Camel (Camel), 885 m, the start of the ascent is from the intersection of the trail to the saddle and the ring road: 44.195016, 42.878319.
We leave the hotel at 8:30, drive through the village of Novobrazdarnoye to the base of Mount Camel — the westernmost peak of Kavminvod.
From the cars, we climb for 30-40 minutes to the saddle between the Eastern and Western peaks of the mountain.
First along a dirt road, then along a well—visible path.
From the saddle, we walk for another 30 minutes along a steep path, bypassing rocky ledges, and reach the highest point of the Western Peak.
After viewing the panoramas, we descend to the saddle and return to the cars along the trail.
According to the condition and desire of the group, you can climb from the saddle to the second peak of the Camel.
The ascent and descent will take about an hour.
Bull (Bullhead), 817 m, the start of the ascent is from a spring on the outskirts of the village: 44.177557, 42.952992.
Mount Bull is located 4 km east of Mount Camel, half a kilometer east of the village of Bykogorka.
The mountain has the shape of a dome with a jagged ridge consisting of three peaks — the Northern Hill (760 m), the Main Peak (817 m) and the Datolith Hill (680 m).
Due to this structure, the mountain looks like a humpback bull with its head down from the side.
We rise from the fork of the paved roads on the eastern outskirts of the village.
First we go along a dirt road, then along a well—visible path that passes through a small forest and leads towards the highest point of the mountain.
The last 10-meter "takeoff" to the top requires attention and — depending on the preparation of the group — basic insurance.
- It takes from 1.5 to 2 hours to get up from the cars.
- The descent takes about an hour.
Accommodation: 3* hotel, Pyatigorsk.
Meals: breakfast at the hotel, lunch on the route.
