First you will visit the Geographical Society Cave. In Soviet times, a branch of the V.K. Arsenyev Museum was located here, where the sculptural composition “Cavemen by the Fire” was installed. Now partially preserved concrete steps, the entrance to the cave is covered by a door. This route requires a headlamp and a spare set of batteries. Interestingly, evidence of human settlements more than 30 thousand years ago, as well as bone remains of mammals weighing about 2 tons, were found in these places. These were the remains of a mammoth, a primitive bison, a long-haired rhino, a wild horse, a hyena, a tiger, and others. After conducting radiocarbon analysis, it was established that man inhabited the Golden Valley 32,570 years ago. Next you will visit the Przewalski karst cave, which is the most spectacular of the three. It has two entrances, the total length of more than 100 meters. In the left room you will be waiting for a saber-toothed tiger, as if ready to attack right now. Here you can often see an interesting phenomenon - stalagmites. In the right hall, a bear family will appear before you: a mother and a bear cubs, a stone owl will watch everything that happens in the cave. All sculptures are man-made, the name of the author is unknown. A little above the Przewalski cave is the “Lisya” cave, or, as it is also called “Fox Nora”. You'll almost crawl into it. The cave is narrow, low, winding, like a burrow of a cunning animal. It's about 70 meters long. After exploring the ancient past of Primorye, have a picnic in the clearing. Collect firewood, make a fire and make a branded tea. Snack and water for tea should be taken with you. Next, we climb the Przewalski rock, the climb time is approximately 20 minutes.
