Mount Kubalach

Kubalach State Reserve, Kubalach Tract
Crimea, Simferopol
State reserve (1978) in a forest area near the village of Topolevka, Belogorsk district. This massif itself - a beautiful green oasis in the east of the foothills of the Crimea - was declared a natural monument in 1969, and in 1980 - a reserved tract. Mount Kubalach is located in the eastern part of the inner ridge of the Crimean mountains, in the Burunduk-Kaya massif, in the Topolevka (formerly Toply) region.

The inner ridge stretches from Sevastopol to Feodosia and in this place reaches its maximum height - more than 700 meters above sea level. Mount Kubalach has a height of 738 m and is the highest point of the second ridge. The vast clearing at the top of the mountain is a great place to view the surrounding mountains. The entire massif is forested and is a real oasis in this region, where the steppe regions of the Crimean foothills lie to the north of the Feodosia highway. The nature of the relief is associated with an increased amount of precipitation, which creates conditions for the development of broad-leaved forests.
Mount Kubalach is the only place not only in the Crimea, but throughout the world, where the rarest endemic, listed in the Red Books, Kuznetsov's cyclamen, grows in its natural state. Cyclamen is named in honor of the famous botanist, it is highly decorative, graceful, beautiful fragrant pink flowers. In addition to cyclamen, other rare plant species listed in the Red Books also live here.
