Route description

Skvoznaya links Krasnoyarsk’s city side with the southern slopes of the Torgashinsky Ridge. From the forest entrance on the Lesopilshchikov Street side, the path climbs to Health Trail, passes ridge junctions and begins a sustained descent towards the allotment area near the Bazaikha. As the slopes change, woodland walking is complemented by views towards the Bolgash valley and rocky formations, including Sivye Rocks identified by the organiser. The attraction is the transition between sides of the ridge: the urban approach gradually gives way to forest, and a different perspective opens beyond the upper junctions. Arrange a verified exit from the southern side or allow for the climb back. A calm viewing pause suits this outing better than hurrying towards every neighbouring grotto.

Difficult sections and safety

На что обратить внимание
Elevation gainСуммарный набор высоты — 324 м.
SurfaceDirt 61%, Concrete 11%, Dirt / grass 1%, Unknown 28%.
Риски The climb to the upper junctions is followed by a sustained descent. Preserve energy, especially if returning along the same path. Check direction using waymarks and the saved map at junctions. Wet slopes and ice make walking harder. Keep away from unstable edges when looking at the scenery; descents to individual rocks or grottoes require another plan.

How much time to allow

Оцените свой темп
Расчётное время в пути 2 h 10 min
С запасом на остановки + 30–60 мин
The organiser gives roughly two hours for the trail itself. Add the city approach, viewing stops and the entire chosen return arrangement. Climb to the Health Trail junction, then continue along Skvoznaya towards the southern side. Assess remaining daylight and energy before descending. A return to the northern start is additional to this one-way outing.

Best time to go

Сезонность и рекомендации
Dry weather and clear daylight are convenient for a first crossing. In autumn, watch damp leaves; in winter, establish slope ice and waymark visibility. Use tick protection during warmer months. Fog and strong wind can reduce the value of viewing stops; establish woodland passage conditions before setting out.

What to bring

Базовый список для комфортного похода
Grippy footwear for the climb and sustained descent.
Water and snacks with a reserve for returning.
A saved map of both approaches, a phone and reserve power.
Forecast-appropriate clothing, rain protection and seasonal tick protection.
A personal first-aid kit and a litter bag; outside help does not replace a reserve of energy.
