Hello! We rested in new Athos for a couple of weeks, and this Tower shone from the beach and the embankment in the evenings, it was very beautiful and of course you have to visit it. From the outside, she is not far away but!! This is a pure point of view! As a result, we decided to climb as close as possible by car and did not regret a single gram. Next to the road to the observation deck there is a small parking lot where you can park. Upon arrival, there is not a large stall where you will be charged for parking and for passage to the observation deck, 200 rubles for parking and 300 for passage. After paying for the passage, here it is, the road minus 500 calories! Heart rate increases! And increase muscle tone! The road goes in a serpentine uphill, the distance can be from 1 km more or less. There is a sharp road to the top at the entrance to the left side of the mountain, it is much shorter but more dangerous and more difficult. It's better for everyone to go down it than to go up. Having climbed the tower, I do not want to leave the word at all! The beauty that the eyes greedily eat and cannot get enough of, on the one hand the mountains, on the other the sea. It's sooo beautiful in good weather. We sat there for at least 40 minutes, rested and watched. They called by video link, showed their relatives and did not regret that they went up there. It's beautiful there. There will be an opportunity to come up for sure!!

A very steep place of power, the road was difficult up the cliffs, but there is a path and take water with you.And there is a well waiting for you upstairs, you can get water there.But the view is magnificent, and the height is breathtaking. Very cool emotions, be sure to visit! You will not regret it
, the entrance is paid and parking is also available. The 8-year-old son was delighted when he crossed the road himself and saw such beauty from a height!

It takes my heart away. The greatness of nature. The sea is endless. Gorgeous views for photos. It's hard to get up, especially with children. You can put up more benches for recreation. They collect a lot of money every day.

The observation deck is located at an altitude of 350m above sea level. The views are amazing! Despite the difficulty of lifting a lot of people. They even take guided tours

A gorgeous place, with a magnificent view. The way there is certainly energy-consuming, but it's worth it. As you climb, more and more new views open up and of course the top one is the view from the tower. In addition, there is a small temple on the top and a unique source of mountain water.

Very beautiful places. True, it's a long way to climb on foot, but this is an excursion, you need to be ready for this. Take some water with you there. It's definitely worth a visit, the view is gorgeous, you need to take pictures!

For those who like to look at the splendor around you from a bird's eye view. It's safer to follow the path. From the top of the tower, the most dizzying view.

It's a little difficult to climb the hill, but it's worth it. Stunning 360 degree panoramic view. There is an opportunity to climb the steep stairs to the observation deck. There is an old church and a spring with water on the territory. You can take water with you, the only thing you need to take your container with you.

Entrance is paid. It takes about 30 minutes to walk up. If you take pictures, it takes longer. We were at sunset, it was beautiful. It should be borne in mind that the road is very bad and you need to go down before sunset, otherwise there is a chance to break your legs. They drank water from the well, they didn't get poisoned. They climbed the tower. There aren't many people. Like it. The views are impressive.

1000 times-yes!!! Go ahead, the views are amazing. There are stumps and benches-homemade, for those who puff when climbing. We need very comfortable shoes, the road is not smooth.

In winter, it is quiet and peaceful here, there are no crowds, everything is very beautiful and it is clear that people work there and do a lot for good service. Bring food for local cats and dog beggars, but you don't need to carry water with you - there will be a gorgeous ancient well with very tasty water upstairs!

Climbing to the top, you will have a beautiful view of New Athos. The climb is a bit difficult for an untrained person, but it's worth it. I advise everyone to visit.

Stunning views of the whole of Abkhazia. It's a long walk, so the shoes should be comfortable. Parking is tiny, it's better to go on a weekday. There are no cafes near the site, but there is a condensation well.

The beautiful location of this site and the fortress. At the height, you will be greeted by an employee of a small church and an amazing spring with drinking water. There are enough viewing platforms, each of them offers its own view: the city, the sea, the villages, and of course the Caucasian Ridge. There are benches and trash cans on the ascent and descent.
I recommend climbing slowly in summer, take enough water with you. Don't throw garbage! Take care of nature.

It's very beautiful here. Especially if you climb to the very top of the tower. And the road here is not easy. Constantly uphill, over rough terrain))) But it's worth it, 100%.

I advise you to visit. The views are unforgettable, the altar is soothing, an inexhaustible source of strength. A bonus, as for all those who have reached the top, is an observation deck from the tower.

It's a beautiful place, very. Like the whole of Abkhazia. Gorgeous views from the observation deck. The climb is certainly difficult, but there are places where you can stop, sit down and take a breath. At the very top at the foot of the tower there is a well in which you can drink cold water.

Honestly, I thought I'd die climbing up)))) and this despite the fact that I drove the car to the maximum to the checkpoint. But the views of Mount Athos were worth it! A very beautiful location - worth a visit!

There is a chapel in the fortress, or as they say a place of power, it is destroyed, only the core remains intact in it. There are icons there, you can put a candle there. Also, near the chapel there is an inexhaustible well with crystal clear water on a high mountain in the mountain, no one has been able to explain this phenomenon. The view from the observation deck is simply bombastic.

Just a gorgeous place with incredible views and energy, an ancient Orthodox church, an inexhaustible well. The only thing that is a little difficult is to climb up to all these beauties, but only a little.

If you want to look at Abkhazia from above, it is definitely worth overcoming the path that awaits you when climbing the fortress and the peak itself. There is a well with drinking water and a menacing man who scolds if they pour water next to the well. There are residual walls of some church, temple, I don't know, without a roof, but here you can see a whole collection of different images and put a candle. The view is gorgeous, especially in sunny weather. I do not recommend it with children under 7 years old, you will carry it on yourself.

The tower has already been remodeled(most , if not all, has been restored) down in the building, where part of the tower stands on metal supports, will soon collapse.The road to the tower is certainly a test, not for everyone! Many walked directly on the mountain and fell, as on the serpentine trail for three times longer.

I climbed the Anakopian fortress twice. The second time with an elderly mother, she really wanted to get there. The road is certainly not easy, but if you take your time, you can walk without problems. The views from above are worth a walk there.

Fire is a place, if you want to train yourself and see all the beauty from a bird's eye view, then you are here. It is better to start your journey on Mount Athos from here, everything else will simply not be worth it, and it takes a lot of time to climb and descend. Peace and Goodness to all!

themselves are being destroyed more and more

It's hard to climb up on foot, but the view from the top is worth it.
It is very similar to Spain with vegetation, views and climbing uphill to churches and fortresses. All lovers of all of the above will be fine.
There is a well with spring water at the top, where you can get water and quench your thirst.🙌
