Lipetsk

Gorgeous rocks

Vorgolsky Reserve, 10 kilometers south of the city of Yelets, Lipetsk region, Russia

Description:

From the cliffs offers a surprisingly beautiful and picturesque view of the river valley and the surrounding forests and expanses. The climate and air in the whole Vorgol Reserve are such that rare plant species bloom here, which are more characteristic of the Alpine meadows and the Caucasus Mountains.

The rocks themselves are formed by numerous clusters of limestone rocks and have sheer slopes. Of particular interest are these rocks for climbers and anyone interested in this sport. The height of the rocks is 10-12 meters, in some places it can reach 20-25 meters. The difficulty of passing routes varies from 5a to 8a. In the summer, the Climbing Federation holds tournaments and mountaineering festivals here. The most interesting for climbers are the peaks of Zvonari, Crow Stone, Smoked Stone, Fox Stone, Kichi. The relief of the rocks is quite unique even for experienced climbers.

Vorgol rocks are almost wild, devoid of civilization places. Rest in these places is a great opportunity to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and feel the beauty of Russian nature.
