Mountain crimson Bashkiria. Raspberry sky, crimson house and Raspberry Mountain in Bashkiria! Detailed route description
Article text updated: 05/29/2018
A year ago, I published a short report with photographs taken during a car trip to the city of Beloretsk, the capital of mountainous Bashkiria. Then I was so impressed by the Bashkir landscapes that a crazy thought crept in: “Why not, one fine day, go on vacation by car through the villages of this beautiful republic”? Of course, despite its beauty, this region is still part of Soviet Union. And I want to spend my infrequent holidays somewhere in other worlds. Climb the mountains when the long weekend falls and holidays, is quite real. In May of this year, I once again had a trip by car around Bashkortostan - last year's memories shook my soul. Therefore, when my wife and I were deciding where to leave Yekaterinburg for the June holidays, two candidates were discussed: national park"Taganai" in Chelyabinsk region and mountains in the Beloretsk region. We chose the second one... And today I will start my report with a story about three happy days at the Malinovka recreation center, lost on the banks of a taiga river in the mountains of Bashkiria.
We have gone camping on Taganay with tents and heavy backpacks three times already. I keep threatening to write a report about our adventures, but my hands do not reach (as well as before the story about the ascent to the Zyuratkul ridge in the Satka region). This time we decided that we want to see new landscapes. And they didn't fail...
To be honest, until recently, I only knew about such mountains of Bashkortostan as Big Iremel (height 1582.3 meters), where we also plan to climb, and Yamantau - the most high point on the Southern Urals(1640 meters; visiting by tourists is prohibited, as the military dug it inside with tunnels in which monsters settled; the territory is declared a reserve, and uninvited guests are fed to wild bears). The impressive landscape from Yamantau can be seen if you travel along the M5 highway from Chelyabinsk to Ufa.
And only during a trip to Bashkiria by car last year I learned that there are a huge number of mountain ranges, shikhans and picturesque hills. On that trip, we spent the night in ski resort Abzakovo, located on the Krykty-Tau ridge, next to Mount Shaitan. But I don't like massive, civilized tourist places. It seems to me that everything is somehow refined, artificial. I wanted silence and wildlife.
It turned out that there is such a place very close to Beloretsk. The bulk of Raspberry Mountain (height 1152 meters) rises above the city. Just think about it! At 6 kilometers from a rather large, lively settlement, there is such a wilderness: three-hundred-year-old larches, mountain rivers, mixed-grass flood meadows and marshy swamps. There is no electricity!!! My wife and I, as we looked at the photos on the Internet, decided unambiguously: “Let's go. After all, we definitely need to climb to the top!
Our trip by car to the mountains of Bashkiria
So, the question of where to go for the weekend from Yekaterinburg was resolved. Friends borrowed a tent, a bowler hat, sleeping bags. Prepared everything you need for the trip. But, to be honest, I didn’t want to go long distances in full gear: it’s hard without proper physical preparation. It's easier when you put up a tent in a certain place, and then make forays along a radial route. In addition, the weather forecast in Beloretsk for the June holidays was not encouraging: cloudy, sometimes raining.
AT national park"Taganai" from three trips, twice we climbed the mountains when they were shrouded in clouds. You can't see anything, just a mess. You have traveled 18 kilometers with tens of kilograms on your shoulders, but you have not been able to see the mountains. Therefore, they rejoiced when they learned that at the foot of Mount Raspberry is tourist base"Robin". We decided to rent a house or, at least, pitch a tent on their territory: both the car is under supervision and you can go to the mountains lightly.
As it turned out, not only my wife and I are so advanced - all the cottages are occupied. We'll have to sleep in a tent outdoors.
Unfortunately, Bashkortostan is not a close place to go there by car from Yekaterinburg. The distance to Beloretsk is 440 kilometers. The quality of the asphalt pavement is satisfactory. True, there is a section (fifteen minutes to go), where it is not there at all, but the primer there is normal, you can drive.
Our trip to Bashkiria by car started at 19:30, right after work. My wife picked me up at the office, we changed and hit the road. Despite the late hour, there are traffic jams in the city. We got out of the capital of the Middle Urals for more than an hour. The route of our trip ran through the following cities: Yekaterinburg - Kasli - Kyshtym - Karabash ( scary city) - Miass - Uchaly - Beloretsk. Preparing for the trip, we decided that we would not go at night: we would spend the night in a tent somewhere in the field.
And so it happened. Twenty kilometers from the city of Miass, we turned off the highway onto a country road, moved over the hill so as not to hear the cars and pitched a tent on the grass. Oh, how long have I not had to wake up to the sound of the morning breeze, the murmur of the river and the singing of dozens of field larks! True, it rained a little in the middle of the night. And the morning was cloudy. But, after all, the main thing is a good mood of the tourist!
Got up late. We arrived at the border of Bashkiria only at noon.
Village after village went. One is more colorful than the other. Bashkir villages usually stand at the foot of a huge hill. Locals walk in close-knit groups. What is there? Is it dangerous for tourists?
While we had breakfast in a roadside cafe with delicious Bashkir dishes, got water, took pictures - we arrived in Beloretsk already at three o'clock. At the entrance to the city, an impressive panorama opens up. As soon as I saw Mount Raspberry with my own eyes, I realized that the climb would not be easy. She is such a block, a giant rises above the houses!
There are several routes for climbing to the top of Malinovaya. The most popular one is from the Otnurok farm (it is also called Nura or the Beloretsky forestry enterprise). Here is our goal - the recreation center "Malinovka".
We resolved all issues with the administration, set up a tent, looked around - it was already evening. Climbing to the top takes from 6 hours (round trip). We realized that we might not return before dark. The climb up the mountain on the first day was cancelled. The next morning we agreed that we would join a group of tourists who would raft down the Belaya River. And the next day - we will go on horseback to the distant mountain Yalangas.
We took our backpacks and went to explore the area. 5 kilometers from the Malinovka camp site you can admire the stone river (kurumnik). We were offered to rent bicycles, but we wanted to walk. We admired the mountain river Nura.
By the way, usually professional photographers recommend shooting landscapes using an aperture in the rangef/8-11. In order to blur the water even a little, you need to lengthen the shutter speed. Therefore, I had to reduce the ISO to a minimum, and clamp the aperture to the maximum - tof/22. It seems that nothing happened in terms of sharpness? She didn't get lost much.
And what smells are in the forest! Hundreds of species of flowers now give travelers their scents.
5. Flowers in the taiga. Surroundings of the recreation center "Malinovka". Otnurok village. Weekend hike to Raspberry Mountain in Bashkortostan
From the recreation center to the stone river and back, we walked for about two hours. I think for those who see kurum for the first time, it will seem impressive: to the horizon - placers of huge boulders. We have seen more than once kurumniks on Taganay and Zyuratkul, so we could only regret that we got here not at the “golden hour” of landscape photography.
Tourist base "Malinovka"
As I said earlier, the camp site is located 11 kilometers from the capital of mountainous Bashkiria in the village of Otnurok. On the website of the recreation center you can see a detailed map of the route and coordinates for the navigator (GPS: 54.051778, 58.323562). But, when we entered them into the system, we wandered around Beloretsk and ran into some kind of hill in the private sector. I had to follow the scheme described on the website: we reached Raspberry Street, drove 1.3 km along it and turned left down the hill to the Nura River. There was a pointer "Otnurok" to the right. Further - 10 kilometers on a primer of good quality - and you are there.
The recreation center "Malinovka" is located in picturesque valley between mountains. On the one hand, very close to Raspberry Mountain. On the other hand, a little further (approximately 11 km) rises the peak of Yalangas. Well, there are also mountains around (Golden Cone, Kirel, the tract of the Crane Swamp).
All houses are reserved by more efficient tourists. I had to put up a tent in a clearing on the territory of the complex (50 rubles per person per day). So spending your weekend tour is more convenient than just living in the forest. You are given hot water for free and you can freely rinse in the bath (but the steam room is paid), you can charge the camera batteries in the evening (the diesel generator is turned on for several hours). If you want, order breakfasts (100 rubles) and dinners (300 rubles). Everything is cooked in a Russian oven. Mmmm, how delicious! And when you are in last time drank natural, fresh milk?
Base Malinovka offers bicycles for rent, instructor services for hiking mountains and horseback riding. And behind our fence (so that the bears do not steal) such a dizzying landscape opens up.
7. View behind the wooden fence of the recreation center "Malinovka". The village of Otnurok near Beloretsk. Shot on a Nikon D5100 amateur DSLR with a Samyang 14mm f/2.8 lens on a Sirui T-2204X tripod.
In this photo, taken with a Nikon D5100 DSLR with a Samyang 14mm f/2.8 lens, you can see Mount Yalangas. It was there that we went on horseback on the third day of rest. Height - 1297.9 meters. Our equestrian expedition went to the top and back (with a stop for a halt and lunch and a pause during the ascent to the very top) in 7 hours. By the way, we ate baked potatoes, chicken and tea with taiga herbs.
Our neighbors (a husband and wife of 28 years old and their daughter, who looks like 9 years old) went to Yalangas in 10.5 hours, without an instructor. And the next day they conquered Raspberry (in 7 hours). And all this on foot! Not on horseback.
So, at a wide angle, as you know from my previous photo reports with mountains and rocks, the majesty mountain range hard to convey. It is easier to do this with large focal lengths. Here is a photo taken from the same place, but with a reportage fast lens Nikon 17-55mm f / 2.8.
The clarity will be worse than that of the Samyang 14 / 2.8 fix, what do you think?
If you walk from the Malinovka camp site towards the Otnurok farm itself, this is the view of Mount Raspberry.
9. View of Mount Raspberry from the tourist center "Malinovka". Rest in Bashkiria
By the way, nowhere in the stories of tourists, I did not see a clear description of how to find the path that leads directly to the top. Guys, remember my kindness (and for now, stop reading and please vote by clicking the Google+ button below). I explain where the starting point of the ascent is located (according to the instructor, with whom we rafted on catamarans along the Belaya River).
Here you are driving into the village of Otnurok and the road turns left across the bridge to the recreation center "Malinovka".
10. View of the entrance to the farm Otnurok to the recreation center "Malinovka". On the right is Mount Yalangas. On the left - Raspberry Mountain
See the new house with the green roof? Behind him on the right is Yalangas. On the left is a logging road towards Raspberry Mountain. Here on it and go.
Opposite this place is a house with cranes.
We walked to the stone river (by the way, they say that this is where my favorite adventure film “The Lost Expedition” was filmed), ate canned food stored for a rainy day and went to bed in our room “Ward No. 2” (in the center).
13. Chamber number 2 in the recreation center "Malinovka". In the background is Mount Yalangas, where we climbed on horseback.
Here in the background is a shed where you can dine while escaping the rain and a house. In the distance is the peak of Yalangas.
In the morning we went for rafting on inflatable catamarans on the Belaya River. I didn’t want to take a mirror with me, because I was afraid to drown it. But my review is great! Stunning views, wild taiga along the coast, picturesque rocks and even one grotto we met.
On the third day, a horseback ride to Yalangas was planned. Woke up at 5 am. I decided to check if there will be a beautiful sunrise. The thick fog did not bode well. But, remembering my story “Misting Morning” with photographs taken on the Nikon D5100 KIT 18-55 in the autumn on the same gloomy day, I hoped that I would be able to photograph something interesting.
Just left the territory of the recreation center - towards a sad horse:
— Hey, aspiring photographer! I'm going about my horse business now, and then let's arrange an unusual photo shoot together?
- Okay, Sad Horse, I'll wait ...
The odd-toed ungulate hid in the milky mist. And I agreed to pose for an ancient tractor.
Behind him is a hut, almost on chicken legs.
A little later, the fog cleared, and the top of Malinovaya opened.
I tried to take a picture of the river. But I don't like landscapes with broken skies. It's a boring photo.
Then the local lads came up and offered their services as extras. It seemed to me that the guys would harmoniously fit into the frame, explaining that most of the photos taken on this foggy morning were taken with a Sirui T-2204X tripod with a G20X head. I agreed and this is what we got.
By this time my sad horse had returned. Only now she is happier.
— Amateur photographer from the Urals! Stop filming the dogs! Even Apis Krasnoyarsky lays them out in his review of the Nikon 70-300 telephoto lens with the Nikon D5200 SLR camera. Let's stir up an extraordinary photo shoot ...
- I'm ready, Merry Horse. Show me how to pose for a portrait.
The filly turned out to be so creative that my extras were dumbfounded with surprise ...
This is how I got the first part of the story about a trip to Bashkiria by car from Yekaterinburg. We discussed with you the pros and cons of the Malinovka recreation center, admired the landscapes with the mountains of Bashkiria - Raspberry and Yalangas, took pictures of freaks in the fog. I also saw a fox in the taiga twice in two days.
Tomorrow we have to go on a horseback trip to the mountains. If you haven't clicked the Google+ button (see social media buttons below) or signed up for notifications of new articles on the site, now is the time to do it.
The stone river Kurum is a large stone placer, one of the amazing natural phenomena mountains of the Urals. It is a heap of huge stone blocks weighing from hundreds to thousands of kilograms each. This river was formed as a result of the destruction of the mountains. Over time, the stones gradually slid down the mountain slopes and formed a placer in the form of a stone river. The length of the river is about two hundred meters. ...

Mount Cherry
One of the attractions and mountain peaks Ural Range - Mount Cherry, 836 meters high. Mount Vishennaya is located in the Republic of Bashkortostan, 4 km south of the village of Lomovka and 7 km from the city of Beloretsk. The top of the mountain is represented by a sharp rocky peak, which has a steep slope on one side (northern), exposing the rock, and on the other (southern) - a gentler slope with vegetation. The mountain is covered...
Where to relax in Bashkiria? This summer this is my most popular question. We got a weekend tour. So that life does not seem like a raspberry, I went on another trip to my beloved republic. The decision was made very suddenly, and therefore it turned out that in that still hot period, all the hotels in interesting places The Beloretsk region is busy, but suddenly a certain Raspberry camp site was found next to the unpopular Raspberry Mountain not far from Beloretsk. The last 20 minutes of the journey go along a gravel road in a picturesque and very tasty coniferous forest, an old wooden bridge across the river, and now we are already greeted by a crimson sunset...
We immediately liked the Raspberry camp - a mysterious coniferous forest and detached houses with berry names: Cowberry, Cherry and Raspberry, in which we settled. 500 rubles a night per person, while everything is very clean, there are a couple more rooms on the same floor with us, and downstairs, like in a real village house, there is a kitchen where local hostesses prepare food for guests, and a common dining room with a fireplace.
They feed in a simple way with cereals and pies, but everything is delicious. There is always free tea, jam and cookies on the tables.
We rise to the second floor to the rooms
Modest, but very clean and bed linen is not shabby.
So cozy and cool, there were also two bathrooms with a shower and cute kittens, everything is like in a real village with relatives.
There are a lot of interesting things on the territory: playgrounds, several bathhouses, rabbits and your own horses, which constantly mysteriously ring bells around their necks, which gives this place some kind of mysticism at night, when you walk alone through the pines from the bathhouse to the house and it seems that here - Here you will participate in a movie about vampires)))
By the way, barbecue areas are free for guests and are equipped with everything you need - gazebos, stoves, a socket and even a sink for washing hands.
Full and steamed in the bath, we had a great sleep and the next morning we set off to conquer the mountain. Not Iremel (1589 meters ) of course, the height of Raspberry Mountain1152 meters above sea level. We thought that we could do it in three hours and went to look for the mountain, locals on the road they didn’t know how to go there at all, apparently they didn’t even go in their whole life))))
From wooden bridge right along the track into the forest
Our company is small, only three people - two horsemen and me :)
During the entire ascent, the road is marked with ribbons and marks of red and yellow, it is extremely difficult to get lost. Most of the way you walk almost on a flat surface, sometimes it even seemed as if we were descending rather than ascending.
We walked slowly and in a couple of hours we reached the equipped parking lot, there is also an excellent spring. Very tasty water! But this is the only way out of the spring along our path, so you can get water only once, but that's enough.
Raspberry Mountain got its name, of course, not for its color, but because a lot of raspberries grow here. By the way, at the foot of Raspberry near the river Nura, a large bard festival "Raspberry Chord" is held every year, and the series "In a stone bag" of the film "Eternal Call" was once filmed here. But, despite all this, the mountain for some reason did not become popular. If on Iremel as on Red Square and up to 1500 tourists a day, then here we met only two families on the mountain.
The ascent became difficult in the last half hour - it became quite steep uphill, not so much to climb, but it was hard to go. Some only reach this place, the forest ends here and a good view opens up. But we went all the way! The mountain has three peaks and there is no huge walking plateau, climbed a stone - take a picture and let another one go.
The view is amazing!
A bit of glamor
Full Zen!
The whole hike took us about 4.5 hours, but we were in no hurry. Professionals here arrange competitions every autumn for a high-speed climb, this time it will be September 27th, it seems. Here they probably fly up the mountain in two hours, or even less))))
Bottom line: I highly recommend the recreation center as an opportunity to go somewhere for the weekend, they also organize rafting, mountain climbing in jeeps, snowmobile tours and much more. That's just a horse trip HERE I do not advise you. As one local employee admitted: the horses are fed very little and poorly brought up by some not very experienced village guys, as a result, there were cases when the horses of people could not budge on the sleigh, and once the mare suffered so that the woman, having fallen, received concussion - helmets are of course not issued here. Therefore, everything is fine here, but it’s better not to approach the horses.
Happy travels!

The Raspberry Mountain route is a one-day mountain hiking route along the Beloretsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan to the Raspberry mountain (1152m). From the beginning of the trail to the top of the First Malinovaya about 3 km, the top of the third - another 3 km and from the top of the third to the village of Otnurok is also about 6 km. The climb is about 500-600m.
The route is quite easy to follow. No complex obstacles that require special knowledge, skills and equipment are required. Available for beginners and tourists with children.
The route can be covered in many ways: in one day to reach the first Malinovka and return back, in one day to pass all three peaks and go down to the village of Otnurok, or according to the second option, go slowly and spend the night under the third Malinovka (or under the second), and climb to the top at dawn and understand why the mountain was called Crimson (according to one of the versions).
The first part of the route passes along the southern slope of the Malidak ridge and passes along pine forest with a small number of birches and aspens. On the northern slope - where the second half of the route passes - fir and spruce forests. In the spring, Belorechane on the slopes of Malinovka collect the so-called sour - this plant is correctly called ram (highlander) alpine, of the buckwheat family.

At the beginning and at the end of the route it is necessary to ford the river. In summer and autumn it is easy and safe. In the spring, during floods, it is better to take transport or bypass along the bridge. In winter, the river freezes, around the end of November it is already possible to cross the ice.
It is worth remembering that in the area of the Malidak ridge, there are bears. There are a lot of raspberries here, and bears love them. But, if you follow strictly along the path, you will not face a bear.
But about insects, in particular mosquitoes, in summer period it is better to take care in advance, taking with you the appropriate repellent.

LEGEND AND PHOTOS OF THE ROUTE
Moving along Raspberry Street towards the mountain, you need to reach Gogol Street. On the right in the direction of travel you will see a sign with the inscription "Robin". We go down Gogol Street and reach the river. This is the Nura River. We move upstream along the river along the road. After about 2.5 km, you need to turn left to the river, along a dirt road. From there you can already see the marks on the trees.

The marked route begins. The first small obstacle is a ford across the river Nura. In summer, usually not above the knee, even for a child. But in the spring, during the flood, it is better to refrain from fording. It is better to move on some serious transport, such as UAZ, or go around the bridge (but that's a completely different story). Through Nuru - fun and fresh, be sure someone "dunks" in cool water.
A small passage in a straight line and the ascent begins. The first rest at a large anthill. It takes 15-20 minutes to walk to it. There are few meters there, no more than 1.5 km from the ford, but the steepness of the slope forces you to slow down a little.
After the rest, it is already more fun, after 10 minutes there is a small ravine on the right - there is a spring, popularly called Koroviy. Local historians say that it was there that the famous rebel Emelka Pugachev once stood up for a halt and drank some water, when crossing Ural mountains, where their fate brought them together with Salavat Yulaev, the Bashkir national hero. Maybe it's just a legend, but all Belarusians believe in it. The edges here are famous.
From the Cow spring the road goes uphill sharply. Fork in 15-20 minutes. From the beginning of the route about 2 km.
The right path goes to the foot of the first Malinovka. And the left one - further along the ridge to the peaks of the second and third.
A rocky massif up to 80 m high extending into a piercing blue sky. Not in vain, the directors chose this particular place to shoot the film "Eternal Call", it is very beautiful here, and there is a magnificent overview of all the Beloretsk environs from the highest point.
No special climbing equipment is required. You just need to carefully follow the instructions of the guide. But if suddenly you are climbers and you want to try your hand, and there are all conditions for this.
At the top you feel like a real climber! Grab your camera and get creative! The sharp peaks of the Second and Third Malinovka, Mount Kirel, the rocky remains of Yalangas, the harsh Yaman-Tau, the Crane Swamp - such photo landscapes will serve as an excellent gift for loved ones.
“Before you climb a mountain, think about whether you can go down from it,” said one of the greats. In fact, the descent does not present any particular difficulties, you just need to know the cherished paths, otherwise the insidious Goblin will take you into the thicket, and this is the worst option. After climbing the mountain, a snack on an impromptu table from stone slabs seems just magical. Needless to say, Malinovka knows how to welcome guests!
In order to continue our route and climb to the main peak, you need to go down from the first Malinovka to the fork and continue on your way further. And then we are waiting for a small traverse along scenic road. It is easy to go, because there is no rise. You can start a leisurely conversation, you can only admire the local flora in this area, the peaks are not yet visible. Forest areas are replaced by clearings, and after about 2 km there will be a large hay meadow on the right in the direction of travel. To the left of the path at the very beginning of the meadow, there is a small spring where you can get clean water. And from the clearing you can see the peaks of the second and third Malinovka.
Here, between the second and third Malinovka, the trail crosses the ridge and takes us to its northern slope. For those who want to go the route with an overnight stay, you can spend the night here. And in the evening run to the second Malinovka.
The second Malinovka is not as picturesque as the first, on which there are rocks, and is as high as the third. That's why they don't get up there very often. Basically, these are stone placers (kurumnik) and small rolling pins at the very top.
Having collected the purest water, we move on in the fontanel. A slight rise begins and more and more often it is necessary to cross stone placers. It should be remembered that the place here is tick-borne, and these insects are found here until September. So it's worth protecting yourself. Dress properly so that the ticks could not get through and you can even carry out the treatment with special means.
After about 2 km, after crossing the next stone river, the path forks. Its right part goes down to the village of Otnurok, and the left part goes up to the main peak.
The rise from the fork takes about 20-30 minutes.
The path is obvious, it is almost impossible to get off to the side or go astray. The inscription: "On the mountain" will definitely lead you to your cherished goal!
Already on the approaches to the top, beautiful views open up!
Finally we get to the circus of the third Robin. There is a small parking lot (you can place two small tents), where you can spend the night. But it should be remembered that there is no stream there and therefore you need to bring water with you.
And here is the long-awaited moment - we are at the top of Mount Raspberry. Here they are cherished 1152 m above sea level. Our gaze reveals all southern part Ural ridge. From here, from the top, you can outline the routes of your future hikes, because the entire Great South Ural Trail is visible.
Having admired the beauty enough, we go down. And we are moving towards the village of Otnurok. All the way from the top of the third Malinovka to the village of Otnurok is 6 km. You can go through it in 1-1.5 hours. Below is a ford across the Nura River. Here, in the upper reaches, the river is smaller than at the beginning of the route.
The route ends in the village of Otnurok. There is a marker on the outskirts.
The village of Otnurok was once large, there was even elementary School. Now it is practically a holiday village. There is also a tourist center "Malinovka". You can agree in advance, and a magnificent bathhouse will be ready for your arrival. This will be the logical end of the route. From the village of Otnurok to the city of Beloretsk can be reached by taxi. Only about 15 km.
This route is also unique in that it is universal. It can also be walked in the opposite direction. You can make radial exits from the city of Beloretsk to the first Malinovka and return to the city again. You can come to the village of Otnurok, stop for a tour. base and go on a radial route to Malinovka 3!
