Better "rested", "unforgettable", "awesome". Everything else is pretty decent...

Visited the rock after Irina and her unforgettable experience. You can’t even take them out with Kamaz. It remains to build a waste incineration plant. Work for him for the budget century!

08/11/2014 trip to Kiselyukha. In addition to the described walking route from Tuapse along the seashore, for trekking lovers there is also hiking route No. 2. Here are the coordinates: 44°06’04.9″N 39°03’16.9″E jumper stairs through the forest from the city up to the road. And then go simply and easily to the camping-rock. And do not break your legs, and be afraid to stumble. The main thing for us was to find this secret staircase, which sounded somewhere in the internet. We walked back along the coast for a change, it was lunchtime and +34 gr. To be honest, I didn’t really like roasting under the sun and jumping on stones at the same time. But purely technically the route is not difficult. There is exactly 4 km of path from the stairs to the rock. IN hot weather water with you must be present, etc.

What are you people? What cars? This is a reserve of virgin nature, I was there at the end of September, my husband and I walked first up the stairs, and then along the asphalt, beauty, autumn is good, though the wind is by no means summer! It was scary to walk along the highway absolutely not for pedestrians, cars rushing at speed, and we stomped along the side of the road! 4km!

Today I was with my wife on this legendary rock. The nature views are really beautiful! But as they wrote above, there are cars around, only pay money. In the very place where people bathe, it’s a fucking srach! Judging by the "sign", swimming is prohibited, but few people are interested in this. The route from the camping car camp is not difficult, but it is possible to twist your leg. The scenery from the observation deck is magnificent!

Near resort town Tuapse along the Black Sea is located forest park Kadosh. The forest park covers an area of ​​300 hectares and is a natural monument with a protected area. A variety of flora grows on the hilly terrain, including plants listed in the Red Book. Oak, chestnut, maple, pine, beech, yew grow here, there are rare species orchids and vines. The most popular attraction of the forest park Kadosh is the Kiseleva rock, on which the rock layers are located vertically. The rock got its name in honor of the Russian landscape painter Alexander Alexandrovich Kiselev, who captured it in his paintings.

How to get to the Kiseleva rock

• By taxi. The easiest and fastest option is to take a taxi from Tuapse to the car camping "Kiselyov's Rock". The distance will be no more than 9 kilometers, the travel time is 20 minutes. The cost is from 500 rubles.
• On public transport. From railway station you can get to the Kadosh microdistrict by bus number 18. Please note that the bus runs with a large interval of movement. The distance from the railway station to the stop at the request of "Rock of Kiseleva" will be 8 kilometers, the journey time is 40 minutes. The fare is from 15 rubles.
• Boat excursion. During the summer season from seaport Tuapse organize daily excursions on the boat to the Kiselev rock. The cost of the tour is from 500 rubles, the journey time is 30 minutes.
• On your own on foot. The hiking route from Tuapse to the Kiselev rock can be called the most difficult and longest. One route option runs along the beach and is available during the summer. The second option passes through the Kadosh microdistrict and is available all year round.

ABOUT walking route from Tuapse to the Kiselev rock through the Kadosh microdistrict, we will tell you more. Getting to the Kadosh microdistrict is not difficult: from Central Square Tuapse we go along Primorsky Boulevard towards the nearest hills in the western direction. The railway track serves as a reference point, it is difficult to get lost, and this road is very busy. Bus route number 18 passes here, which can take you to the Kiseleva Rock stop if you decide to shorten the walking route.

Passing Primorsky Boulevard, we go further along Maxim Gorky Street, and then along Frunze Street to the pedestrian bridge over the Spider River. Behind footbridge the most interesting part of the route begins.

We cross the bridge over the Spider and go along the right bank of the river up 300 meters to the first five-story building, after which we climb the stairs to the next level. Then we go left through the garages and exit to the iron stairs leading to the top of the hill. It is impossible to navigate here, navigators do not draw the road, and the local architecture is so chaotic that almost every turn is a dead end or rise, after which there is a dead end or another rise. You won’t get lost, but you’ll have to get lost, so it’s better to just ask local residents where the stairs to the top they will show you.

The staircase in the Kadosh microdistrict also serves as a wonderful viewing platform. Having climbed a little higher, you can see the whole city: the seaport, ships, embankment, tower.

After an interesting climb up the stairs through the forest, the boring part of the route along the asphalt road begins. On the road, go 3 kilometers to a fork in the Kiseleva rock. In order not to miss the turn, it is better to use the navigator. After leaving the paved road, you have to walk another 500 meters through the forest towards the sea in order to be on the very edge of the cliff. The path from the cliff in the gorge is quite steep, so you should be careful and careful when descending. You'll have to puff, but the effort will be rewarded. In summer there are always a lot of tourists here. There is a campsite near the road, and the entire coast is busy with tourists. And how wonderful it is to be here in the spring, when there is a unique opportunity to listen to the sound of the sea, which whispers to you alone.

Kiseleva Rock is 46 meters high, which is the height of a 15-storey building. Therefore, once on top of the cliff and looking down, the head begins to spin, and the legs give way. Open space and a steep slope turn the usual 46 meters into adrenaline. Looking at this riot of elements, one remembers that it was here that the episode with fishing from the famous comedy by Leonid Gaidai "The Diamond Arm" was filmed.
On the Kiselev rock there is a small Observation deck from where the breathtaking view opens. It is definitely worth visiting and replenishing your collection of impressions that will warm you on cold winter evenings.

The route from Tuapse to the Kiselev rock and back takes about 5 hours. The distance from the seaport to the Kiselev rock is 6 kilometers. The road is not difficult, but it cannot be called easy either. We can only say with confidence that the impressions of natural architecture will smooth out all the difficulties of the path.

A courageous, hot and bold groom was chosen by the beauty for herself, but the young man turned out to be a poor man. The father did not approve of the choice of his daughter, locked her under seven locks and found a wealthy 70-year-old husband.

Having explored this, the daughter decided to run away from the family and made an appointment with her lover on Mount Kiseleva. Dysheek mounted a horse and galloped headlong to his beloved. Nevertheless, once at the appointed place, he was immediately detained by papa's servants. One awkward step - and quite by accident the guy flew off the cliff into the abyss.

I have been to Kiselyov Rock several times already. And for a long time, when this place did not gain its popularity, and last fall, when we. The place is beautiful and convenient for spending the night in a tent near Tuapse. If only it were cleaner here, but more deserted ...

Kiseleva Rock is located near Tuapse, or rather between Tuapse and Agoy. It reaches a height of 46 meters, and if God forbid it falls, then the resulting "designer" is unlikely to be assembled by anyone. You can drive up to the rock by car, but more on that below. Now it is a popular place with people, but it remains beautiful until now, at least for now. I can’t say that I would advise going there in the summer season, but I don’t quite understand everyone who travels to the Black Sea as savages during this period.

The Kiselev Rock is named after the artist Kiselev, who was the first to capture it in his paintings. His dacha was located nearby on Cape Kadosh. True, this was back in the late 19th - early 20th century. I wonder if it were not for this rock, would anyone know this artist? Or to ask in another way, if not for this artist, who would know this rock? :)

Kiseleva Rock is rightfully the hallmark of the city of Tuapse. It rises 46 meters above it, representing an almost sheer stone block - an amazing creation of nature. There is also an ancient Adyghe legend about the rock: she used to live here beautiful girl named Guash. Her father was rich, owned almost the entire coast, and all the factories belonged to him. But the girl did not like any of the rich suitors: the proud and impregnable beauty rejected everyone. All but one handsome guy. The problem was that he was a groom.

Kiseleva rock

The girl told her father about her intention. He was so disappointed in her that, as a result, he locked the girl up, and in return he betrothed her a new groom, of course, very rich. The girl refused to marry a 70-year-old Circassian. And in the end, the groom-groom appointed a meeting on the rock of Kiselyov: at midnight the horseman galloped here, Guash came too, only now the chase was chasing his beloved. Because right off the cliff, he jumped into the abyss of 46 meters. Guash could not stand it, shed many bitter tears - and eventually followed him ...

This is the legend that explains the name of the rock: the Rock of Tears.

Kiseleva Rock is rightfully the hallmark of the city of Tuapse. It rises 46 meters above it, representing an almost sheer stone block - an amazing creation of nature.

The second name - Kiseleva - arose in honor of the artist of the same name, who immortalized this sheer rock in his paintings. On Cape Kadosh, you can also find the artist's dwelling.

And this 46-meter rock, as if cut off from one edge, was lit up in the famous Soviet film "The Diamond Arm". It is here that Andrei Mironov is surrounded by a halo of holiness, a young boy who literally walks on water. The role of the boy was Nikulin's son - and, unusually, this is his only film role.

You can get to the Kiseleva rock from the beach with mysterious name Spider. You have to walk along large boulders, and the walk itself will take about 40 minutes. Usually, there are fewer tourists here in the low season, and from a steep cliff there is an excellent view of the entire coast. Those wishing to swim are lucky - near this natural monument there is a tiny beach where tourists like to put up tents. From a distance, the Kiseleva rock does not seem so big.
