This is not a shortened route, as it might seem from the name, and not a path to the fox hole, but a full-fledged attraction associated with a walk in the fresh air. To overcome the path, one desire is not enough. It will take time, physical fitness and a pair of comfortable shoes. The trail was laid under the leadership of Prince Golitsyn, and improved and expanded by decree of Emperor Nicholas II. The trail winds at an altitude of 30 meters above sea level and in the summer attracts the attention of almost all visiting tourists. At the official entrance from the embankment last season they took 30 hryvnias (100 rubles) from the nose, but in the off-season such gop-feet stopped. Once on the trail all alone, it was interesting to imagine summer pandemonium here. The path leads the traveler from the western tip of the village up to the rock of Two Monks, which surely hangs over the sea under Mount Karaul-Oba.
Only the most prepared and enthusiastic people can get there. They will be able to go around a couple of mountain ranges and find the most beautiful stone staircase that I have seen only in the photograph, leading through a rocky crevice. As a reward, they will get a unique opportunity to take a picture on the Golitsyn bench, carved into the rock of the seat, and see a gorgeous panorama, cut off only by the horizon and the outlines of the graceful Mount Medved. I was not in the best shape, and even with children, so I will only announce the most popular part of the route. The trail, going around Cape Plosky, changes the scenery from vegetable green to rocky gray. Having overcome the first hundreds of meters, we will find ourselves in the Golitsyn grotto, which, due to excellent acoustics and unconfirmed rumors about the local performance of the great Chaliapin. The grotto is very comfortable to explore. In the center is a well with drinking water.
Shelving for storing the wine collection is carved into the back wall. A little further on, there is an arched entrance that apparently connected the space of the grotto with the cellars of the factory, which is quite a reasonable and pragmatic goal for table setting. There were mainly celebrations and family dinners. My daughter, having listened to the information about the acoustic capabilities of the grotto, began to study them in practice. And my wife and I shamelessly stared at an elderly citizen who was hiding from topical problems in a niche carved into the rock and thoughtfully tasting from his throat, a newly acquired wine collector's edition. Leaving the man in the image, we went further up the stairs to inspect Robber Bay. Where did this name come from, I think it is clear to everyone.
The place is really glorious, to take into account the change of day and night, lick your wounds, sharpen swords or sleep nobly before the next robbery. On the map here is the Dikiy beach. Weighty boulders and a complete lack of sand turn the beach into a lifeless rock formation. Although, I am sure that in the summer there will be lovers of brutal beauty and non-standard entry into the water. Further, the path climbs up to lead you to Cape Kapchik or to the Through Grotto. The safety of the passage is noticeably reduced due to the steepness of the slope and the disappearance of barriers. Next, you will need a sports uniform and dexterity. For the presence of both, you can get to the Through Grotto, which pierces through the cape and takes you to the Royal Beach. This unique natural formation in a rock 77 meters long and 17 meters high served as a decoration for the trail under Prince Golitsyn and at the same time a home for homeless bats.
Recently, the state of the grotto has been recognized as emergency and the through passage has been cancelled. You can admire the grotto through the lattice, and to go down to the beach you will have to use a longer route. Behind Cape Kapchik there is a royal beach named after Emperor Nicholas II, who loved to dive here. Until 1927, a path to the beach was cut down, which, after a well-known earthquake, fell into disrepair. The beach is still accessible to indefatigable individuals, although it is classified as closed due to the possibility of landslides. True, such superstitions are hardly taken into account by lovers of crystal clear water in the chic Blue Bay. For a safer trip, many choose private boats. In the 1960s, color coding was introduced to designate the bays of the New World. The location of the city beach and the beginning of the Golitsyn trail belongs to Zelenaya Bay.
The territory behind the Chaliapin grotto, where the robbers and run wild introverts and visitors to the Dikiy-Blue Bay beach lodged. Well, the royal baths territorially belong to the Blue Bay. By the way, this area was very popular for domestic cinema. The hero of Mikhail Kokshenov in "Sportloto-82" was hiding on the beach in a stone on Tsarsky Beach, the landscapes for "Amphibian Man" were filmed in the same Blue Bay, and Rambo of the 80s Sergey Eremenko waved "airplane" into the water in the film " Pirates of the 20th century” from Cape Kapchik. (By the way, this photo shows irrefutable proof that the earth is round! I recommend using it as evidence for incredulous children after your futile attempts to explain everything on your fingers). The Golitsyn trail is a great entertainment and unity with nature at the same time.
This was recognized by the nobility of the capital, who visited Golitsyn, and by my contemporaries. To overcome the first most picturesque part of the route of one kilometer, special preparation is not required. A walk along rocky "verandas" in the arms of juniper-pine vegetation will give you a good mood and a sense of beauty. The further section is already more sporty, which, I am sure, only a few show. Being in Novy Svet and not walking along the Golitsyn trail is like opening a bottle of Novy Svet champagne and changing your mind about drinking it. Well, or buy a car, so that only its tires can be pumped up. And if I settled here for another week, then I would probably get a travel card for this type of entertainment.
