Mount Ai-Petri

Mount Aypetri, Ay Petri
Crimea, Koreiz
The main ridge of the Crimean mountains is divided into yayls - separate massifs with a hilly surface. Ai-Petri Yayla (1254 m) can be reached by highway from Yalta or from Miskhor by cable car. It was laid in 1987, its length is 3 km, the ascent time is 20 minutes. The teeth of Ai-Petri form four large (12-15 m high) and a number of small sheer peaks, composed of reef limestones. A huge bazaar offers all kinds of oriental dishes. Excellent conditions for active tourism, horse and camel riding, mountain biking, jeeps, paragliding, shooting military adventures and fantasy.
Near the Zubtsov, the reserved Beech Grove grows, the largest on the Main Ridge. At the edge of the yayla there is a pine tree - "Airplane", it is about 300 years old. Tourists usually visit the Ai-Petrinsky meridian - a stone globe with accurate geodetic data, a viewing platform on the Shishko rock, a weather station, Mount Bedene-Kyr (several ski lifts operate here in winter), the Three-Eyed Cave, equipped for excursions. On the slope near the highway from Yalta to Ai-Petri, you can see a "drunk" pine grove - a centuries-old forest of Crimean pine, disturbed by a landslide.

Definitely worth a visit. We went up and down the cable car. Almost all the buildings at the top were demolished by a bulldozer. Climbing to the peak, beautiful landscapes open up. You can also relax with a tent.

It's definitely worth staying. The view and cable car are great. The main thing is that the weather is clear, when it is cloudy all the magic is lost.

If you have already happened to get to Yalta, it is undoubtedly worth climbing Ai-Petri at least once. If you are tired of the heat, it is cooler on the plateau than below. If Yalta is covered with clouds, and you miss the sun - again, you should climb Ai-Petri. Well, and finally, if you got to the South Coast in winter, and you don’t have enough snow, you are guaranteed snowdrifts on Ai-Petri. Choose the method of ascent yourself - on foot, by cable car or by car. Each method has its own chips.
