Stavri Kaya, Mountain summit in Crimea, Ukraine.
The Stavri Kaya mountain rises to 663 meters above sea level, featuring steep cliffs on its northern, eastern, and southern sides near Yalta.
The name Stavri Kaya derives from Greek origins, where 'stavros' means cross, referring to a religious symbol previously mounted on the rock formation.
Local communities maintain traditional festivals and markets at the base of Stavri Kaya, showcasing regional crafts and agricultural products throughout the year.
Three main hiking trails lead to the summit: Botkin path from Yalta, Stavrikaya path from Yalta Yayla, and Shtangeev path from Uchan-Su waterfall.
The mountain houses several rare plant species listed in the Ukrainian Red Book, making it an essential location for botanical research and conservation.
