Rock "Four Brothers"

If you want to get to know a real geological monument, welcome to the rock"Four brothers"... These rocks have an original shape that resembles four men standing side by side, shoulder to shoulder. It is because of this similarity that the rocks were named "Four Brothers".

The Four Brothers rock was known back in the 19th century, whenresort Belokurikhajust started my work. At this point, a rock came to the surface, which forms an arrayBelokurikh... As a result of the weathering of stone outliers, the very granite appeared, which so resembles the figures of the brothers.

The rock reaches a height of 10 meters, its area is 75 m2. You can go to it along a small narrow path, along the way you can meet rare birds, squirrels and chipmunks, who are not at all afraid of people. If you decide to continue your journey further, you will be able to reach another attraction - the rocks "Gate of Love".

How to get there

Above the sanatorium "Russia" (it remains on the right hand) there is a narrow asphalt road past the helipad in the direction of the taiga harbor "Lesnaya Skazka". After a kilometer of a slight rise, it continues on a dirt road in the forest. After a rather steep ascent, the wide road leaves to the left, towards the Four Brothers.

Another way - along Altayskaya street to the end. From the checkpoint of the resort (opposite the Altai Castle sanatorium), walk along the right bank of the Tatar stream. Passing the ford, continue on the left bank to the "Tatarsky" pass. From it, take the right and go to the wide road that goes to the left. She will lead to the desired rock.
