Visyachy Kamen

Visyachy Kamen is a protected mountain in the Middle Ural region that rises to approximately 546 meters in elevation. The peak displays distinctive rock formations and supports varied natural habitats across its slopes and lower elevations.

The mountain was shaped during the Hercynian mountain-building period roughly 250 million years ago. This ancient geological process created the distinctive rock formations that visitors see today.

The name refers to the hanging appearance of the rocky outcrops that define the mountain. Local people recognize this form as a key landmark that shapes their understanding of the landscape.

Visitors can reach the mountain by following marked trails from nearby settlements on foot. Summer months provide the most favorable hiking conditions with better trail access and weather.

The protected area covers about 537 hectares and contains multiple ecological zones within its boundaries. This range extends from dense forests at lower elevations to exposed rocky surfaces near the summit.
