Borisovka and the Dolmens near Vasilyevka

Borisovka is a village in the Novorossiysk urban district of Krasnodar Krai. A specific destination for an excursion nearby is the dolmen complex on the slope of Mount Seregay, near Vasilyevka.

Dolmens on Mount Seregay

The complex is divided into a lower group with three well-preserved dolmens and an eastern upper group on the adjacent slope with five to six dolmens. The site can therefore be viewed as two areas: the lower group and the eastern upper group. Its location on the slope and the distinct grouping make this description more specific than simply naming the dolmen complex.

There is a route starting from Borisovka in the wider area. It is intended for pedestrians, bicycles and motorcycles, and can be used year-round. The route is 6 kilometres long and takes 2 to 3 hours. These details are useful when planning a trip because they specify both the time required and the intended means of transport.

Krasnodar Krai: Coastal landscapes and birdlife

Those looking at Krasnodar Krai as a whole will find other distinct nature-related attractions. In the «Azovskiye Kossy» Nature Park (Azov Spits), sea waves and currents shape spits and islands from sand and shells. Shallow coastal waters, the tips of the spits and sandy islands are habitats for colonies of various gull, tern and cormorant species that are present year-round; their presence varies seasonally. The coastal landforms and birdlife offer a different focus from the dolmen complex near Borisovka.

At the «Anapskaya Peresyp» Nature Park (Anapa Sand Spit), visitors can walk along broad, golden beaches. Farther from the sea, the sand forms a series of tall dunes. The landscape therefore combines a coastal walk with views of dune formations. These natural attractions are part of Krasnodar Krai and may be of interest when planning a stay in the region as a whole.

Wine route as a cultural addition to the region

Another perspective is offered by the «Vinniye dorogi Krasnodarskogo kraya» route (Wine Roads of Krasnodar Krai). It presents the more than 2,500-year history of viticulture and winemaking in Krasnodar Krai, from antiquity to the present day, including through interactive exhibitions and installations. The route also passes through Novorossiysk and Abrau-Dyurso. According to its description, visits to 20 wineries are included; this number may change. Check the current operating status and itinerary before planning. This offers a broader regional interest in coastal landscapes or wine culture alongside the specific dolmen destination near Vasilyevka.
