Golіtsinsky stitch and Grote, Mountain trail in Novyi Svit, Crimea
The Golitsyn Trail extends for three kilometers along the Black Sea coast, carved into the limestone cliffs of Mount Koba-Kaya at varying heights.
Prince Lev Golitsyn commissioned the construction of this trail in 1912 for the visit of Emperor Nicholas II to inspect local wine production.
The trail features the Chaliapin Grotto, a natural cave where famous Russian opera singer Feodor Chaliapin performed concerts during the early 1900s.
The trail starts at the Green Bay near Novyi Svit settlement and continues through three bays, with multiple observation platforms providing rest areas.
Within the limestone caves along the trail, Prince Golitsyn established wine cellars that maintained constant temperature for champagne production.
