Its beginning lies in the Green Bay, on the way you will surely meet a grotto, inside which the air temperature is 5 degrees with a plus sign.

Then the trail leads to Pirate Bay. This interesting name is due to its rich history. According to the chronicles, pirates buried their treasures here. From here you get to the Tsarskoe beach, which became famous after visiting Nicholas II. Today, the trail has collapsed in places after the last earthquake, so it has become more difficult to get to the beach.

Another attraction of the New World - fortress Asandra... Its remains can be seen today. The object appeared in the 1st century. BC e., was used as a defensive structure, which was necessary during the active struggle against pirates.

There is a fortress at an altitude of 70 meters on a cliff Guard-Oba. If you need to find your way around, then you should take the tenth kilometer on the Sudak-Alushta highway as a guide. It's easier this way, since most of the visitors prefer to move around the territory of the village and its environs by rented transport.

Today the ruins cover 0.25 hectares. The fortress was discovered in 1982 by archaeologist Baranov, who noticed that the structure had antique forms. There are four towers at the corners of the rectangle. The walls at the entrance were 3 meters thick, where the cliff was located, only 60 centimeters. The parapets were at a distance of 4-6 meters in height. There was a smithy and other necessary buildings inside.

The object was no longer actively used during the rule of Aspurg. Everything valuable was taken out in due time, only empty walls remained, which later turned into ruins. During the excavations, dishes, parts of weapons, and pottery were found. Today the fortress has become a local landmark, you can see it and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the past.

The Reef Mountains stretch from Sudak to Novyi Svet. The entire highland is divided into quaint areas, many vineyards and pink groves. In the Sudak Bay, which is bordered by Cape Alchak and the Fortress Mountain, there is the city of Sudak, which is also full of natural beauty.

For example, the mountains here are special, they have an unusual structure - they mainly consist of limestone. Even with the naked eye, the remains of fossils presented in the form of organic matter are visible. These are not only corals, but also algae, and even bryozoans. All these organisms were at a depth of no more than 50 meters, because they prefer clean and warm water.

The limestone skeleton was created by corals, it was they who pumped calcium out of the water and created it around them. Dying over many generations, rocks were formed in this place, which, for example, in the Pacific Ocean, are called reefs.

The nearby airport in Simferopol allows you to quickly get to the described place.
