Although the route belongs to the highest category of difficulty, it nevertheless does not make any supernatural demands on the participants. The main thing is not to be afraid of anything and follow the instructions of the instructor. You will learn technical skills (working with rope, etc.) on the spot - they will tell you everything and show you everything. Physical training certainly won’t hurt, but it’s not as necessary as a banal “head on your shoulders.”

Day by dayItinerary
1 Day 1. Simferopol, Angarsk pass, Funa pass, familiarization with equipment, MAN cave
The group meets in Simferopol, right at the railway station, at approximately 10 am. After meeting the instructor, food and equipment are distributed, and the first brief briefing takes place. It will take about an hour to travel to the starting point - to the Angarsk Pass (height 752m). From there we will head along the Elkh-Kaya ridge to today's overnight stop - a cozy clearing beyond the Funa Pass. By the way, this pass is an excellent viewing platform (panorama of the Alushta Valley, the sea, Demerdzhi). Having set up camp, we will begin to get acquainted with ropes, knots, safety systems and other equipment necessary for our extreme tour. If you have time, in the evening you can visit the MAN cave and arrange a small speleo dive there - a descent (by rope, of course) to the lower gallery of the cave, richly decorated with stalactites and stalagmites. Even before our era, this hall of the MAN cave was chosen by the ancient Tauri for their sanctuary. On the way back you will have to sweat a little - a 30-meter rope climb awaits you. This is very useful for consolidating the information received today on mining technology.
2 Day 2. Northern Demerdzhi, rope crossing, Dzhurla tract
In the morning we break camp and set out to assault Northern Demerdzhi (altitude 1359 m). The climb there is relatively simple and in good weather, in one and a half to two hours we will be photographed against the backdrop of exotic radio reflectors installed on the top back in Soviet times. Then we cross the Demerdzhi plateau and go out to its eastern edge is rocky and steep. Here, between two rocky capes, a rope will be stretched crossing. Sliding along a rope over an abyss is an extremely exciting activity. I'm sure that once you doesn't seem like enough :) Having completed the training, we will go down for the night to the cozy valley of the Dzhurla stream. Small waterfalls, nostalgic birch trees and sharp rocks around - a great place.
3 Day 3. South Demerdzhi, rappel to the Valley of Ghosts, Radiant, Simferopol
The last stage of our extreme weekend will take place on the slopes of South Demerdzhi. Naturally, for this you first need will climb to its top, more precisely to the so-called Crown (altitude about 1200m). This is one of the best lookouts sites of Crimea, I am sure that you will spend a lot of time photographing the surrounding beauty. And then we'll cross over climb one of the stone towers and from its top we will begin our rappel descent into the legendary Valley of Ghosts. Bizarre stone sculptures, dwarf pine trees hanging over the abyss and a narrow path winding between them... Having descended from the mountain, we will reach the final point of our tourist route - the village of Luchistoye. From here you can go to Simferopol or Alushta. If you plan to leave the same evening, then take train tickets departing from Simferopol no earlier than 19:00.
