Beautiful view!
The simple, but long climb to the fortress was worth it!

A beautiful place with picturesque views of nature, mountains and the sea. Climbing the mountain is not close, I recommend to stock up on water. There is also a well with water on the top, open to all comers, but you need to take a bottle of water. And you can also go up there for a picnic and spending time, there is enough space for everyone. Entrance 300₽

Although hiking is not easy even for many people who are not overweight, it is worth visiting the place! The view of the mountains, the sea and the whole of New Athos is unique! Someone advises to come up here early in the morning, due to the relative cold, but... This advice is unacceptable for those who want to take great pictures of the surrounding area. The solar haze from the sun rising in the east will make the pictures not very successful. The best photos will be taken when the Sun has already passed the zenith and will slowly tilt to the west. That's when the golden domes of the New Athos monastery will sparkle and the overall picture will be juicy and contrasting! So you don't want to, but you have to come up here in the afternoon. Or you can stay here from the morning until the afternoon. The picturesque ruins of this really ancient "Hogwarts" can be explored inside and out during this time. Fortunately, it is always possible to find a saving shadow from the walls. Get there, you won't regret it!

A very beautiful place, but going there is certainly not an easy task!
And plus the road is full of sharp stones and it's quite difficult to walk on them, but it's worth it
I didn't regret visiting this place!)

Yes, it is a very interesting place, although not for everyone, since the road is quite heavy and I advise you to do it early in the morning before the noon sun all the time! But it's worth it, the great view and the fortress itself with the chapel are very interesting!

A place of power. An impregnable fortress, at the very top there is a well with "living water", especially when you climb in the heat. Incredible beauty. If the weather is sunny, breathtaking beauty surrounds you. I recommend you to visit.

I advise everyone, the beauty is indescribable. The views of the surroundings are unforgettable from the height of the observation tower. Pilgrims are an ancient and salted place. If you visit in the summer, it is better to go early in the morning, since it is not close and not hot.

It is located on the top of a mountain, visible from the sea and driving along the highway. The old fortress, but the walls are well preserved, you can see the buildings inside, and when you climb the tower, there is an unforgettable, extraordinary view of the sea, New Athos and everything around. Going up to the fortress is not easy, especially if it is very hot, so I advise you to come in the morning or evening, before the heat. Take water with you, comfortable shoes. At the entrance, you can purchase an excursion, a guide will guide you with a group of tourists, tell you the history of this place. You can do it on your own, but it's more interesting with him. To get there, since it is a mountain, it is better to drive up by car, take a taxi, since we watched the unfortunate tourists who walked from below on their own, it is very difficult in the heat, you will get tired on the way. But I highly recommend visiting, beautiful photos and lots of positive impressions cover all the difficulties.

The view from above is excellent, the towers are monumental, there is still a part of the internal buildings, the rise is moderate, partly in the shade of trees. It is better to keep children and monitor them, there are not railings everywhere. Parking is small, it is better to arrive early in the morning.

This is the top 1 to visit in New Athos.
You need to see it with your own eyes. You can only drive up to half way. Then on foot. The climb is difficult for the unprepared. Stock up on water and patience.
But it's worth it.
Who was there and saw what was up there - memories forever.

Cannon, but it's better to follow the path.
The stairs are dangerous.
The views are excellent. The monastery is free.

I advise you to visit .
They also ask me to write something.
But there is nothing to add

Since I'm terrified of heights, I couldn't decide for two years, BUTI've overcome myself! Now I understand that there is nothing terrible there, even the elderly and children can overcome the road. Of course you will have to sweat, but a little) Amazing views open up! And the place itself is very authentic and good

It's worth a visit, a walk for lovers of great views) it will be hard for beach residents! It is not very suitable for traveling with a small child. The water from the well is amazingly delicious!!!The view from the watchtower is mesmerizing! The price is of course out of thin air) plus paid Parking, but overall not bad

Although it costs considerable effort to get there (for the unprepared), but the view from the observation deck is simply magnificent. We were in clear weather, with almost no rain, so we could see the surroundings for tens of kilometers around. But there were days when you couldn't see the tower from the seashore: it was completely hidden by clouds. An unforgettable experience, especially when you get acquainted with the history of the fortress.

The whole city is in full view! A must-visit. You need to go uphill, there is a good road and for those who want to shorten the path there are many unofficial paths along stones and tree roots) entrance to the territory is 200 rubles for adults.

Everything would be fine, and the view is beautiful and the guide tells interesting stories and nature... But damn, all the time on foot, the road is broken from the word at all. The chapel with icons requires repair, the condition is deplorable. They did not dare to drink water from the source, the microorganisms living in it were visible to the naked eye. The whole tour was like a struggle for survival. However, the view from the restored observation tower made a strong impression. It's beautiful!!! In general, everything here, as in the whole of Abkhazia, needs to be improved, put in order, but for now so...

Lovers of the history and architecture of fortresses are welcome, but the rest have nothing to do. In front of the entrance, as always, there is a ticket office and a very good ascent of 1-1.5 km (without cutting)

The views are gorgeous, there is a tower in the fortress that you can climb, but it is closed in rainy and snowy weather. The ascent from the parking lot to the top of the mountain, where the fortress itself is located, can be very tedious for some, because it takes a long time to walk uphill along a serpentine path.
