Ushchel'ye

Not far from the city and from the highway there is this picturesque place where you can wander through the mountains, find solitude with nature on the banks of the Urals. But above all, the Gorge will be interesting for lovers of historical tourism. If you move from Orsk along the railway to Novotroitsk, you can completely repeat the path of Filipp Podzorov’s detachment when he was ambushed in the narrowest part of the Gorge. With the fight he managed to break through to Max, where he died. And also, in this antiquated bend of the Urals in ancient times, robbers often hid, who robbed caravans and abducted people for sale into slavery, in Bukhara and Khiva.
