Берег Волги
Beach
Open Details
The Volga River is the fundamental waterway in European Russia. And, of course, we could not deny ourselves the pleasure of staying near the banks of this mighty river near the village of the same name. The coastline here is rocky and earthy, there is a small grove about twenty meters from the shore, where we also came for a walk.

The next stop for us will be the Derzha River coast, which is one of the Volga's tributaries. The area is incredibly picturesque, there are coniferous and deciduous trees, and along the river there is a chain of small mountains and rocks. It is a perfect place for lovers of walks in the unexplored area.

Яузское водохранилище
Lake
Open Details
Very close to the small village of Kotikovo is one of the sleeves of the Yauza Reservoir. Exactly in the place where we stopped, there are several descents into the water, several small marinas for diving. It also makes sense to go for a walk in the coastal thicket.

Open Details
Our next stop will be the small working village of Uvarovka, where we will take a walk to the local dam. The area here is very quiet and small, the landscape is very much like the best paintings of the great Russian artist Vasily Polenov. Along the banks of the river here grow rare, and closer to the horizon already begins a thicket.

Already in the evening we arrived in Mozhaisk and went for dinner to one of the central cafes of the city called "Golden Fleece".

For today our walks in the countryside are over, we go to the hotel to rest. Many kilometers we managed to drive, we saw a lot of natural beauties and, of course, we are noticeably tired. Tomorrow we will return to Moscow, but not by a direct route, but through several beautiful places.
