Guam Gorge from Maikop: Engine, mountains, waterfall and thermal springs

What's this really about?

Sometimes you just want to sit down and leave. Not in traffic, not to work - but in a place where the mountains hug you from both sides, the old locomotive as alive, and the water in the springs smells of sulfur and childhood.

The Guam Gorge is exactly that place. This is life that has been flowing between the rocks for almost a hundred years.

What we will see and why it touches

The narrow-gauge locomotive is real, with character. It takes you so slowly that you can see every rock, every crack in the rock. I want to look out the window and be silent.

The waterfall of desires is tiny, noisy, wayward. The locals say that if you freeze under his spray and make something really important, the water will remember. We'll check. Even if it doesn’t, a smile will appear.

"Engineer's Mistake" Rock - sounds harsh, but in fact it's a very human story. Someone miscalculated, and now the rock is right across the road. We'll just stand by and think about the fact that even the mountains have blunders.

The Partisan Bridge is an old bridge with roots. He remembers the war, but today he is very peaceful. A good place to share a photo: you are on the bridge, and under you – a gap deep into the gorge.

European necropolis - don't be afraid, it's not scary. It's beautiful and quiet. Old plates with German names, trees, lights. A place where time stopped. Ideal for keeping quiet and breathing.

The monument to the tracker. She used to walk these paths in all weather.

The thermal spring on the way back is an hour of hot, almost cosmic water. You get out of the car tired and chilled, you get into the pool and that's it. The world is getting soft. We will be there exactly an hour to have time to thaw body and soul.

We leave, we go calmly, we are not in a hurry.

Who would do that?

• Travelers who are tired of the cafe-cinema-sofa.
• People who love trains and old iron.
• Those who want to see the mountains without climbing.
• And just those who are tired and looking for a reason to exhale.

It's fair.
