Валун Русич, Glacier boulder in Lomakha village, Leningrad Oblast, Russia

The Rusich boulder measures 5 meters in height, 8 meters in width, and has a circumference of 33 meters in a grey granite formation.

The boulder dates back to the Ice Age and remains one of the largest glacial stones found in the Leningrad region of Russia.

Local residents share stories about ancient Slavic tribes using this boulder for gatherings and ceremonial purposes in pre-Christian times.

The boulder location includes parking areas, walking paths, information boards, and designated spaces for visitors to explore the surrounding nature.

An apple tree grows next to this massive granite formation, which features a distinct shape resembling a ram's head.
