Legend has it that the place where the village of Vestochka and the rest of the Frog are now located was the temple of wisdom of ancient Ainu. They came here to communicate with the heavenly spirits and be alone with nature. This place until today, like a magnet, attracts modern magicians and ufologists. Here mysterious and inexplicable phenomena occur that excite the minds of scientists and psychics. Most likely, it is not without reason that the rocks, of which the Frog belongs, stand relative to each other like the planets of the solar system. There is some kind of magic in it and you can touch it.
On the way to the outlier you will find yourself in the extraordinary Sunny Meadow, unique in the variability of colors: it shines with all the shades of green several times a day. Flowers don't grow on it, so it looks like someone occasionally steps into a clearing on a lawn mower - it's so uniform and well-groomed.
Moonglade is another unusual place. There is a stone of desire. Tourists from all over the world come here to attract good luck.
Another meeting awaits you with a mountain river, which transports its fresh water, leaving plenty to drink for the afflicted or for washing. The water inside is believed to be healing, so some tourists collect bottles of mountain water from Komissarovka and take it with them.
Numerous travelers followed the path from the Frog to Ayhor Falls. You can reach it on foot at special intersections with suspension bridges. The magnificent view is a 200m long waterfall.
