Description

Antonova Rock is a majestic sheer cliff located on the territory of the Bashkiria National Park, 2 km from the village of Kutanovo, Burzyansky district, along the left bank of the Agidel River. This place is a popular holiday destination for both locals and tourists.

A campsite called “Antonova Rock” is organized on the rock, where three types of tourist sites are equipped for tourists. There are also many beautiful places to relax along the banks of the Agidel River.

According to one of the legends, a white general named Anton was hiding in the caves of this rock during the Civil War, who, as the legend says, hid a treasure in one of the caves, but it has not yet been found. There is also a version that in the 17th or 18th century, in a cave located at an altitude of 50 meters, lived a hermit named Anton, who fled here from the Orenburg province.

Although the site is not easy to reach, it is popular with both locals and tourists, especially those who go river rafting. The campsite is located along the rafting route. However, to visit this place you have to overcome several obstacles, especially if you come from Kiekbaevo, where the road is not paved for about 20 kilometers.
