One last look at Belucha
Belucha trek5: We set off again on a one-day hike without backpacks to see the waterfalls. The hike is undemanding and passes along a poorly marked route, but the possibility of getting lost is very low, first it crosses the river and then continues with an easy ascent to the opposite ridge, to one of its highest parts where there is a beautiful view of the surrounding countryside.
The river
We cross the river under the camp to the other side and on the right bank of the river we proceed towards Akkem Lake, but before it we jump again a smaller tributary and gradually ascend.
Crossing the river
The crossing of the side tributary and the side road in general should be monitored carefully, because it is constantly changing and therefore there is weak markings, but the chance of getting lost is not high when we watch the terrain.
Ridge
During the day we have beautiful views of the ridge separating the valleys of the rivers Akkem and Kucherla.
Exit
Along the way, we will have about 30 minutes of climbing from the valley to a grassy ridge, which passes through coniferous forests and rises to flowering meadows.
Lake Akkem
During the trip there are wonderful views of Lake Akkem and the surrounding peaks, the only one hiding is the peak Beluchy.
Saddle Kara Torek
During the trip there are wonderful views of the Kara Torek saddle, while most of the day we walk through the meadows, where we often relax and enjoy the wonderful views of the surroundings. The whole hike could be managed in the middle of the day, if we do not enjoy the views of the surroundings.
One last look at Belucha
On the way back we enjoy the last views of Belucha, in the end we discover only one waterfall and it is so small that you can't see it in the photos.
View of the waterfall
The waterfall shows very little, but the hike was still worth it and we enjoy the views of the surrounding countryside.
