Khadyzhensk city, Krasnodar region: reviews of those who moved to permanent residence

The Krasnodar region is famous not only for its sea; Khadyzhensk, for example, is known for its balneological resort significance. Tourists come here not only to relax, but also to improve their health. A warm temperate climate, mineral waters, lots of greenery, beautiful mountains and developed infrastructure make this southern city of Kuban an ideal choice for a great vacation.

In outline

Despite this, as old-timers say, the city has always been lively and cheerful, bright and flourishing.

The large Adyghe village of Khatukaevites “Khydyzhyy” (Khadyzhi) in 1864 was renamed the village of Khadyzhenskaya. Kuban Cossacks lived here, who came from ruined steppe villages and villages, immigrants from the Don, the Urals and Ukraine. At the very beginning of the last century, mineral healing springs and oil deposits were discovered near the village. The extraction and processing of “black gold” began to develop especially quickly. This led to rapid population growth. And by the beginning of 1950, by decision of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR, the village was given the status of an urban settlement.

Climatic features

The Krasnodar region is considered one of the warmest regions of Russia. Residents of the middle zone who come for permanent residence in Khadyzhensk especially appreciate this.

The climatic conditions of the city are influenced by the geographical location. The city of Khadyzhensk (Krasnodar Territory) is located in the foothills of the North Caucasus, on its western side, in the valley of the Pshish and Khadazhka rivers, and is surrounded by a huge forest area. During a drought, the shelter is ten centimeters deep. During rainstorms, the river level rises several meters. The water is almost always at a comfortable temperature.

Summer temperatures do not rise above 24-27 °C. Winter here is mild, there are practically no big minuses (-5...-2 °C). The warm period lasts from early April to mid-November. Winter is short, only 65-70 days. Snow rarely lasts longer than two days.

Alpine meadows, valleys and mountains

The unique beauty of these places is mesmerizing. The mountains here are still small, stunningly vast valleys of lowland rivers, fast mountain streams carrying huge boulders, and as far as the eye can see - forests with centuries-old pines, firs and yews.

The forest approaches the very borders of the city, and its paths rise into the mountains, revealing the mesmerizing delights of alpine meadows. The forest in the valleys consists of ash, linden, hornbeam, maple, oak, wild jasmine, Caucasian rhododendron, hazel (hazel). The forest in the foothills is made up of tall beeches. There is no undergrowth here, but only dry leaves and branches, half-rotten trees littered with winds. The beech forest (huge trunks and branches intertwined at the top) is an eerie silence, dampness and twilight.

The southern slopes of the mountains are home to centuries-old pear, apple, chestnut and wild grape trees. By the way, the chestnut in the foothill forests of Khadyzhensk differs from the Black Sea one in taste and size. And its wood is used in numerous woodworking workshops to make beautiful and durable furniture.

Naturally, the city of Khadyzhensk (Krasnodar Territory) itself is surrounded by greenery, the air is filled with freshness and the aromas of flowers. Breathe here freely and easily: there are many oak and beech alleys in the absence of industrial enterprises and a large number of cars. The city has cozy thickets of boxwood, yew, pine and huge meadows of Crimean roses. By the way, she is not only beautiful. Decoctions and infusions of its petals have healing powers.

Excerpt characterizing Khadyzhensk

Throughout dinner, Anna Mikhailovna talked about rumors of war, about Nikolushka; I asked twice when the last letter from him was received, although I knew this before, and noticed that it would be very easy, perhaps, to receive a letter today. Every time at these hints the countess began to worry and look anxiously, first at the count, then at Anna Mikhailovna, Anna Mikhailovna most imperceptibly reduced the conversation to insignificant subjects. Natasha, of the whole family, most gifted with the ability to sense shades of intonation, glances and facial expressions, from the beginning of dinner her ears pricked up and knew that there was something between her father and Anna Mikhailovna and something concerning her brother, and that Anna Mikhailovna was preparing. Despite all her courage (Natasha knew how sensitive her mother was to everything related to the news about Nikolushka), she did not dare to ask questions at dinner and, out of anxiety, ate nothing at dinner and spun around in her chair, not listening to her governess’s comments. After lunch, she rushed headlong to catch up with Anna Mikhailovna and in the sofa room, with a running start, threw herself on her neck. - Auntie, my dear, tell me, what is it? - Nothing, my friend. - No, darling, darling, honey, peach, I won’t leave you behind, I know you know. Anna Mikhailovna shook her head. “Voua etes une fine mouche, mon enfant, [You are a delight, my child.],” she said. - Is there a letter from Nikolenka? Maybe! – Natasha screamed, reading the affirmative answer in Anna Mikhailovna’s face. - But for God's sake, be careful: you know how this can affect your maman. - I will, I will, but tell me. Won't you tell me? Well, I’ll go and tell you now. Anna Mikhailovna told Natasha in short words the contents of the letter with the condition not to tell anyone. “Honest, noble word,” Natasha said, crossing herself, “I won’t tell anyone,” and immediately ran to Sonya. “Nikolenka... wounded... letter...” she said solemnly and joyfully. - Nicolas! – Sonya just said, instantly turning pale. Natasha, seeing the impression made on Sonya by the news of her brother’s wound, felt for the first time the whole sad side of this news. She rushed to Sonya, hugged her and cried. – A little wounded, but promoted to officer; “He’s healthy now, he writes himself,” she said through tears. “It’s clear that all of you women are crybabies,” said Petya, walking around the room with decisive big steps. “I am so very glad and, truly, very glad that my brother distinguished himself so much.” You are all nurses! you don't understand anything. – Natasha smiled through her tears. -Have you not read the letter? – Sonya asked. “I didn’t read it, but she said that everything was over, and that he was already an officer...” “Thank God,” said Sonya, crossing herself. “But maybe she deceived you.” Let's go to maman. Petya walked silently around the room. “If I were Nikolushka, I would kill even more of these French,” he said, “they are so vile!” I would beat them so much that they would make a bunch of them,” continued Petya. “Be quiet, Petya, what a fool you are!” “I’m not a fool, but those who cry over trifles are fools,” said Petya. – Do you remember him? – after a minute of silence Natasha suddenly asked. Sonya smiled: “Do I remember Nicolas?” “No, Sonya, do you remember him so well that you remember him well, that you remember everything,” Natasha said with a diligent gesture, apparently wanting to attach the most serious meaning to her words. “And I remember Nikolenka, I remember,” she said. - I don’t remember Boris. I don’t remember at all... - How? Don't remember Boris? – Sonya asked in surprise. “It’s not that I don’t remember, I know what he’s like, but I don’t remember it as well as Nikolenka.” Him, I close my eyes and remember, but Boris is not there (she closed her eyes), so, no - nothing! “Ah, Natasha,” said Sonya, looking enthusiastically and seriously at her friend, as if she considered her unworthy to hear what she had to say, and as if she were saying this to someone else with whom one should not joke. “I once fell in love with your brother, and no matter what happens to him, to me, I will never stop loving him throughout my life.” Natasha looked at Sonya in surprise and with curious eyes and was silent. She felt that what Sonya said was true, that there was such love as Sonya spoke about; but Natasha had never experienced anything like this. She believed it could be, but she didn't understand. -Will you write to him? – she asked. Sonya thought about it. The question of how to write to Nicolas and whether to write and how to write was a question that tormented her. Now that he was already an officer and a wounded hero, was it good of her to remind him of herself and, as it were, of the obligation that he had assumed in relation to her. - Don't know; I think if he writes, I’ll write too,” she said, blushing. “And you won’t be ashamed to write to him?” Sonya smiled. - No. “And I’ll be ashamed to write to Boris, I won’t write.” - Why are you ashamed? Yes, I don’t know. Embarrassing, embarrassing. “And I know why she will be ashamed,” said Petya, offended by Natasha’s first remark, “because she was in love with this fat man with glasses (that’s how Petya called his namesake, the new Count Bezukhy); Now she’s in love with this singer (Petya was talking about the Italian, Natasha’s singing teacher): so she’s ashamed. “Petya, you’re stupid,” Natasha said. “No more stupid than you, mother,” said nine-year-old Petya, as if he were an old foreman. The Countess was prepared by hints from Anna Mikhailovna during dinner. Having gone to her room, she, sitting on an armchair, did not take her eyes off the miniature portrait of her son embedded in the snuffbox, and tears welled up in her eyes. Anna Mikhailovna, with the letter, tiptoed up to the countess's room and stopped. “Don’t come in,” she said to the old count who was following her, “later,” and closed the door behind her. The Count put his ear to the lock and began to listen. At first he heard the sounds of indifferent speeches, then one sound of Anna Mikhailovna's voice, making a long speech, then a cry, then silence, then again both voices spoke together with joyful intonations, and then steps, and Anna Mikhailovna opened the door for him. On Anna Mikhailovna's face was the proud expression of an operator who had completed a difficult amputation and was introducing the audience so that they could appreciate his art. - C'est fait! [The job is done!] - she said to the count, pointing with a solemn gesture at the countess, who was holding a snuffbox with a portrait in one hand, a letter in the other, and pressed her lips to one or the other. Seeing the count, she stretched out her arms to him, hugged his bald head and through the bald head again looked at the letter and portrait and again, in order to press them to her lips, she slightly pushed the bald head away. Vera, Natasha, Sonya and Petya entered the room and the reading began. The letter briefly described the campaign and two battles in which Nikolushka participated, promotion to officer, and said that he kisses the hands of maman and papa, asking for their blessing, and kisses Vera, Natasha, Petya. In addition, he bows to Mr. Sheling, and Mr. Shos and the nanny, and, in addition, asks to kiss dear Sonya, whom he still loves and about whom he still remembers. Hearing this, Sonya blushed so that tears came to her eyes. And, unable to withstand the glances directed at her, she ran into the hall, ran up, spun around and, inflating her dress with a balloon, flushed and smiling, sat down on the floor. The Countess was crying.

No special reasons needed

There are not many healing mineral springs, entertainment, but they exist, monuments and historically important places attract people here not only as tourists, but also as future residents of the city.

In 1953, another attempt was made to explore for oil along the southern border of the city. Instead of the expected oil, a mineral water source began to flow from a well more than 500 m deep. From this period, Khadyzhensk became known as a balneological hospital. The water turned out to contain a uniquely high percentage of iodine - more than 0.400 g/l and bromine - 0.087 g/l. Alkaline sodium chloride water with the natural addition of iodine and bromine is used for drinking treatment.

And sodium bicarbonate-chloride water containing bromine and iodine, scientifically recognized as drinking water, is mineralized and bottled under the trademark “Khadyzhenskaya”.

There are several children's health camps, health centers and sanatoriums in the city. On Krasnoarmeyskaya Street there are two mineral springs for public use. One of them is located in a gazebo with benches. Anyone entering here is greeted by an inscription that can be read in the photo below.

The city of Khadyzhensk (Krasnodar Territory) is called healing by reviews from those who moved here. New residents of the city write that all sorts of ailments were cured, and peace and tranquility appeared in their souls.

A few kilometers from Khadyzhensk a so-called “people's sanatorium” was formed. Treatment consists of taking barrel baths. Iodine-bromine water comes out of the ground. Recent research proves its uniqueness. Khadyzhans also take pride in the unique blue clay that can be collected along the banks of the Khadazhka River. In appearance, it looks like small pebbles of gray-green or gray-blue color.

Holidays in Kuban: balneological resort Khadyzhensk

Khadyzhensk is a balneotherapeutic foothill resort in the forest zone, located in the valley of the cold mountain rivers Pshisha and Khadyzhka in the foothills of the North-Western Caucasus. This small town is known for its moderately mineralized iodine-bromine waters with a uniquely high content of iodine and bromine, as well as sodium chloride alkaline water containing iodine and bromine.

The city of Khadyzhensk, Apsheronsky district, Krasnodar region, is located in the valley of the Pshish River, 25 km from the regional center and 120 km from Krasnodar. The population of the city is about 20 thousand people. Until 1864, on the site of the city there was an Adyghe village of Khatukaevites “Khadyzhi”, which translated from Adyghe means “valley of ancient graves”.

HOW TO GET THERE

You can get to Khadyzhensk in three ways: by bus, by train and by car. It is best to get to Krasnodar, and from there go to the city of Khadyzhensk. From Krasnodar to Khadyzhensk buses run along two routes: one passes through the regional center of Apsheronsk (this bus runs more frequently), and the second runs along the Krasnodar-Dzhugba highway - go to the city of Goryachiy Klyuch, then about 50 km along a winding mountain road. Buses from Krasnodar depart from the Krasnodar-1 bus station several times a day. The journey will take about 3 hours. The current ticket price is 187.5 rubles.

You can also get there from Krasnodar by taxi. It will cost about 1500-2000 rubles one way. During the day you can leave the regional center of Apsheronsk both by hitchhiking (from the intersection of roads in the form of a circle) and from the station. The distance between Apsheronsk and Khadyzhensk is only 24 km.

The Khadyzhenskaya railway station is located 6 km from the town itself. The village of Stantsionny is located around it. Buses run between these settlements, and taxi drivers are constantly on duty (150-200 rubles). You can also take the train to Krasnodar-1 station (120 km from the city) or Goryachiy Klyuch station (50 km from the city), then by taxi or bus.

WEATHER AND CLIMATE

The city of Khadyzhensk is located in the intermountain basin of the foothills of the North-Western Caucasus, in the valley of the Pshish River. Deciduous forests covering the slopes of the mountains are closely adjacent to the city.

Thanks to the mountains surrounding it, the city has a special microclimate - it is warmer in winter and cooler in summer than in neighboring areas. The average annual air temperature in Khadyzhensk is +10 degrees, the average temperature in July is +24, in winter +4. During the year, 800-1000 mm of precipitation falls here, the largest amount in February and November. The driest and windless months of the year are August, September, October. Even in such unfavorable months as December, February, March, the sun shines 70-100 hours a month. Snow cover in winter lasts no more than 50-60 days.

Cyclones and anticyclones occur on winter and spring days. Cyclones are accompanied by precipitation - rain in summer, snow in winter. Anticyclones are accompanied by clear, frosty weather in winter and dry and hot days in summer. In winter, Khadyzhensk is much warmer than in neighboring settlements - Apsheronsk, Neftegorsk or Goryachiy Klyuch. In summer it is much cooler. The mountains surrounding it on all sides, covered with dense tall forests, protect the city from cold winter and hot summer winds. The cold mountain water of the rivers Pshish, Tusheps and Khadazhki also has a very strong effect on mitigating the summer heat.

Khadyzhensk successfully combines climatic and hydromineral factors, which provide favorable conditions for the development of a resort and the treatment of patients with a wide range of indications throughout the year.

TREATMENT

In 1953, a decision was made to create a balneological resort in Khadyzhensk. Based on iodine-bromine waters, the hydrotherapy center quickly gained fame due to the effective treatment of radiculitis, polyarthritis, eczema, general atherosclerosis, hypertension, heavy metal poisoning, scrofulosis and many other diseases.

In addition to these chloride-sodium waters with an admixture of bromine, from the other sources of the Pshisha Valley, mineral waters such as Borjomi and Essentuki, as well as some others, are of particular value, the development of which is a reliable basis for the development in Khadyzhensk of a balneological resort of national importance, with a multifaceted therapeutic profile.

The most favorable time of year for treatment in Khadyzhensk is the period from April to November. After November, the arrival here of patients suffering from hypertension, neuroses, vegetative-vascular disorders, and vascular sclerosis is undesirable.

NATURE AND ATTRACTIONS

Khadyzhensk is one of the wonderful places for recreation and tourism in Kuban. In the foothills of the region there are many protected natural areas: the subalpine plateau of Lago-Naki; Guam Gorge with a river canyon and a narrow-gauge road running along the bottom of the gorge; karst Azish caves - an underground kingdom at a depth of 37 m with a fantastic accumulation of stalactites, stalagmites and stalagnates; Wolf Gate gorge, Samur Lake and others.

Pshish is the first major left-bank tributary of the Kuban, which does not originate on glaciers. It originates on the western slope of Mount Shessy (1884 m) and, after traveling a 258-kilometer path, flows into the Krasnodar reservoir, located slightly lower on the right bank of the Kuban. In the upper part, the Pshisha valley has the appearance of a gorge, squeezed by ridges of medium height. Their steep slopes are cut by side cracks of tributaries and covered with oak and beech forests. In its middle course, the Pshish reaches a zone of gently sloping foothills overgrown with oak, and its lower reaches are located on a foothill forest-steppe plain.

Forests starting at the very outskirts of Khadyzhensk go deep into the mountains, to alpine meadows. In the vicinity of Khadyzhensk there are oak, maple, ash, hornbeam, linden, silver poplar with an undergrowth of wild jasmine, ozhin, hazel and Caucasian rhododendron, called rededa by local residents. There are also beech forests here. On the sunny, southern slopes of the mountains there are huge groves of centuries-old pears, apple trees, cherry plums, chestnuts, and wild grapes. Local chestnut, unlike the Black Sea chestnut, is larger and more spreading. Coniferous trees, boxwood, and bear nuts also grow here. In many places, euonymus, mackerel, dogwood, Caucasian ivy, and ornamental liana grow among fruit trees.

The grass cover of alpine pastures, forest glades and river valleys is represented by more than 600 species of grass. In mid-summer, in the high-mountain meadows there are up to 200 species of grasshoppers, crickets, praying mantises, sharp-headed bugs, striped beetles, horse beetles, horseflies, and longhorned beetles. In the forests there are many birds (thrush, woodpecker, cuckoo, magpie, black-headed jay) and animals (bear, wild boar, roe deer, wild goat). Pshish is rich in fish. Here you can find perch, bystryanka, podust, barbel, spikefish, Caucasian chub, catfish, gudgeon and others.

As the Caucasian Knot correspondent was told in one of the travel companies in the Krasnodar Territory, today Khadyzhensk is the most popular among people whose goal is not just to relax in the Kuban, but to receive full-fledged treatment: “Those who want to receive consultations and undergo high-quality treatment in natural conditions, especially people suffering from diseases of the endocrine system, metabolic disorders, diseases of the nervous system, respiratory system, gynecological diseases, very often choose the Khadyzhensky sanatorium. Many of the resort's visitors come there more than once. These are people who value silence, nature and peace. And those who want an active holiday, the sea or skiing, of course, will like other resorts in Kuban.”

Rest for the soul

Khadyzhensk (Krasnodar Territory), reviews of those who moved to permanent residence define this very accurately, it has many advantages. It is located in a mountain bowl. The city's borders are centuries-old beech and oak forests. Generous nature also took care of tourists. What is Belaya Krucha worth! These are indescribably beautiful cliffs of ancient white stone surrounded by virgin forest. Or the Guam Gorge. Here, through the narrow, breathtaking mountain (sometimes very narrow) gorges, you can ride a trolley, if you have the courage. And Mount Gaiman, which looks like the back of a dinosaur that they want to lasso, also attracts tourists.

And more recently, in the forests surrounding Khadyzhensk, mysterious inscriptions were discovered on bare areas of rocks. As it turned out, there are no analogues in the world. And there are so many caves around the city, and rocks, and waterfalls!

And if you drive a little away from the city, you can explore the Lago-Naki plateau and Mount Fisht. It’s better to see the city of Khadyzhensk in the Krasnodar Territory for yourself. Photos do not convey even part of the sensations that fill the soul.

The Regional Council for Sports and Tourism has created a base in the city that is developing routes for excursions and hikes to memorable and historical places in the region. One of the popular ones begins in Khadyzhensk and six days later leads travelers to the resort town of Ashe. 77 picturesque kilometers introduce tourists not only to the flora and fauna, but also to the historical value of these places.

The city is intended for a relaxing holiday or treatment for various diseases. There are no significant attractions on the territory of Khadyzhensk.

Kaverzinsky waterfall photo

You can see this attraction by driving 46 kilometers. When you're on vacation, distance means nothing compared to the experiences you can get. The waterfall is located on the Tambov Shchel stream and falls from a height of 12 meters.

It's certainly not Niagara Falls, but if you've never seen a waterfall in the real world, it's an impressive sight. You can get to the attraction by following the Goryachiy Klyuch and Don highway. You only need to drive along it for 5 kilometers.

If you team up with other tourists, you can take a taxi. The car will take you there and take you back. You can also take a bus if you want to explore the surrounding area.

In addition to the Kaverzinsky waterfall itself, there are other smaller waterfalls. One of them falls from a height of 2 meters, the second - from 6 meters. A convenient staircase leads to the Kaverzinsky waterfall right next to the water. If you climb it, you can see the surroundings from above, admire nature and explore the University Cave, which is located nearby. You will bring back a lot of photos and a good mood from the excursion.

Mount Fisht photo

One of the places where you can experience vivid emotions while riding a helicopter. Getting to the attraction from Khadyzhensk is about 60 kilometers, but it’s worth it.

Climbing the mountain is quite difficult, and if there is no physical fitness and desire to test yourself, then a helicopter ride will be relevant. Naturally, going up on horseback or on foot will be more interesting and cheaper.

Here you will meet people, have a nice walk, look at the surroundings from observation platforms, and take bright photographs. There are numerous grottoes and caves on Mount Fisht. When you're lucky with the weather, you can see the Soaring Bird, White Star, Cross Tourist and other grottoes.

Moreover, you will encounter underground rivers, waterfalls, and inaccessible rocks. Such adventures broaden your horizons, excite your consciousness and fill you with joy. Despite the distance and time spent on the road, it’s definitely worth going here.

Mount Chugush photo

Another natural attraction that will delight adventure lovers. Translated into Russian, the name of the mountain means Top of the Earth. Indeed, the peak of the mountain goes far into the sky; the height here is more than 3200 meters above the sea line.

But it’s not even the height that is considered dangerous. On the territory of the mountain there are about 10 glaciers, inaccessible rocks that attract travelers. The trek feels like climbing Everest, only it’s cheaper and much safer.

The adventure will require preparation, so it would be a good idea to take a couple of rock climbing and mountaineering lessons. The instructors will tell you how to behave in the mountains and give you the basic skills you will need.

Climbing the mountain is done only with a guide and equipment. Some sections on the way to the top will have to be passed with a rope and equipment. You will go around a stone ledge, which climbers among themselves call the gendarme.

The trip will give you more impressions than the sea. In ordinary life, few people manage to relax so brightly, so you need to take everything you can from your vacation. When getting to the ascent point, focus on the village of Krasnaya Polyana.

This is where real adventure and adrenaline begin. The hike is not suitable for couples with children and people with diseases of the musculoskeletal system and cardiovascular system. The climb requires physical fitness and endurance and is classified as difficulty level 1B.

You can get to the ascent site from Krasnaya Polyana. If we talk about the distance, then from Khadyzhensk it is about 80 kilometers. Mount Bolshaya Chura can be seen far away; its height is about 2500 meters above sea level. It is covered with haze and glaciers.

On one side the mountain is rocky and steep, on the other there is a gentle slope along which you can climb up. It is full of vegetation and trees. Most often you can find subalpine plant species here.

Climbing the mountain is done with a guide and equipment. The excursion will be remembered for a long time as a bright adventure.
