a car. And rock "painting" is oppressive!

3. The Belaya River was calm, shallow and relatively transparent:

4.

5. Although in some places on our way (at the confluence of Kishi and Belaya) as always buzzed and seethed in full:

6. Rafting on the Belaya it stops and in winter. Only the ammunition of the rafters changes and the start time of the rafting from the rafting workshop in Guzeripl is at 11:00 and 14:00:

7. The weather is great in Guzeripl. Only slightly windy

8.

For those interested in a trip to this wonderful place. In spite of high prices in new year holidays(doubled), all hotels are packed to capacity. Don't be discouraged by the lack of cars in front of the hotels for good luck. We ourselves were surprised by this fact, but in the evening the picture was completely different. The parking lots are busy too. People returned from various places: Lago-Naki, Dakhovskaya, Khomyshki, Pobeda village, Partizanskaya Polyana, etc.
Additional services (baths, walks on various types of transport, etc.) for the period of the New Year holidays also doubled in price,
By the way, we, as regular guests of the Belaya Reka Hotel, were given a gift by the administration - a trip to the spa area of ​​the hotel along regular prices. For which they respect.

After a successful accommodation, we went for a walk along Guzeripl and to the reserve. Have done this several times on previous visits. But we are happy to go again.
9. Snow on roadsides:

10. The reserve met with slush of snow mixed with mud. But the mood was good and they did not pay attention to such nuances:

11. Artificial dam on the Molchepa River in place :)

12. Wonderful pavilion on the bank of the Belaya, where it is very pleasant to relax!

13. Such a highly artistic scarecrow guards the gardens of the staff of the museum of the reserve:

Well, these are two exhibits from the same museum. By the way, these stuffed she-bears and cubs were made in 1936 and are still in excellent condition. You can even see it in the photos:
14.

15.

16. In the evening, to the delight of all the guests of our and other hotels, it began to snow.

17. And by morning, Guzeripl and its surroundings were transformed into a view more suitable for this time of year and pleasing gas:

18.

19.

20.

21. From the very early morning, the rumble of ATVs, all-terrain buggies is heard.

Having driven along Guzeripl, we headed to the Partizanskaya glade.
The road has not been cleared yet. The autotourists who passed ahead of us broke a rut. On it we moved to a clearing located at an altitude of 1600 m above sea level. The road goes up all the time. From Guzeripl we need to climb 900 m higher.

22. In the morning it was rather cloudy and the mountains looked unfriendly.

23.

A couple of times I had to help get stuck motorists.
By the way, the geography of the guests of Guzeripl is very extensive. The main part of the guests is Krasnodar region. There are a lot of Rostov, Stavropol, Muscovites, St. Petersburg, Voronezh, Volgograd residents ... The list can be very long.

24. They pushed not this Rostovite, but another master. He, in joy, that got out umotal far enough. And its passengers (in the left corner of the picture) will take a long time to catch up with their carrier on foot, which is not very easy uphill and in the snow :)

Having reached the Partizanskaya glade, we literally got into a snowstorm. Very strong wind, blizzard. The temperature in comparison with Guzeripl dropped to -5. And with the wind - it's all -15! The bugles don't work. The parking lots are covered in snow. You can turn around only with the principle of Tetris. About 10 people tried to sled. My companion flatly refused to get out of the car. Maybe we just got here at the wrong time.

25. With a word, they turned around and leaned back.

26. As if in apology for the spoiled toboggan holiday, the sun periodically peeked out from behind the clouds and all the charm of winter landscapes opened before us:

27.

At the urgent request of my companion, Santa Claus brought her a gift - a digital soap box. And now pictures from Elena are pouring in like from a cornucopia. It's nice that I have a co-author on the pictures. Yes, and your obedient servant began to appear more often in photographs, which is good:
28.

29.

30.

31.

32. What spruces and firs are here! The beauty!

33. Bridge over the Zhelobnaya river:

34.

Having received your dose of adrenaline from the difficult part of the road and weather conditions trips to the Partizanskaya glade, having seen enough of the winter beauties of the mountain forest, having received a lot of pleasant impressions, we returned to the hotel.

And in the evening, the promised spa area of ​​the Belaya Reka Hotel was waiting for us.
Abstracting from a pleasant gesture on the part of the hotel in the form of non-use of holiday cheats in relation to us, we must pay tribute to the quality of the services provided. And the services most in demand are a bathhouse (sauna or hammam of your choice) and a swimming pool. Everything is done according to the highest class, automated, excellent locker rooms with all necessary accessories, showers, spacious steam rooms, a fairly large pool with a set of hydromassage equipment, beautiful lighting, good music, and a bar if desired. In a word, everything contributes good rest and good mood. We didn’t take photos, it wasn’t up to them :))

The next morning was snowy. Wet snow just fell. The weather was not conducive to the planned walk. After a short gathering, we sadly parted with Guzeripl and headed towards the house. On the way, we decided to stop by the monastery of St. Michael's Hermitage in the village of Pobeda. Have been here many times but want to visit again.

35. The snow did not stop for a second all our way to the monastery, and even during our stay there:

36. Holy Trinity Church, monastery refectory:

37. It is gratifying that so many parents come to this Holy place with own children:

38. Colorful donkey (in this situation, rather a donkey) and his owner in the parking lot near the monastery, waiting for customers:

39. In the Holy Trinity Church of the monastery, despite the bad weather, it was very crowded:

40.

41.

42. Assumption temple of the monastery:

43. Visitors were allowed to go up to the dome area of ​​the Holy Trinity Church, from where a wonderful view of the surroundings certainly opens. But not today. The snow hid all the nearby beauties:

On this our winter travel in Guzeripl ended. We were very satisfied. We made sure that you can relax here at any time of the year. Now we plan to return here in April-May 2015 with the hope of seeing rafting competitions. As we were told, the spectacle is amazing.

Thanks for your time and good luck!

Give feedback

Julia Stepochkina I liked it very much! wild nature very clean and nice! The fern is impressive, it is rampant, I have not seen anything like it anywhere else! Amazing place! We went down to the waterfall, just found ourselves in a fairy tale! When you walk along a path in the forest, it seems that this is the most the best place in the world) People, thank you for protecting this corner untouched by civilization, it even breathes somehow differently)))

Elena Chebotkova Sea of ​​impressions. We received a lot of positive emotions. Everywhere is clean. The only thing to which there is a small wish is that there are too few animals in the living corner area. I would like to see there representatives of other species, besides those that are there.

Lexx Were at the January holidays. A waterfall, rivers, sledding from a hill right opposite the entrance and then went further - there is such a big dolmen, and a real live deer with horns and in the neighboring enclosure 2 wolves run in a circle and lick their lips at a deer. It can be seen that such wild animals cannot be found in urban zoos. There was an exhibition in the museum but we didn't go and didn't go to the rope park either - it was cold. Probably because they were sober and with small children

Lyubov Kasyutina The beauty and scale of this vast place conquered. Thanks to the workers of the reserve for the preservation of this pristine natural wealth.

Elena. Usik A good place for family outdoor recreation, there is a rope park for kids, I liked the museum which has seat place and there is a film about the Caucasian nature, the entrance to the territory of the reserve costs 300 rubles. There is also a dolmen.

Alexey Pobegailov The administration was brazen, new year holidays made an entrance 600r. per person, although it has always been 150-200r. In fact, they are cashing in on a unique natural landscape that does not belong to them.
