Along the rocky cliffs of Bolshoy Thach mountain. Walking tour

Our hike passes through the territory of the Bolshoy Thach Nature Park, on the border of the Krasnodar Territory and the Republic of Adygea. 

The route through the Bolshoy Thach Nature Park is one of the most picturesque in the Western Caucasus, and the park itself is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List and is the pride of Adygea. Sheer cliffs, rocky ledges, grottos, caves, rich forests, alpine meadows and blooming rhododendrons — all this and much more awaits us on our journey.
