An outstanding historical monument of the ancient Abkhazian kingdom, is within walking distance if you stay in New Athos. I recommend an ECO Villa if you are going to relax in this beautiful town
A cool fortress. For those who like to look at the old days, to dream up. Take a walk. The walk is perfect, the views from the mountain are amazing. Be sure to take a guide, he will tell you an interesting fairy tale.
The ascent and descent take about 1.5 hours, taking into account the time in the photo. Beautiful view of New Athos. Parking is paid for 200 rubles. There's a chapel upstairs.
Nothing interesting
It's hell to go up there in the heat, we didn't get to the end even because the road is bad for climbing and the sun is the most
I regretted that I went)
I went with my son this year, I really liked it. The entrance is paid, I don't remember how much, but it's not expensive: 200/300₽ approximately. At the very top there is a monastery in the chapel of which services are held. A beautiful view opens from the east tower, which is open to the passage. Restoration work is underway in the fortress, which does not prevent you from watching this structure.
The main disadvantage is that it is very high and hard to walk;
The main advantage: it is very high and offers a magnificent view.
A huge architectural monument that has survived to our time. You can climb the observation tower and see the most magnificent view of New Athos. A great place to walk.
A wonderful place to relax!!! A very beautiful view from a height, and the ancient buildings, a well with holy water, a temple, are pleasing to the eye, this place is a must-visit!!!
If you came to New Athos and didn't come up here, you missed a lot! This is one of the best lookouts on the Black Sea!
The route is picturesque, the cost of entry is low, cleanliness, order. The most magnificent view of the sea, New Athos and the Bzyb ridge. Wait for the tour group to set up to learn more about this amazing place. Upstairs, in the fortress, there is a well that will revive you in the summer heat.
A good place. But you need to climb all the way to the top. At the top, the tower, the old chapel, the inexhaustible well have been restored. Well, the view is great opens in all directions.

It's worth going up there! The view from there is amazing 😍 and it turns out to be a great workout 💪 do not forget to put on comfortable shoes and take a bottle of water with you! Then it will be possible to collect water from the endless source above.
And if you read the history of this fortress, it will be even more interesting to wander there...
A must-visit!!!! A place with a huge history and amazing energy. If you like to walk, come here))). The water in the non-drying well is magical. I've never drunk anything tastier. It is impossible to get drunk. It's like you're getting a boost of power. And the panorama of Mount Athos is amazing.
Stunning views and a fortress.
but the cashiers spoiled the desire to come again.
They took the money of an 8-year-old child for parking and 300 rubles for an adult. checks or tickets were not issued, you ask questions and they start to be rude.
I advise everyone to climb from the bottom to the tower! Rest and hiking) the mountain and sea air is already spinning my head) And the views around you will be remembered for a lifetime
Only the most determined will walk the path to the fortress) We walked with a child of 5 years, for more than 1 hour, over rocks and gravel) BUT the view that opens onto the sea and the fortress itself is worth it)
A beautiful, holy place! The monastery and the entire coast are perfectly visible. It's not easy to climb, but this beauty is worth it! At the top there is a well with very tasty cool water.
Gorgeous views of New Athos open from the fortress. Entrance to the territory is paid 300 rubles. To save energy, you can climb with local horsemen 300 rubles per car. There is a well with water on the territory of the fortress. One tower has been restored. You can climb it
It's very beautiful!!! We were rising towards sunset ! We had time. The view from the tower is breathtaking!! If it is possible to walk for 30 minutes along a rocky road , then be sure to do it !!!!
Gorgeous view of New Athos and the mountains. Definitely worth a visit. The road from the sea to the entrance to the mountain is harder than the climb to the fortress itself. Entrance is 300 rubles for adults, 150 for children. It is better to wear comfortable shoes.
You can visit! It's better in the evening, it's not so hot to go, but you will see from a bird's-eye view how the sun sets, beauty. The dogs are poor there, all covered in fleas, it's already a pity. Read a fairy tale about how water appeared in the well.
It's beautiful, the view from the soma tower is just awesome. But in order to reach it, you will have to sweat. There is no normal road, you walk on stones. Going down is much easier. Entrance is paid in 2023 it was 300 rubles per person. It is not clear why, but it was so. You can visit once. I wouldn't want to go downhill a second time
The place is interesting, especially if you have not been to the ruins and want to make a pilgrimage to the mountains. It is possible to get there on foot, but it is difficult. There are stunning views from above, all the efforts of the lift are justified.
The Anakopian fortress is just great everything breathes history you touch antiquity, it's a little hard, so I recommend getting to the entrance by taxi
A very beautiful view
The road to the fortress is long and hard (rocky)

We've been dreaming of coming up here for a long time. Surprisingly, it is a very easy climb. The view is amazing at sunset. The whole Athos is in the palm of your hand. The entrance fee is 300 rubles.
Procopia is mandatory to visit.Every visit I make to the New World is also a trip to Anakopia. Put on comfortable shoes and go ahead. Prepare cash to pay for admission. And in May 2023, the entrance was 300 rubles. There is a spring with the purest water waiting for you upstairs, so take an empty bottle with you. The view from the fortress is simply the best view! You have to see it with your own eyes.
