Lazarevskoe. Where to go, what to see

Lazarevskoye is the very first resort on the Black Sea where I ended up. It happened a long time ago in childhood, about 3 years ago. We went there several times and I looked forward to each trip with bated breath. Perhaps that is why I have warm feelings for this village. Otherwise, it is quite ordinary, crowded in season, with a railway near the beach. If you like to relax in quieter places, then it is better to rent housing in neighboring villages. Sights can be visited no matter where you live.

Well, if you do go to Lazarevskoye, then look at my post - with the best rating and reviews. It’s better to book everything in advance, especially during the season, otherwise you won’t find what you want on site.

Park of Culture

Lazarevsky Culture and Recreation Park was founded back in the Soviet years, in 1975. It is located in the very center of the city, next to the embankment. The park is decorated with pedestrian paths, flower beds, lawns, and green alleys. Magnolias, eucalyptus, palm trees and rhododendrons - all these southern plants provide shade on hot summer days, are pleasing to the eye and make walks in the park especially enjoyable. In addition to a variety of exotic vegetation, the park is notable for its attractions. The tallest Ferris wheel in Russia operates here, you can ride a roller coaster, play classic slot machines, visit a fun room and a shooting gallery - just like in your Soviet childhood. There is also a modern children's playground for kids here. As in all entertainment places, there are many cafes, snack bars and stalls with all sorts of goodies. In general, a standard set of pleasures, especially typical for a southern resort town.

Ferris wheel

The Ferris wheel in the Lazarevsky Culture and Recreation Park began operating in 2012. At the moment, this is the largest Ferris wheel in Russia, its diameter is more than 80 meters. The wheel makes a full revolution in 8 minutes. From its highest point there is a wonderful view of the coast of the Krasnodar Territory, all the way to Abkhazia. The wheel has closed and open cabins for six and four people, respectively. It is better not to put children in open cabins, as they are swayed by the wind and it is scary to sit there. In the evening you can hardly see anything from the wheel, so riding after dark is not very interesting. Binoculars can be rented before boarding for an additional fee. The service, however, both throughout the park and specifically on the Ferris wheel is not yet the most “European” in quality.

Ticket price: from 200 rubles

Waterpark "Nautilus

The water park is located near the Lazarevsky Culture and Leisure Park, on the banks of the Psezuapse River. Nautilus is a fairly old water park (it opened in 2004) and looks shabby. The rides are not as exciting as, for example, in the Golden Bay; you can feel the joints on the slides, and the area is small. But still, in the heat, this is a good place for a family vacation. True, as elsewhere, during the season there can be queues and it can be difficult to find a free sun lounger with an umbrella, a life jacket or an inflatable ring. The water park has 4 pools: a swimming pool, with slides, a children's pool, and a pool with a Tsunami attraction, which is 14 meters high - quite extreme entertainment. There are no wave pools in Nautilus, but the children's area is good. If you don’t compare Nautilus to anything else, you may well like its slides and pools. There is also a cafe on the territory of the water park where you can buy corn, ice cream, and hot dogs. True, prices in the cafe and for other services inside the water park are not the most attractive.

Ticket price: 800 rubles

Waterpark Starfish

The water park is located near the seashore, as part of the large entertainment complex "Dolphin". Next to it are also the Tropical Amazon Oceanarium with a penguinarium and exoterrarium, the Starfish Dolphinarium and a children's amusement park with attractions. The water park area is small, there are few slides and you can feel the seams on them. For children there is a heated swimming pool and water attractions. Extreme ones include closed “Pigtails” intertwined with each other, as well as “Spaceball” and “Kamikaze”. In addition to water activities, the water park hosts daily shows. True, the service leaves much to be desired, during the season the water park is very crowded, there are queues and those who have been to other water parks will not be particularly interested in the attractions here.

Ticket price: 1000 rubles

Oceanarium Tropical Amazon

The Tropical Amazon Oceanarium is located in the Dolphin entertainment complex. The oceanarium and exoterrarium occupy two floors. On the first floor, in a cool, darkened room, there are large aquariums with different fish, from freshwater inhabitants of the Amazon, small sharks and piranhas, to tropical marine fish and corals. The area of ​​the hall is not very large, but it will be interesting for children to see the fish. On the second floor, visitors find themselves in a tropical jungle. Here you can see boa constrictors, monitor lizards, caimans, toads and turtles. In addition to open aquariums with reptiles and amphibians, waterfalls and tropical plants, here you can see a toucan, monkeys and even, suddenly, penguins. They sit in one small enclosure. There is a fee for photography, 100 rubles; you cannot take photographs with a flash, so as not to scare the animals.

Ticket price: 500 rubles

Dolphinarium Starfish

The Dolphinarium is located in the large entertainment complex "Dolphin". The performance at the dolphinarium lasts 50 minutes and features two white whales, three dolphins, a sea lion and a walrus. True, the animals do not always perform in full force and not in all cases they succeed in performing tricks the first time. After the performance, visitors can buy souvenirs and DVDs with a film about the dolphinarium, take pictures with dolphins or swim. At extra charge. Swimming with dolphins immediately after the show costs 2,000 rubles, 4 laps of the pool. According to reviews, this is not the most spectacular show and not the best dolphinarium in the Krasnodar region. Children may find it interesting, but adults will find it boring.

Ticket price: from 600 to 800 rubles, depending on the row.

What to see in the area

The name of the gorge is associated with the legend of the Adyghe Mamed, who saved his native village from Turkish robbers by sacrificing his life. The route along the gorge starts from the Yantar boarding house, followed by a dirt road that leads to the Kuren restaurant. Then for about half an hour the route goes along the river, in the shade of beeches, chestnuts and lindens. The road goes to the right of the river, and a path along the stones of the Kuapse riverbed leads to the Cosmos camp site and Orekhovaya Polyana. Further, a narrow corridor between the rocks leads first to a grotto with sinter formations and bizarre rocks, and then to the stone gate of the gorge, where converging stone walls form an arch. Behind the gate is the so-called “White Hall” made of limestone. A stream of the Mamed's Beard waterfall flows along one of the walls of the hall. Further along the route you can see a small natural reservoir called Mameda Bath. Three more waterfalls in the gorge are called Happiness, Youth and Love. They are a little more than 10 meters high.

In addition to the above, in the gorge you can see a stone blockage where the “Mamed’s Head” waterfall and a dolmen are located. The length of the route through the gorge is 7 kilometers.

Volkonsky dolmen

You can find quite a lot of dolmens on the Black Sea coast, but they are of varying degrees of preservation and accessibility. The Volkonsky dolmen is different from the rest. This is the only fully preserved full-size monolithic dolmen in the world. His chamber is carved from solid stone. The dolmen is located in the river valley, near the village of Volkonka, not far from the Novorossiysk - Sochi highway. Next to the dolmen on the slope of the gorge there is a spring with hydrogen sulfide water, and a little upstream of the stream there are the “Two Brothers” rocks. The dolmen inside is semicircular, with a strong echo. It’s better to come to him early, because... By noon, groups of tourists arrive. Of course, the place is covered in legends.

Waterfalls of the village of Nadzhigo

The area in the area of ​​the Nadzhigo village is interesting for the waterfalls of the Kumyshtepe and Gumyshtepe rivers, exploring which you can take a route that is not very difficult, but long - about 12 kilometers. From the Sochi highway, you first need to get to the village of Nadzhigo, then climb up the mountain along a dirt road, about two kilometers away there will be a cafe that is open only in the summer season. If you go down to the confluence of the Gumyshtepe and Kumyshtepe rivers, to the right, on the Kumyshtepe river there will be a huge 32-meter waterfall.

The water in it falls onto a rocky ledge covered with moss. A powerful jet of water breaks against the stone, forming a cloud of spray around. If you return to the cafe, ride over the waterfall on Kumeshtepe and go further up, you can see many smaller waterfalls, 5-8 meters high. The clean and clear water of the mountain river fills small natural depressions. Light limestone makes the water azure. Multi-layered rocks, sometimes overgrown with moss or covered with ivy, stick out of the ground at an angle or rise vertically. The sun breaks through the tall trees, there are many fallen trunks all around. The nature here is very beautiful, there are few people, especially in early spring and late autumn. This place is just perfect for a contemplative walk.

Aul Thagapsh

The upper reaches of the Thagapsh River and the surrounding area of ​​the village of the same name are part of the Sochi National Park. The place is not very touristy, but it is quiet and has a certain charm of nature not trampled by mass tourism. From the center of Lazarevskoye to the village of Thagapsh it is only 16 kilometers. The road is narrow, it goes through the mountains, but the views from it are very picturesque: a narrow riverbed and a river valley below, framed by green low hills. The village of Thagapsh is small and quiet, notable only for its trout farming. The 800-meter-long path to the waterfalls requires closed shoes and a bit of sports training, as in some places you need to climb moss-covered boulders using homemade ladders and climb very rough terrain.
