Any inhabitant of Odessa will proudly inform the guest about the "Track of Health"; this relatively young landmark, born in 1960, has so organically fit into the image and life of Odessa that any attempts (and there have been many) to change its status or name cause a storm of negative emotions in the ranks of the townspeople. The health track is a wide paved road connecting the cozy respectable Lanzheron with the cheerful carefree Arcadia. The road is divided into bicycle and jogging paths, along which sidewalks for pedestrians stretch. However, before you go on a leisurely hike, calculate your strength, because the length of the track is more than five kilometers! However, there is always the opportunity to interrupt your journey along the highway by going down one of the ladders to the beach or going up to the city.
And you can rest on a bench in the shade of a sprawling acacia, inhaling the purest sea air and watching the cyclists and runners passing by. The movement of cars on the highway is prohibited, with the exception of open electric vehicles plying from Arcadia to Lanzheron with vacationers on board. Along the track there are many sports grounds, simulators - new and Soviet times, there are also playgrounds, because the Health Track is popular not only among people who lead an active lifestyle, but also among mothers with strollers. Walking slowly along the highway along a shady pedestrian alley, you will discover many new beaches - equipped and not very well equipped. Most of them are sparsely populated due to their "inaccessibility". Many beaches belong to departmental sanatoriums located at the top, on French Boulevard.
Last year, large-scale reconstruction work began on the track, and they are still ongoing. At the moment, the markings and pavement of the paths have been updated, the pedestrian sidewalks have been tiled, and the benches have been updated. However, be prepared for the fact that in some places the track is still very neglected. Shady thickets along the route beckon to have a small picnic here overlooking the sea, but numerous signs warn against making fires, threatening with fines. I cannot fail to note the spring cleanliness of the local slopes. Every March, caring citizens arrange a kind of flash mob, devoting one of their days off to cleaning the public area. Therefore, before launching a bottle into dense thickets of wild rose or letting a candy wrapper into the wind, think about the fact that they will most likely lie here until next year. Do not be lazy to walk a couple of steps to the nearest urn, since there are plenty of them here.
Have a nice holiday! : )
