DESCRIPTION

Our journey begins in Murmansk and the first 100 km we will drive along a good but winding asphalt road. After checking the documents at the checkpoint, we will turn onto the dirt road leading to the goal of our trip, where "speed is regulated by bumps," as one of our famous local historians wrote. A picturesque road leads us through the pass to the neck where the Sredny Peninsula begins. Even before the pass we notice a pointer to the old German road (Scwaben weg or Parovaar road).
Built over 75 years ago, it is a monument to German engineering and detail. Until now the road is in a more or less decent condition, despite the fact that military vehicles periodically passes along it. We will definitely come here on the way back, but now Sredny Peninsula is waiting for us.
During World War II, fierce battles took place on the Musta-Tunturi ridge separating the peninsula from the mainland. We will begin the tour with a visit to the museum and then proceed to the German fortifications and flamethrower positions located on the rocks. The defense was held by elite units - the Edelweiss mountain shooters.
Our next aim is the bizarre cliffs Two brothers on the western tip of the peninsula. We will have enough time for photographing and walking around the surroundings. But we will stay for the night on the Rybachy Peninsula already, not far from the isthmus.
The next day will be dedicated to exploring of the Rybachy peninsula. We will visit the beautiful Kekursky cape, drive into Andreevskaya Bay, meeting on our way abandoned military settlements and fortifications. In good weather, considerable time can be devoted to walks on the seashore. The second night is on Rybachy, and on the third day we will reluctantly return to civilization, not forgetting to take a glance at the Old German Road.

Attention! To pass the checkpoint you must have a Russian passport or residence permit with you. Citizens of other countries should apply for a visit to Federal Security Service border control.
