Translated from ancient Turkic, “psebay” means “place rich in water.” The surrounding area is replete with various manifestations of karst processes - caves, grottoes, arches, rocky cliffs. And in the south, the Rocky Ridge ends with sheer cliffs sometimes several hundred meters high. These rocks were named: "Shakhan", Amet-rock, Church rock, Gerpegem ridge, etc. In the deep beds of streams originating from the rocky bastions of the Rocky Range, unique monuments nature. Thus, in Gunkina Balka there are several caves, the total length of which reaches several kilometers. To the west, on the other side of the Malaya Laba, there is the Dedova Yama cave, a suddenly appeared hole in the old road, according to legend, the arch of the underground cavity collapsed at the moment when the grandfather was riding on the road above it in a cart.

Both hiking in the surrounding area of the village and extreme excursions are popular here. mountain routes. Twelve months a year Psebay receives tourists.

There are no equipped places for walking in the Psebay area, only lightly trampled paths that are lost in the grass and then appear again. Only marks on the trees mean hiking trails. Real wild nature, with its unpredictability and mystery.

In addition to the traditional walking tourism for these places, cycling tourism is developed here. The village of Psebay is a center for the development of mountain biking in the Krasnodar Territory and the Southern Federal District. Since 2011, the village of Psebay has hosted a stage of the Russian Mountain Biking Cup in the cross-country race and one of the rounds of the Russian Championship in the uphill race.

Fast mountain river simply created for rafting. And some will definitely like rocks and caves for rock climbing. Near the village of Psebay there is a ski slope.

Psebai is Starting point for many tourist routes. Hiking and horseback riding are popular here; there is a seven-day tourist route Psebay - Krasnaya Polyana, which passes through snowy passes along the banks of the Malaya Laba River and ends in Krasnaya Polyana. The administration of the Eastern Cordon of the only Caucasian Biosphere Reserve in Kuban is located in Psebay. Here you will receive permission and a pass for the hike.

And to the south and higher is the village of Nikitino, from which many beautiful routes begin.

The story of Psebay. The village of Psebaysky was founded in 1857 on the banks of the Psebayka River. By 1862, Cossack families from the village of Novopokrovskaya arrived to settle in Psebaysky. The soldiers who fought on the New Line of Fortifications were allowed to bring their families from the central provinces. The first houses have not survived, except for the Holy Transfiguration Church, built in 1858. Initially the village was small: 34-35 huts. There was only one street and it was called Boulevard. It stretched from church to school.
In 1873, the village was transformed into a Cossack village. In 1894, Emperor Nicholas II issued a decree according to which soldiers who served for more than 17 years were rewarded with an allotment of land of 3 dessiatines per capita. By this time, the village had grown, and there was a need to build new streets. As a result, the village was divided into two parts: Cossacks lived in one, soldiers (non-residents) lived in the other. The separation of Cossacks and soldiers occurred in 1890. In the same year, the Cossacks, who did not want to visit common church, the Church of St. Michael (now destroyed) was built.
In the 19th century, Psebay was a place of princely hunting. In 1862, the right to use the land was acquired by Grand Duke Sergei Mikhailovich Romanov, cousin of Nicholas II. He ordered the construction of a hunting lodge and outbuildings for servants and keeping dogs in Psebay. He came to the village 2-3 times a year to hunt on a huge plot of mountains he rented. Now the hunting lodge of Prince Romanov is included in the regional register of monuments of cultural and historical heritage. With Romanov’s blessing, two schools arose in the village: one for nonresidents, the other for Cossacks.
No later than 1938, the village was transformed into the village of Psebay. The status of a working village has been since 1958, when the village of Psebay was merged into one locality with the villages of Zheleznodorozhny and Gipsovy Rudnik. In 1944-1962, Psebay was the center of the Psebay region.

Almost ten days have passed since I returned from my next trip, but I still couldn’t start the article. The place is so fascinating, winter, mountains, waterfalls... We didn’t see much, we just didn’t have much time, there’s so much left there... And I want to go there again!

Wonderful pristine nature, untrodden paths, clean transparent air, breathtaking springs with such tasty water that the first day at home I could not drink our tap water.

And it all started with the fact that my friend and I wanted to meet New Year on the train, on the way to Siberia. To the sound of wheels, four days on the road! Romance! But it didn’t work out. And we decided to stay home with the children to welcome 2017.

We started thinking about Christmas. Well, how can we not go anywhere during the holidays, it’s impossible, unrealistic... and we found a tour to Psebay. At the Voskhod camp site in the folk Kuban style with songs and dances, round dances around the fire, we spent 3 holidays. After all, ours is rich in Amazing places. Unforgettable vacation, a lot of impressions. But first things first.

In the very east of the Krasnodar Territory, between two ridges and along the Malaya Laba River, a hospitable village stretches for several kilometers. Then there are a couple more villages and that’s it, there is no more road. And only with backpacks do they conquer mountain peaks.

And even though we came to relax at the camp site, Psebay is still more suitable for active recreation. If you love hiking, are into cycling, hang gliding, or dream of rafting down a mountain river, then this is the place for you. You will find all this here.

Amazing hikes can be done here. Somewhere far away... or rather a couple of tens of kilometers from Psebay - Bolshoy Tkhach, and the Devil's Gate, Acheshbok and the Alous ridge. But all this was not part of the plans for this trip; it is part of my future plans.

Psebay translated means “a place with a lot of water.” There are so many waterfalls, rivers, springs, and lakes here that you can’t count them.

We walked to the Malaya Laba River.

Now she is relatively calm. And in the spring, when the glaciers begin to melt, it turns into a stormy, roaring stream.

In winter, the landscapes are no less beautiful, and not far from this place there is a silver spring; people from all over the area go there for water.

We also visited the Waterfall of Wishes.

In winter, the path there is not the easiest; we had to overcome climbs and a very steep wet slope. But at the end of the road a real miracle awaited us. Everyone made their wish cherished wish. They say it comes true. Let's see!

You can look at Psebay and its surroundings from above at observation deck, where the guide took us. Beauty! True, there has been no fresh snow for a long time and the colors are not very bright, but this does not spoil the overall impression.

Those who wished could ride down the hill on tablets. Steep slide, the speed is developing oh-oh-oh. But people come there specifically to ride, in cars, and spend several hours there.

Almost all the attractions of Psebay are far away, and you need to go by car. But the Gerpegem ridge is very close, it can be seen from everywhere. All tourist centers offer excursions there. But they didn’t offer it to us, and I decided to go there myself.

I won’t be me if I don’t conquer at least one. There's a gentle slope there. There are almost no trees at the edge of the ridge. The road didn’t seem to be difficult, it seemed like it wasn’t far, why couldn’t I handle it? And I climbed the mountain! And it was already after lunch, and the daylight hours were short….

And I didn’t even think about the fact that it was winter outside. The weather was excellent, the temperature was above zero, the snow was melting. And so I rise, and the higher, the more difficult it is. Walking through the snow in boots, not even sneakers, my feet got soaked through. No. I'm going higher. And there it got steeper and steeper, I slipped, fell, and a couple of times my camera sank into the snow. I thought I had ruined everything. No, I shook off nothing, it works.

And then I found a horse trail. Wow, I think horses can rise to this height, but I’m worse. Well, follow the horse path. Horses choose the easiest road. Nooooo, straight ahead faster. Yeah! Why!

Somehow I got back onto the path and then I realized that I’m not always the most shortcut happens to be the closest, especially in the mountains.

And then the sun began to set. I didn't have time to reach the top. There are only 200 meters left.

And the view from here is stunning!

I didn’t want to walk back through the dark alone in an unfamiliar area. And I hurried to go back.

In the morning we saw footprints in the snow - some were of a hare, and others... I don’t even know what kind of animal it was, but the claws were 4 centimeters long. And so, going down, for some reason I kept thinking about these footprints. And although I’m not such a coward, and I walk alone through forests and mountains, but... it was getting dark slowly, and all the time it seemed to me that someone from the forest was looking at me. I walk and look around, no one. It’s a long way from the village, even though it’s down below me, no one will hear it, no matter how much you scream…. Mom dear. She ran downstairs skipping. And I forever understood that you can’t go to the mountains alone in winter, even if it seems that it’s not high and not far away.

The peak remains unconquered, which means it is waiting for me, and I will return here again.

Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer places left where the paths are untrodden, the animals are not scared, and the water is crystal clear. Psebay is just such a place. They even have spring water flowing from their taps. Until you meet crowds of tourists there, as in Sochi or Sochi, there are no huge 5-star hotels, and, thank God, civilization has not yet reached here and you can plunge into pristine nature entirely, with all my soul and all my body.

The climate here is unique, there is almost no wind, it is not hot in summer, but winter is real! True, until mid-summer there is a lot of rain and even hail. Our guide told us that it is better to come from the second half of July. Then there are many sunny days and you can visit all the local attractions.

There will be a separate article about our camp site “Voskhod”. (Already have read I really liked their organization of recreation, the territory, the rooms, the SPA complex with a sauna, steam room, jacuzzi and herbal tea... Mmmmm, what a great time we had!

See how we drove on the map.

A quiet haven for the spoiled tourist

Very unusual place for relaxation we chose May holidays— Psebay village. I wanted to relax on a budget in the Krasnodar Territory... We heard from friends and relatives that there are hot springs in the Krasnodar Territory in the Mostovsky district, so we looked at the location on the map. It turned out that nearby in the Mostovsky district there is the village of Psebay, where it is located. Unfortunately, we could not find websites of other places where we could stay on the Internet.

Psebay is an urban-type settlement in the Mostovsky district of the Krasnodar region of Russia.

How to get to Psebay

We drove by car from Rostov-on-Don along the M4 Don highway, then along the P-217 Tikhoretsk - Kropotkin - Armavir - Labinsk - Mostovskoy - Psebay road. The entire journey took approximately 5.5 hours.

The village of Psebay is very small in size and population (about 10 thousand people in 2010). Psebay is located in a valley in the foothills of the Caucasus, between mountain peaks along the Malaya Laba River. The road from Psebay to the south ends in the mountains of the Caucasus Natural Biosphere Reserve.

Caucasian Nature Reserve included in the list World Heritage UNESCO.

In the village of Psebay there is a gypsum production plant - “Kubansky Gypsum - KNAUF”. We ourselves personally climbed to the tops of the mountains and saw how the equipment works. This is probably the only place in a village that provides work local population. It’s a pity that the Knauf brand is not Russian. As our guide in the USSR said, it was a completely Soviet plant, and after the collapse the Germans came, bought it, and took it into circulation. Well, what can you do?

The unusual geographical location makes this place amazing. A fast mountain river, gypsum rocks of the slopes, caves and arches, waterfalls, springs with pure drinking water, golden sand made of mica and shell rock, unusually rich vegetation - all this is amazingly intertwined here, in one place. For those who like active recreation, I definitely recommend visiting here, because... There are a lot of places where you can go.

Psebay village area in plan Russian tourism very promising and diverse. I would even say unusual, with its amazing beauty, purity, simplicity. There are no equipped places for walking, only slightly trampled paths that are lost in the grass and then appear again. Markings on trees indicating hiking trails, and nothing more... Real wild nature, with its unpredictability and mystery.

In addition to the traditional walking tourism for these places, cycling tourism is developed here. There are active cycling routes on the Gerpegem ridge; by the way, they also race ATVs there. A fast mountain river is simply created for. And some will definitely like rocks and caves for rock climbing.

Excursions, routes in Psebay, waterfalls

We rested in Psebay for 6 days. But since the weather was not always favorable, we visited only a small part of the protected nearby places. Wet weather, washed-out roads, slippery hiking trails, and, perhaps, our unpreparedness for extreme tourist hikes, did not allow us to go down to the Gunkin caves and the Dedova Yama cave, as well as see the Kyzylbek waterfalls and salt water mineral springs in the village of Solenoe. But what a reason to come back here again.

Kapustinsky waterfall;
Nikiteno village and Nikitinsky waterfall;
Thermal springs of the Mostovsky district;
Suspension bridge;
White Widow Rock;

Waterfall "Wishes";
Gerpegem Ridge;
Silver Spring;
Bank of the Malaya Laba River.

Some of the routes were on foot. Together with a guide (a kind, nice uncle), we walked around all the surroundings of the Beryozki sanatorium. We were introduced to the local landscapes and nature. We visited many places on our own, despite the fact that they were not so easy to find.

Experienced tourists will be interested in 5-7 days hiking By famous route"Psebay - Krasnaya Polyana". But this is a very serious journey and they won’t let you go there just like that. To obtain a permit and pass for a hike, go to the office of the Northern Department of the Caucasian Nature Reserve in Psebay or to the border post. The documents will be completed here.

Flora Psebaya

Walking through the meadows and forests in the villages of Psebay and Nikitino, you can see many beautiful and unusual plants. And the time at which we came to rest in Psebay (early May) showed us the flowering of many plants. Small mountain iris, lilies of the valley, strawberries, sage, mint, wild garlic and many more unknown but beautiful plants that form a blooming and fragrant carpet on the ground.

For the first time in my life I saw a mountain iris bloom. The lily of the valley is listed in the Red Book of Russia, but in Psebay the lily of the valley is not uncommon.

What to bring from Psebay as a souvenir

In addition to all the standard souvenirs: magnets and paintings, in Psebay you can buy meadow honey, mountain tea, souvenirs and jewelry made from rocks. We also brought water from the Silver Spring, a piece of gypsum rock, and fern bushes. You can dry a herbarium of meadow herbs as a souvenir. I couldn’t resist this uncontrollable greenery of the Psebai forests; I wanted to remember with all my heart and keep this beauty at home.

Psebay is an amazing place for a Russian tourist to relax. A relaxing holiday with your family, away from civilization, or a holiday with a noisy group. Measured walks around the village or extreme mountain routes. And everyone here will find something dear to their heart.

All this is Psebai, all this is Russia!

Excerpt characterizing Psebai

Torn blue-purple clouds, turning red at sunrise, were quickly driven by the wind. It became lighter and lighter. The curly grass that always grows along country roads, still wet from yesterday’s rain, was clearly visible; The hanging branches of the birches, also wet, swayed in the wind and dropped light drops to their sides. The faces of the soldiers became clearer and clearer. Rostov rode with Ilyin, who did not lag behind him, on the side of the road, between a double row of birch trees.
During the campaign, Rostov took the liberty of riding not on a front-line horse, but on a Cossack horse. Both an expert and a hunter, he recently got himself a dashing Don, a large and kind game horse, on which no one had jumped him. Riding this horse was a pleasure for Rostov. He thought about the horse, about the morning, about the doctor, and never thought about the upcoming danger.
Before, Rostov, going into business, was afraid; Now he did not feel the slightest sense of fear. It was not because he was not afraid that he was accustomed to fire (you cannot get used to danger), but because he had learned to control his soul in the face of danger. He was accustomed, when going into business, to think about everything, except for what seemed to be more interesting than anything else - about the upcoming danger. No matter how hard he tried or reproached himself for cowardice during the first period of his service, he could not achieve this; but over the years it has now become natural. He now rode next to Ilyin between the birches, occasionally tearing leaves from branches that came to hand, sometimes touching the horse’s groin with his foot, sometimes, without turning around, giving his finished pipe to the hussar riding behind, with such a calm and carefree look, as if he was riding ride. He felt sorry to look at Ilyin’s agitated face, who spoke a lot and restlessly; he knew from experience the painful state of waiting for fear and death in which the cornet was, and knew that nothing except time would help him.
The sun had just appeared on a clear streak from under the clouds when the wind died down, as if it did not dare spoil this lovely summer morning after the thunderstorm; the drops were still falling, but vertically, and everything became quiet. The sun came out completely, appeared on the horizon and disappeared into a narrow and long cloud standing above it. A few minutes later the sun appeared even brighter on the upper edge of the cloud, breaking its edges. Everything lit up and sparkled. And along with this light, as if answering it, gun shots were heard ahead.
Before Rostov had time to think about and determine how far these shots were, the adjutant of Count Osterman Tolstoy galloped up from Vitebsk with orders to trot along the road.
The squadron drove around the infantry and battery, who were also in a hurry to go faster, went down the mountain and, passing through some empty village without inhabitants, climbed the mountain again. The horses began to lather, the people became flushed.
- Stop, be equal! – the division commander’s command was heard ahead.
- Left shoulder forward, step march! - they commanded from the front.
And the hussars along the line of troops went to the left flank of the position and stood behind our lancers who were in the first line. On the right stood our infantry in a thick column - these were reserves; above it on the mountain, our guns were visible in the clean, clear air, in the morning, oblique and bright light, right on the horizon. Ahead, behind the ravine, enemy columns and cannons were visible. In the ravine we could hear our chain, already engaged and cheerfully clicking with the enemy.
Rostov, as if hearing the sounds of the most cheerful music, felt joy in his soul from these sounds, which had not been heard for a long time. Tap ta ta tap! – suddenly, then several shots clapped quickly, one after another. Again everything fell silent, and again it was as if firecrackers were cracking as someone walked on them.
The hussars stood in one place for about an hour. The cannonade began. Count Osterman and his retinue rode behind the squadron, stopped, talked with the regiment commander and rode off to the guns on the mountain.
Following Osterman’s departure, the lancers heard a command:
- Form a column, line up for the attack! “The infantry ahead of them doubled their platoons to let the cavalry through. The lancers set off, their pike weather vanes swaying, and at a trot they went downhill towards the French cavalry, which appeared under the mountain to the left.
As soon as the lancers went down the mountain, the hussars were ordered to move up the mountain, to cover the battery. While the hussars were taking the place of the lancers, distant, missing bullets flew from the chain, squealing and whistling.
This sound, not heard for a long time, had an even more joyful and exciting effect on Rostov than the previous sounds of shooting. He, straightening up, looked at the battlefield opening from the mountain, and with all his soul participated in the movement of the lancers. The lancers came close to the French dragoons, something was tangled there in the smoke, and five minutes later the lancers rushed back not to the place where they stood, but to the left. Between the orange lancers on red horses and behind them, in a large heap, were visible blue French dragoons on gray horses.

Rostov, with his keen hunting eye, was one of the first to see these blue French dragoons pursuing our lancers. Closer and closer the lancers and the French dragoons pursuing them moved in frustrated crowds. One could already see how these people, who seemed small under the mountain, collided, overtook each other and waved their arms or sabers.
Rostov looked at what was happening in front of him as if he were being persecuted. He instinctively felt that if he now attacked the French dragoons with the hussars, they would not resist; but if you hit, you had to do it now, this minute, otherwise it will be too late. He looked around him. The captain, standing next to him, did not take his eyes off the cavalry below in the same way.
“Andrei Sevastyanich,” said Rostov, “we will doubt them...
“It would be a dashing thing,” said the captain, “but in fact...
Rostov, without listening to him, pushed his horse, galloped ahead of the squadron, and before he had time to command the movement, the entire squadron, experiencing the same thing as him, set off after him. Rostov himself did not know how and why he did it. He did all this, as he did on the hunt, without thinking, without thinking. He saw that the dragoons were close, that they were galloping, upset; he knew that they could not stand it, he knew that there was only one minute that would not return if he missed it. The bullets screeched and whistled around him so excitedly, the horse begged forward so eagerly that he could not stand it. He touched his horse, gave the command, and at the same moment, hearing behind him the sound of the stomping of his deployed squadron, at full trot, he began to descend towards the dragoons down the mountain. As soon as they went downhill, their trot gait involuntarily turned into a gallop, which became faster and faster as they approached their lancers and the French dragoons galloping behind them. The dragoons were close. The front ones, seeing the hussars, began to turn back, the rear ones stopped. With the feeling with which he rushed across the wolf, Rostov, releasing his bottom at full speed, galloped across the frustrated ranks of the French dragoons. One lancer stopped, one foot fell to the ground so as not to be crushed, one riderless horse got mixed up with the hussars. Almost all the French dragoons galloped back. Rostov, having chosen one of them on a gray horse, set off after him. On the way he ran into a bush; a good horse carried him over, and, barely able to cope in the saddle, Nikolai saw that in a few moments he would catch up with the enemy whom he had chosen as his target. This Frenchman was probably an officer - judging by his uniform, he was bent over and galloping on his gray horse, urging it on with a saber. A moment later, Rostov’s horse hit the rear of the officer’s horse with its chest, almost knocking it down, and at the same moment Rostov, without knowing why, raised his saber and hit the Frenchman with it.

The village of Psebay is becoming more and more popular every year among tourists who prefer the so-called “Wild Holidays”. Mostly people strive to get to these regions to fully enjoy the beauty of the surrounding nature. Moreover, there are quite a lot of places here that deserve attention.

A little history

The village was created back in 1857, but it became truly populated in 1862. During these years, families of Cossacks and soldiers began to come here. Psebai developed quite slowly. Rapid development began in 1888, when Nicholas II’s cousin, Sergei Romanov, moved here. He leased a huge amount of land. He ordered the building of a church and a hunting lodge. They have survived to this day, are considered historical monuments and are among the sights of the village.

In Soviet times, the route (on foot) to Krasnaya Polyana, through the Caucasus Nature Reserve, began here. Over time, it was abandoned and only in the year 2000 it was not only resumed, but also new routes were planned. These places are especially popular among tourists who are interested in hang gliding, rafting, jeeping, and so on.

Caves around Psebay

In the area around the village of Psebay there are a lot of mountains, and therefore caves. Many of them have become part of tourist routes. Gunkin caves are the most impressive in these parts. They are located in a beam with the same name, there are four of them in total. A river flows from the largest and most popular one. It has three halls, united by a narrow and low peculiar corridor. The first hall is the smallest, the second is a little larger and the third is the largest. Its height is about 10 meters, and its width is from 12 to 25, with a length of 80 meters. While the first hall is only forty-five meters long, 20 meters wide and three meters high. The total length of the Gunkin caves is about one kilometer, but during the flood period, most of them are simply not accessible.

Malaya Laba - river

The peculiarity of this river is always clean and cold water. The riverbed is fed by glaciers, so the water here is always ideal. Along the entire route the Laba is “restive”, right up to the place where it flows into the Great Laba. The river is turbulent and is very popular among rafting enthusiasts. Almost throughout the entire territory of the village the banks are steep and steep. And only outside of it do they become even. During floods the river becomes dangerous. Spills begin and the current is very strong. The river is very popular among fishing tourists. At the same time, fishing here cannot be called calm. You have to be a real professional to catch trout, which is abundant here, or chub.

These places are extremely popular at all times of the year. The water temperature in them reaches 80 – 90 degrees. While in the baths it is 37 - 42. The water here is rich in minerals, for example: potassium, fluorine, calcium and others. Which has the most positive effect on problems of the musculoskeletal system and respiratory tract. Useful water sources and for people susceptible to severe stress and experiencing nervous exhaustion. At the same time, the healing effect lasts for a fairly long period of time. People come here in any weather.

The mountain is strewn with giant trees and boulders. Incredibly a nice place, from the top of which there is a stunning view of the village of Psebay, Caucasus ridge and the Laba River. A visit to Mount Shapka is included in most tourist routes and is the most popular place.

They are located not in Psebay itself, but in the mountains near the village of Nikitino, which is why they are called that. On the way to them, tourists enjoy the view of the cascades. The places here are very beautiful, the route to the Nikitinsky waterfalls themselves is without steep climbs.

Another natural attraction of these places. The road to them is much more difficult than to Nikitinsky, but the view is more breathtaking. Approximate height is about 40 meters. The last few tens of meters just before the waterfall are the most difficult. With steep climbs.

The route is quite difficult. First, you need to drive to the village of Solenoye by car. Then walk a few kilometers. The path runs along the Kyzyl-bek river, through the mountains. But by car you can get to the largest of these waterfalls, almost right next to it. A huge number of tourists cannot resist the temptation to plunge into the bowls of lakes at the foot, created by these waterfalls.

The easiest way to get to the village of Psebay is by car. Public transport rarely comes here. Several transplants are required. Reviews from people who have already been here more than once will help you decide how to get to Psebay.
