The Klyazma River is not navigable, but it is well known to the people of Russia. This river flows through Moscow, they flow through the territory of the Vladimir, Nizhny Novgorod region. references to Klyazma are often found in chronicle sources. This is a classic Russian river, the banks of which have witnessed many historical events.

Where does she go

Klyazma originates near the city of Kovrov. To understand where it goes given river, it is necessary to indicate its features and the main natural objects associated with it:

• The Klyazma is a very large river. It is full-flowing and in several places its width exceeds 200 meters. But in most cases, the width of the river ranges from 50 to 130 meters. This is a serious indicator, which determines the presence of a large number of fish and aquatic animals in the river;
• the deepest depth is 8 meters. But such a depth is not typical for this river at all. Therefore, the standard depth is an indicator of no more than 2 meters;
• On the territory of the Nizhny Novgorod region, a state reserve was created along the banks of the river. It is called "Klyazmensky". The specified reserve was created in order to preserve the population of beaver and muskrat. These animals traditionally lived along the banks of the Klyazma. But the active development of the river by man has led to a reduction in the habitats of beavers and desmans;
• the river passes several reservoirs - Klyazmenskoe and Pirogovskoe. Passing through them, the river continues on its way;
• it flows into the Volga. Thus, this river goes from the Oka to the Volga.

From what has been said, it follows that the river flows into the Volga, which is largest river European part of Russia.

Why is Klyazma famous?

People settled in the territories adjacent to the river for a long time. They hunted, fished, collected honey from wild bees and berries. These places abounded with game and fish. Therefore, some people replaced others. On the banks of the Klyazma, scientists have discovered several interesting burials of different eras.

For example, a burial of the Fatyanovo culture dating back to the 3rd millennium BC was found there. It is believed that representatives of this culture could be the ancestors of the Slavs.

The Klyazma River flows through the Moscow, Vladimir, Ivanovo and Nizhny Novgorod regions. Its basin area is 42,500 km². More than 30 small rivers flow into it. Almost all of them are not navigable, but interesting tourist routes can be laid along them. The following reservoirs are suitable for this:

Reservoirs (Klyazmenskoye, Pyalovskoye, Pestovskoye, Ikshinskoye)

These reservoirs were formed as a result of the construction of dams in the upper reaches of the Iksha, Ucha, and Klyazma rivers. Reservoirs are interconnected by canals.

The following routes are possible:

1. From the Podrezkovo Oktyabrskaya platform railway to the village of Pirogovo along the Klyazma River - 30 km(from the Podrezkovo platform to the Klyazma River 2.5 km). Overnight stay should be arranged at 4-5 km from the beginning of the journey in 1-2 km below the village of Melkisarovo. First 10 km pass along the Klyazma River (there are small shoals), then the path passes along the Klyazma reservoir to the station of the Pirogovskaya dam.
2. From the Vodniki platform of the Savelovskaya railway (to the water 0.6 km) to the Pirogovskaya dam - 17 km. From the final point to the railway station Pirogovo of the Yaroslavl railway no more than 1 km.
3. From the Vodniki platform to the village of Tishkovo - 25 km(for three reservoirs and the Moscow Canal). From the sanatorium town of Tishkovo by bus to the Pravda station of the Yaroslavl railway (12 km).
4. From the Vodniki platform to the village of Chernaya, located on the Ikshinsky reservoir at 1.5 km from the Trudovaya platform of the Savelovskaya railway - 35 km.
5. From the Vodniki platform to the Iksha station of the Savelovskaya railway - 40 km.
6. From the village of Tishkovo to the Pirogovskaya dam - 26 km.
7. From the village of Tishkovo to the village of Chernaya (Trudovaya platform) - 17 km. It is recommended to organize a night bivouac in the bay of the Kakotka River (above the village of Mikhalevo), where there are good banks and forest. In this case, the route is extended by about 7 km.It should be borne in mind that kayaking along the canals is not safe, it requires skill and speed in making decisions due to the large waves that occur during the passage of steamers.

Klyazma river

The Klyazma River, the largest left tributary of the Oka, originates on the southern slope of the Klinsko-Dmitrovskaya Upland near the village of Shelepanovo, flows eastward, crossing the Moscow and Vladimir regions and flows into the Oka River above the city of Nizhny Novgorod. Before Nizhny Novgorod along the Oka - 86 km. Total length of the river 686 km. In the upper reaches near the village of Pirogovo reservoir (1937), through which the Moscow Canal passes. Reservoir area 15.8 sq. km, length 25 km, width about 1 km. The spill over the floodplain is small. Pine and mixed forests, shrubs along the banks.

The section from the source to the village of Gorodishche - 229 km.

In high water, the route can be started near the village of Balkashino, located on the left bank of the Klyazma. You can get here from the Radishchevo platform of the Moscow-Tver railway line and then by car to the village of Durykino, 4 km, and then walk to the water for about 1 km northwest along a forest path. The width of the river here is 3-5 m, the banks are initially open, and below the village of Nikolskoye, located on the left bank, are wooded in places. Near the village of Mendeleevo, located on the right bank, a bridge highway Kryukovo-Lyalovo. A bus runs here from the Kryukovo station of the Moscow-Tver railway line (8 km), but you can start the route from here only in high water. The steep wooded slopes of the banks rise high up, especially the right one. On the clearing of the left steep bank stands the village of Klushino. Below, in front of the village of Vladychino (on the left bank) and the village of Poyarkovo (on the right), a bridge crosses the river, which may require a run-out. We pass the villages of Lunevo, Zhigalovo (vehicles from the Skhodnya station of the Leningrad direction, 7 km), Shemyakino on the left bank, the mouth of the left tributary of the Meshcherikha. The Klyazma flows here to the south mainly in open banks. Behind the village of Isakovo (on the left bank), a forest approaches the right bank of the river, and below the village of Novoselki (on the left bank), there is a forest on the left bank. Klyazma turns to the east. Near the village of Melkisarovo (on the right bank, bus from the metro station Rechnoy Vokzal Moskvy, 11 km) bridge of the highway, below which the right bank of the river becomes high, steep, wooded. Before flowing into the Moscow Canal, the river has a general eastern direction, flowing past the villages of Svistukha, Klyazma, Ivakino, Yakovlevo.

When entering the Moscow Canal, one must be careful: there is a busy movement of high-speed ships. We are sailing outside the fairway near one of the banks. Klyazma flows into the canal on the left, and from the right bank of the canal by 2.5 km a bay stretches, which approaches the Vodniki platform of the Moscow-Savelovo railway line. We continue our journey along the canal, which after 3 km after the confluence of the Klyazma, it passes into the Klyazma reservoir. To the left at the beginning of the reservoir is the village and Khlebnikovo station. We pass under the bridges of the railway line of the Savelovsky direction and Dmitrovsky highway. It is better to go closer to the southern shore of the reservoir past the villages and piers of Khlebnikovo, Gorki, Novoaleksandrovo, Troitskoye, Povedniki, Podrezovo, Pirogovo. You can drive up to the piers on high-speed boats from the northern river station of Moscow. By north coast reservoirs, the village of Novoseltsevo is located at the entrance to the continuation of the Moscow Canal, the villages of Chiverevo and Ostashkovo, the picturesque Bay of Joy, the village of Sorokino, the Klyazminskoye Reservoir tourist boarding house. The length of the path along the reservoir is about 15 km. There is a busy movement of ships, yachts, motor boats.

The dam, which forms the reservoir near Pirogovo, is better to be enclosed along the left bank. Run-off length about 70 m(passage on the dam is prohibited). Water level difference before and after the dam is about 10 m. The width of the Klyazma below the dam in low water is about 20 m. Below is a highway bridge immediately, the passage is free, but after 300-400 m there is a run-off of the footbridge (a metal truss in the water on the right, piles of the old bridge on the left).

The shores here are open, the right bank is meadow, but you can set up a camp. Below the right bank rises, on the left bank the buildings of the factory and the village of Proletarskaya Pobeda open. The passage under the concrete bridge is free. Below the bridge, the river overgrows with algae in summer, the footbridge is passed afloat in low water. A forest grows on the right bank behind a strip of meadow. At the bay, a good one approaches the left bank Pine forest. Soon, near the village of Cherkizovo, a water conduit crosses the river, followed by a highway bridge. The right bank is high, steep and wooded, without bivouac sites, on the left it is meadow. Two kilometers later, on the left bank, the buildings of the Moscow Technological Institute appear, on the right bank of the building of a textile factory. Here the river is blocked by a dam that creates backwater and a footbridge. Portage of the dam and bridge along the right bank about 50 m. Under the concrete road bridge just below the free passage. A church opens from the bridge in the village of Testilshchiki. Both banks here are meadow, open. The road runs on the left. A pedestrian bridge has been thrown across the river against the birch undergrowth on the right bank. The river turns gently to the right. On the right high bank of the building, hidden by trees: the left bank is low, meadow. In front of the railway line of the Yaroslavl direction, a wooden bridge will be carried along (along the left marshy bank), followed by a short bridge. Here, not far from the Tarasovka platform (1.5 km, on the right bank) and Klyazma (1.5 km, on the left).

The width of the river here is about 20 m, depth is greater than 1 m. Below the coast are densely populated, many cottages. We soon pass under the highway bridge and the bridge of the Bolshevo-Fryazino railway line. Bolshevo (on the right bank), Gorki (on the left), Zagoryanskoe (on the right) follow. Below, after a section, a lake-like expansion of the river, the Ucha flows into the Klyazma on the left. Then Shchelkovo opens with the remains of a large dam. With sufficient water, a passage near the right bank is possible. In front of the bridge of the Fryanovsky highway - the village of Potapovo, below the bridge - the village of Turabyevo (on the left bank). We pass a small dam near the village of Amerovo (on the left bank) in the middle. Below the village of Zhozhino on the left bank and the village of Aniskino on the right. In the village of Svedlovsky (on the left bank) there is a large dam, run-out 50 m it is more convenient to do it on the right bank. We pass the village of Osevo, and after 4 km the city of Losino-Petrovsky on the right bank, near which the remains of the dam are in the channel. Soon there is another dam in front of the bridge near the sanatorium "Monino", which can be passed along the left bank. Below, the Klyazma receives a large left tributary of the Vor, below the mouth of which the river passes under a highway bridge near the village of Novinki on the right bank.

The Klyazma flows further to the southeast past the initially steep right bank to the village of Balobanovo through open populated areas. At Balobanovo (on the right bank), a low bridge (on the right) will be carried out. 3 remains to the large dam near the village of Obukhovo (on the right bank). km. In front of Obukhovo - the village of Bezdekhovo (on the left), the passage of the dam near the left bank or the run-off on the left. The river here turns sharply to the southeast and northeast and goes to the village of Stulovo (on the left bank), where, after passing under another bridge, it turns to the southeast. Below on the right is the mouth of the Shalovka tributary and the village of Petropavlovskoye on the right bank, where there is a convenient place for a bivouac. The river flows further to the east past the villages of Yelnya (on the left bank), Novye Psarki (on the right bank), Oselok (on the left bank) and smoothly goes southeast to the city of Noginsk, which stretches along the river for several kilometers. At the exit from the city, the Lavrovka and Chernogolovka tributaries flow into the Klyazma from the left. Behind the railway bridge at the mouth of the left tributary of the Zagrebka is a good place for a bivouac. The river goes further south to the Uspensky, where the last dam on the river blocks the path, a drift along the left bank.

Below the left bank is very picturesque, covered with forest. The Klyazma here flows east along the Gorky Highway, crossing it in front of the village of Bogoslovo, takes Sherna on the left, going south and southeast to the city of Pavlovsky Posad. There are no villages in this section along the banks, the river becomes a little wider (50-60 m). Pavlovsky Posad is located mainly on the right bank of the river. Below the Klyazma passes under the bridge of the railway line to Elektrogorsk and again flows in general eastbound past the villages of Kovrigino and Demidovo on the left bank. Having received the tributaries of the Drezna on the right, and then the Vyrka on the left, the Klyazma expands to 75 m turns to the northeast to the city of Orekhovo-Zuyevo, where it forms a bay. Below the city, the river flows to the northeast, passes under the railway bridge of the Alexandrov-Orekhovo-Zuevo line, the mouth of Kirzhach and enters the Valdimir region near the village of Gorodishchi on the left bank.

In the Moscow region, the Klyazma flows in a very populated and mostly open area through Shchelkovo, Noginsk, Pavlovsky Posad, Orekhovo-Zuyevo, but you can always find acceptable places for parking here in coastal bushes, trees and groves, far from the villages. There is a railroad along a considerable stretch of the river not far to the right. On the left, an undulating plain descends to the river valley, cut through by the winding rivers Vorey and Shernaya.

In the middle and lower reaches of the Klyazma, there are many settlements, working settlements, cities and enterprises. But there are significant sections of the river without a population. The river, in some places winding strongly, in places making large bends, flows in high hilly banks, the height of which rises towards the mouth. The hills on the right bank are especially high in the area of ​​the cities of Vyazniki and Gorokhovets, for example, the Gorokhov heights (from 73 to 108 km from the mouth). The shores are almost everywhere covered with coastal forests, with the exception of areas of large cities.

Steep hilly banks cut by ravines, covered with forests, groves and copses make the river very picturesque. There are many oxbow lakes and coastal lakes in the middle reaches of the river.

Particularly picturesque are the left banks within the Klyazminsky State Reserve(from 162 km before the confluence of the left tributary Tezn - 136 km from the mouth of the Klyazma River).

Below the city of Gorokhovets, beautiful beaches interspersed with groves stretch to the mouth. Throughout the river, the choice of places for bivouacs and day trips is not difficult.

Canoeing (and boating) trips should begin no higher than the mouth of the Kirzhach River (Usad station of the Gorky railway). From this point, the river is passable for kayaks to the very mouth in all directions. summer months. From the city of Kovrov (190 km from the mouth) the Klyazma River is navigable during the entire navigation period.

The width of the river ranges from 50 to 100 m(sometimes 150 m). Since the Gorky railway runs along the river, it is possible to divide the entire route in the middle and lower reaches of the Klyazma River into separate sections and choose any of them for kayaking or sequentially pass them in different time depending on the capacity of the tourist.

Length of downstream routes:

• Station Usad - the city of Petushki - 45 km.
• The city of Petushki - the city of Sobinka (Undol station) - 80 km.
• The city of Sobinka - the city of Vladimir - 52 km.
• The city of Kovrov - the city of Vyazniki - 100 km.
• The city of Vyazniki - the mouth of the Klyazma - 66 km.

Total length about 470 km.

You can finish the route at the Gorbatov pier on the Oka River, 8 km below the mouth of the Klyazma River.

There are natural and artificial obstacles on the Klyazma River.

Rocky ridges that create rifts with sharp stones that are difficult to pass at low water, while steep banks make it difficult to carry. Careful wiring of kayaks may be required.

• The first ridge is 50 long m near the mouth of the right tributary of the Ushma River (about 30 km from the city of Petushki). It is possible either to pass in a kayak under the right bank or to navigate along the left.
• The second ridge is about 150 m around 25 km below the city of Vladimir, at the first steep bend, passing the factory on the left bank. Canoeing is possible on the left bank.
• Third row 40 long m below second at 10 km. Passage is possible on the left bank.
• Fourth row about 30 m at 15-16 km below the village of Penkino, passing a large island. The current is rough, wiring is possible near the left bank.

Floating bridges are available in the following locations:

in the city of Kovrov, at the Glushitsy pier (at 63 km below the city of Kovrov), at 9 km, below Metega pier, (67 km below the city of Kovrov), in the city of Vyazniki (we pass near the right bank). Near the mouth of the Lukh River (at 15 km below the city of Vyazniki), in 2 km below the Perovo pier, (at 22 km below Vyazniki), Slobodinsky Bridge (at 5 km below Perovsky), Sumarokovsky bridge (in 4 km below Sumarokovo).

Wood burning at 16-18 km below the city of Sobinki.

In addition, in many places the river bed is crossed by pile bridges, which are passable, but require attention. There are also ferry crossings.

Transport: All starting and ending points of routes along the lower reaches of the Klyazma River are located on the Gorky Railway:

• Usad station (101 km from Moscow), from the station to the river 1 km;
• station Petushki (125 km), to river 1 km;
• Undol station (161 km), to river 3 km(there is a bus to Sobinka);
• station Vladimir (191 km), to river 1 km;
• Vyazniki station (326 km), to the river 6 km;
• Kovrov station (225 km), to river 1 km.

It should be borne in mind that suburban electric trains go only to Petushki station, long-distance trains go to Moscow from other remote stations (from the city of Vladimir or Nizhny Novgorod).

Finishing the route at the Gorbatovo pier, you can send the kayak with luggage by steamer to Moscow, and by yourself get to Nizhny Novgorod and return to Moscow by train.

You can interrupt the journey in the city of Gorokhovets (before reaching 43 km to the mouth of the Klyazma) and return to Moscow from the Gorokhovets station by electric train. The option of the route to Nizhny Novgorod is not excluded, passing from the mouth of the Klyazma River, along the lower reaches of the Oka River for another 90 km.

Location: the Vorya River, a left tributary of the Klyazma River. The river Vorya flows through the Moscow region.

Source: near the village of Prokshino. It is formed as a river after passing through Lake Ozeretskoe.

Mouth: the Klyazma River within the city of Losino-Petrovsky.

river length: 99 km(Wikipedia) 108 km(State water register)

Average slope of the river: 0,94 m/km.(Wikipedia), 0.461 m/km(other sources)

Description of the river: The Vorya River flows through hilly terrain. In the upper reaches the river is narrow, the banks are high, steep, very picturesque. Flowing among mixed forests, so blockages are possible. There are large open areas in the middle and lower reaches. In the upper reaches, swimming is possible only in high water, and some experience is required. In its middle reaches, the river enters a wide meadow floodplain. There are many different settlements on the banks of the Vori River. In the upper reaches of the river there is a wonderful historical monument - the museum-estate of Abramtsevo. The depth of the river is small, but in high water its level can rise by 3 m and more. There are many good places for parking on the banks of the river, but they can be busy, as there are a lot of vacationers and tourists on the river, especially on fine weekends.

Route Description: For water travel, the Vorya River is suitable from the village of Arkhanovo (below the railway bridge of the Yaroslavl railway) to the mouth of the river. However, the initial section (from Arkhanovo to the bridge of the Yaroslavl highway - about 8 km) is very shallow and clogged. It can be passed through high water (after high water or heavy rains).

There are several dams operating and destroyed on the river:

• a dam near the village of Repikhovo;
• the remains of an old dam in front of the village of Golygino;
• old piles under the bridge of the Yaroslavl Highway (below Golygino);

The Torgosha River, the left tributary of the Vori, forms near the city of Sergiev Posad and flows into the Vorya at the 61st kilometer. River length 42 km, average slope 0.844 m/km. In the upper reaches, it flows through Sergiev Posad, at the Poultry Town it is blocked by a dam. It flows in high steep banks.

From Sergiev Posad to Ptitsegrad 7 km, further to the village of Zubtsovo 17 km, further to the mouth 8 km.

In high water, you can get on the water near the city of Sergiev Posad - an ancient Russian city. The foundation of the city of Sergiev Posad is associated with the emergence of the Trinity-Sergius Lavra in the 14th century. In 1920, the Zagorsk State Historical and Art Museum was founded in the building of the Trinity-Sergius Lavra. The most ancient stone structures of the monastery date back to the 15th century: the Trinity Cathedral (1422-1523), the Spiritual Church (1476-1477), the Assumption Cathedral (1559-1585).

If the reservoir located below is not yet free of ice, you need to take a bus to Ptitsegrad and go down to the water below the dam. From Ptitsegrad, the river flows south past the village of Turakovo on the left bank, turning here to the southeast to the village of Podososenye on the right bank with a church (1827). Below the river flows southwest past the villages of Koskovo and Dedushkovo on the right bank, Novoselki on the left, Okhotino and Eremino on the right. In the channel there are low footbridges, overhanging bushes, fallen trees are possible. In front of the village of Zubtsovo (on the left bank), where the highway bridge crosses the river, Torgosha receives Cheryomushka on the left. The water is getting bigger. The river bends around Zubtsovo on three sides and flows in steep wooded banks past Karimovo and Shchelkovo on the right bank, standing far from the water. Soon after the village of Lychevo, on the left bank, Torgosh flows into Vorya.

Transport: station Sergiev Posad, Yaroslavl direction. To the village of Zubtsovo - bus (from Sergiev Posad along the Yaroslavl highway 10 km and further along the country road - 4 km); departure from the village of Ptitsegrad by bus to Sergiev Posad (5 km).

The Talitsa River, the right tributary of the Vori, forms near the village of Lugovaya and flows into the Vorya at the 39th kilometer. River length 40 km, average slope 0.857 m/km. The channel is winding, width 5-7 m, depth 0.2-0.5 m in low water. Not far from the sources on the river, the village of Muranovo on the left bank with the museum-estate of E.A. Baratynsky and F.I. Tyutchev.

In high water, sports rafting can be started near the village of Talitsy on the Yaroslavl highway, at 21 km from the mouth of the river, you can get here from the railway station Sofrino Yaroslavl direction, from which to the river 3 km. Almost the entire length of the Talitsa flows in high, steep banks. Average river width 5-7 m. In narrow areas, blockages are frequent, sometimes requiring a run-out. The pioneer camp has a destroyed dam that requires wiring or a fence. The river flows east to the village of Nikolskoye (on the high left bank), then turns southeast. Below it makes a big bend, skirting the village of Vasyukovo on the left bank. The right bank is steep and high, with the villages of Bereziki, Chekmovo and Shablykino, the left one is lower. On the right bank of the highway grows mainly coniferous forest, departing from the river only at the villages and near the mouth. Near the village of Tsarevo (on the right bank, a bus goes here from Pushkino station, 20 km) near the mouth, the right tributary of the Prorvanikha flows into the Talitsa. On the left bank from the highway to the village of Nikolskoye, there are open places, further to the village of Vasyukovo, spruce grows, and below it, a mixed forest almost to the highway Krasnoarmeysk - Pushkino. All along the river there are good places for parking, but sometimes they are located on high banks. On the river near the villages there are low footbridges that need to be carried over, near the village of Tsarevo the channel is blocked by piles. From the confluence of the Prorvanikha to the mouth of the Talitsa near the village of Lepeshki, about 3.5 km.

Transport: to the village of Talitsa - transport from Sofrino, 3 km; departure from the village of Tsarevo by bus to Pushkino station, 20 km

The Sherna River, the left tributary of the Klyazma, is formed at the confluence of the Pichkura and Molokcha rivers and flows into the Klyazma near the village of Bolshoe Bunkovo. River length 89 km, average slope 0.236 m/km. The river is picturesque and deep, flows in low banks, covered in some places mixed forest.

From the confluence of the Seraya and Molokcha to the Belkovo 6 platform km, further to the village Filippovskoe 43 km, further to the mouth 40 km.

From the Belkovo station, the route of the kayak approach usually begins. You can start it a little earlier - from the Karabanovo station and, having passed the first kilometers along the lower reaches of the Seraya River, thereby extend the route by 10 - 12 km.

It is not recommended to start routes from the Stupino station and go along the Chernaya River - a tributary of the Molokcha or from the city of Aleksandrov, moving along the Seraya River - both rivers are shallow and clogged.

At the Belkovo station, the Sherna is already a significant river and is relatively full-flowing even in the summer months, which are not very dry, since the waters of three rivers merge here: the Molokcha, the Black, and the Gray.

And so we start the route from the Belkovo station of the Alexandrov-Ivanovo railway line. From the village of Belkovo on the left bank, the Sherna flows south in large western and eastern bends. The river is quite picturesque, the banks are wooded, although in the beginning they are more densely populated than in the middle course. AT 4 km from Belkovo, near the village of Belkovskaya Gorka, a demolition of a destroyed wooden dam is to be carried out, preferably along the right bank. Below on the left bank there is a good pine forest suitable for a bivouac. We pass villages on the right bank: Semenovskoye, Peregudovo, Karpovo, Vasilyevo, Dubrovka. A pine forest grows behind it on the right bank. Below the river flows to the south, without making large bends. Forests sometimes give way to copses or completely move away from the river. We pass the village of Krasilovo (on the left bank) and the village of Eltsy (on the right). There is no forest in front of the villages of Yurtsevo (on the left bank) and Naumovo (on the right bank). The Sherna now flows southwest and at a distance of 7 km to the village of Berezhki (on the right bank) in uninhabited, often open and swampy shores with not very good places for parking lots. We pass large right-bank villages: Nikulino, Filippovskoye, Dvorishchi. Against the mouth of the Melezha stands the village of Buyany, beyond which the shore is overgrown with forest. Below the mouth of the right tributary of the Melezh, the river flows south for 15-17 km in open, often swampy banks, overgrown with willow and alder, past the villages of Zubtsevo (on the right bank), Ratkovo and Zarechye (on the left), standing far from the water, overlooking the bank of the right channel of the river. Above the mouth of Dubenka there is a spruce forest, a convenient place for a bivouac. Below the right tributary of the Dubenka, the river enters high, often wooded banks. It is very winding here, along the banks there are large villages: Sledovo (on the left) and Mamonovo (on the right). Behind the village of Klitino on the right bank, the river passes under the railway bridge at Sherna station and approaches the village of Korobanovo on the left bank, where a very picturesque section begins, at the end of which, on the left bank of the river, there is a camp site near the beautiful lake Borovoe. In the village of Karavaevo (on the right bank), the dam is to be carried over, preferably on the left. Somewhat lower, near the village of Bogoslovo (on the right bank), Shernu crosses the Gorky highway, after which, after 1.5 km the river flows into the Klyazma from the left. To the left, somewhat away from the river, the village of Bolshoe Bunkovo ​​stretched along the Gorky Highway. Here, on the old "Vladimirka", the Decembrists exiled to Siberia stopped.

The Sherna River is not a popular river among water tourists. A river with a somewhat harsh nature, boring and monotonous banks, little forest, flat and low banks, many swampy. Only during the first 15-20 km from Belkovo Sherna is a rather picturesque and wooded river. With its beginning, it attracts and at the same time deceives the tourist.

Below the village of Kubatovo, the forests along the banks gradually move inland and are replaced by coastal thickets. Below the Buyany village (about 45 km below the beginning of the path) the Sherna River flows in swampy desert banks.

Below the narrow gauge railway bridge (about 70 km from the beginning of the path) begins a very picturesque section. Behind the bridge on the left bank stretched very large settlement Karavaevo, and on the left bank in the forest, the rest house "Glukhovsky".

Thus, places suitable for a bivouac can be found at the beginning of the route for the first 15-20 km and at the end, below the narrow gauge railway bridge. Very mediocre parking places are possible in the middle reaches to the village of Buyany, and bivouacs are excluded between the villages of Buyany and Zarechye.

The route ends in the city of Noginsk. To get there, you need to climb up the Klyazma River 12 km.

The total length of the route from Belkovo station to Noginsk is 100 km.

Shern has 2 dams:

• near the village of Belkovskaya Gorka,
• near the village of Karavaevo, near the mouth of the Sherna River.

Transport: You can go to the Belkovo station either by a direct train from the Yaroslavsky railway station (Moscow - Ivanovo) or with a transfer in the city of Aleksandrov to a local train (Aleksandrov - Kirzhach - Zuyevo). From the station to the river about 2 km.

You can get out of the city of Noginsk by train to the Kursk railway station (from the river to the station about 1 km).

The Seraya River, the left tributary of the Sherna, forms near the village of Ryuminskoye, Vladimir Region, and flows into the Sherna near the village of Klimovo.

We start the route in high water from the Karabanovo station of the Alexandrov - Ivanovo (Orekhovo-Zuevo) railway line, from which to the mouth 7 km. In the lower reaches of the Seraya is a narrow, winding river, flowing in large bends to the southeast. Below the village of Zelentsino, located on the left bank, it is crossed by the Moscow-Ivanovo railway line. Soon the river merges with Molokcha.

Kirzhach River

Location: Kirzhach River, left tributary of the Klyazma River. The Kirzhach River flows through the Vladimir region.

Source: confluence of the Bolshoy Kirzhach and Maly Kirzhach rivers.

Mouth: the Klyazma River (near the village of Gorodishchi).

river length: 77 km (on Wikipedia - 133 km, but this is together with Bolshoy Kirzhach)

Average slope of the river: 0,27 m / km (on Wikipedia - 0.64, this is again with Bolshoi Kirzhach)

Description of the river: Kirzhach flows through the wooded Meshcherskaya lowland. On the banks - mixed birch-spruce forests, pine forests. The banks of the river are mostly low, in some places steep. The valley is quite picturesque. Width of Kirzhach - from 10 m in the upper reaches, up to 50 m in the lower reaches. The flow rate in low water is about 1 - 1.5 km/h. There are many sandbanks and beaches suitable for swimming. There are enough convenient places for parking on the banks. The river is quite heavily populated and inhabited by “resting” people, especially its lower course (after the confluence of the Sheredari tributary)

Route Description: The route can be started from the city of Kirzhach, or from the Ileikino station. In the second case, we do not need to overcome the dam.

There are 3 dams on the Kirzhach River:

• a dam in the city of Kirzhach near the Krasny Oktyabr factory;
• GIE dam below the mouth of the left tributary of the Molodan River (about 30 km from the beginning of the journey);
• dam near the mouth, near the village of Gorodishchi.

When crossing the Gorky Highway, it is possible to arrange a small festive snack by sending messengers to the roadside restaurant Skazka for draft Lakin beer.

You can finish the trip at the village of Gorodishchi (Usad station) or, continuing the rafting down the Klyazma, at the Pokrov station.

You can see a description of the trip along the Kirzhach River.

Kilometer (km): Kirzhach - village. Ileykino, 15 - the mouth of the Molodyn River, 10 - the mouth of the Sherdar River, 18 - p. Kirzhach, 9 - mouth (Gorodishchi), 7 - Pokrov, 15.

Transport:

the city of Kirzhach - by bus from Moscow, or by two electric trains (Gorky direction, to Alexandrov);

stations Usad, Pokrov - electric train of the Gorky direction.

Location: the Shorna River, the left tributary of the Bolshoy Kirzhach River. The river flows through the Vladimir region. The main direction of the current is first northwest and then west.

Source: 5 km southeast of the village of Novofetinino.

Mouth: Bolshoi Kirzhach river (near the village of Klimkovo).

river length: 36 km

Description of the river: The shorna flows through a wooded area. On the banks - mixed birch-spruce forests, pine forests. The banks of the river are mostly low, in some places steep. The width in the area of ​​​​the village of Florishchi is 3 ... 5 m.

Route Description: The route can be started from the bridge on the road Florishchi village - Alyoshki village. A large clearing on the right bank of the river, just behind the bridge, is suitable for the slipway.

It would be interesting to start the route from the bridge of the Kirzhach-Kolchugino highway. But most likely this is a spring option with a good flood.

Description of the trip along the rivers Shorn - Kirzhach can be viewed.

Kilometer (km): bridge of the road Kirzhach - Kolchugino - the village of Florishchi, 7 km - the village of Skoromohovo, 11 km - the mouth, 6.

The Nerl River takes its source northeast of Lake Pleshcheyevo, flows eastward across the plain, then, approximately in the middle of its length, turns southeast, entering a treeless field zone, and flows into the Klyazma River somewhat below the city of Vladimir. The total length of the Nerl River is about 300 km However, only the middle reaches of the Nerl River, limited by the railways of the Yaroslavl and Kineshma directions, are of interest in terms of tourism.

The upper reaches of the Nerl are undesirable for a hike. The banks of the lower reaches of the river, from the highway bridge of the Suzdal-Ivanovo highway to the mouth, are completely treeless, open, there are almost no coastal willow thickets on them.

Very picturesque Nerl at the beginning of the route for the first 25-30 km. Down from the bridge of the Yaroslavl railway, it flows in high banks, overgrown with forest. Tops of trees hang over the water. In some places, the narrowed places of the channel are blocked by stakes, but they are easily passable (gates are left in them). Among the forests, the Nerl River flows for 70-80 km approximately to the village of Miroslavl, then the forest decreases and lower, to the village of Chernitsyno (about 10 km to the final destination - the city of Petrovsky) the river bank becomes open and treeless.

There are several dams, many low bridges. The choice of parking space is good. The Nerl River in the area under consideration is passable by kayaks and at low waters.

At low water, below the right tributary of the Shakhi River (at 15 km from the beginning of the route), a small rift is exposed - a rapid. For very low water, wiring is required.

The bed of the Nerl River is blocked by four dams:

• near the village of Luchki (about 30 km from the beginning of the journey), where the factory is located;
• near the village of Voronchikha (about 45-50 km from the beginning of the route);
• near the village of Miroslavl (about 72-75 km from the beginning of the journey);
• a dam at the final point - the city of Petrovsky, in front of which the route ends.

All dams require run-out, it is not complicated.

The length of the route from the bridge of the Yaroslavl railway to the city of Petrovsky is 120 km.

Transport: You can get to the beginning of the journey by train to Beklemishevo station (173 km) from the Yaroslavl railway station. The river is from the station in 3 km. There is a good forest here - beautiful place for the first stop. From the final destination - the city of Petrovsky, you can go to Moscow by Ivanovsky or Kineshma train. From the river to Petrovskaya station about 2.5 km.

Shakha river

Location: the Shakha River, the right tributary of the Nerl Klyazmenskaya River. The Shakha River flows through the Vladimir and Yaroslavl regions. The main direction of the current is northeast.

Source: Berendeyevo swamp.

Mouth: the Nerl Klyazmenskaya river (3.5 km above the village of Konyukovo).

river length: 65 km

Description of the river: The river flows through fields, arable land and copses. The channel near the river is not wide (near the village of Elizarovo about 4 ... 5 meters, and at the mouth 5 ... 6 meters) and not deep (about a meter). However, in places there are pools-pits with noticeably greater depths. The riverbed is heavily overgrown in places, mostly with yellow water lilies. The banks are high, steep, mostly clayey. In the descriptions of the river, it is noted that deposits of refractory and pottery clay are found along the banks.

Route Description: For rafting, most likely, a part of the river after the village of Elizarovo, about 20 km long, is suitable. I would like to note that in the Directory of Ryzhavsky G.Ya. "On the rivers and lakes of the Moscow region" 2002, the Shakha River is not marked as suitable for rafting. The beginning of the route is from the bridge near the village of Elizarovo of the Yaroslavl Highway - Yuryev-Polsky. At first, the river flows through the fields along the villages of Kliny, Veska, Bogorodskoye, Vysokovo, which follow one after another. After Bogorodsky, a forest approaches the river from the right bank. After Vysokovo, the river flows in the forests, which either come close to the river, or recede a little.

After Vysokovo, there are no more settlements on the banks of the river. There are also no resting autotourists, occasionally there are fishermen.

There are very few good parking and places for swimming. Occasionally there are blockages, rocky rifts.

Description of the trip along the Shakha River - Nerl Klyazmenskaya in 2016 can be viewed.

The main obstacles on the river: a blockage at the very beginning of the route, a bridge near the village of Vysokovo and fallen trees everywhere.

Kilometers: Elizarovo - Vysokovo, 8 - Osteevo-Konyukovo bridge, 10 - Nerl Klyazmenskaya, 2.5

Seleksha River

Seleksha River

Location: Seleksha river, right tributary of the Nerl Klyazmenskaya river. The Seleksha River flows along Vladimirskaya and a little, in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe mouth, along Ivanovo regions. The main direction of the current is northeast.

Source: west of the city of Yuryev-Polsky.

Mouth: Nerl Klyazmenskaya river (10 km above the village of Bystri).

river length: 63 km

Description of the river: In the part suitable for rafting, the river flows through forests in an almost uninhabited area. The channel near the river is not wide (near the village of Klenovo about 10 meters, and at the mouth ~ 15 meters) and not deep (about a meter). However, in places there are pools-pits with noticeably greater depths. The riverbed is heavily overgrown in places. The banks are high, steep, mostly clayey, covered with thick, tall grass.

Route Description: For rafting, most likely, a part of the river after the village of Klenovo, about 25 km long, is suitable, although Ryzhavsky G.Ya. (the reference book "On the rivers and lakes of the Moscow region") says that according to big water you can go from the village of Fedorovskoye. We start the route from the road between the villages of Sima and Luchki (immediately behind Kolenovo), where the river does not flow long along the road, about 50 meters from it. Almost immediately, the river goes into the forests, which either come close to the river, or recede a little. Forests stretch up to the mouth of the river. There is only one village on the route - Zaborye.

On the banks of the river there are no resting autotourists at all, fishermen are extremely rare.

There are almost no good parking lots, places for swimming on the river. Only at the end of the route, right behind the old road bridge, on the left bank, there is a good clearing equipped with a table, and not far away, in a ravine, a spring with clean drinking water springs up.

There are small rocky rifts along the river. Although the river flows through a wooded area, in our experience, blockages are extremely rare.

In some places, the entire riverbed was overgrown with grass. Here the flow of the river is divided into several streams with fast current, sometimes abruptly changing its direction.

A description of the trip along the Seleksha River - Nerl Klyazmenskaya in 2017 can be viewed.

Main obstacles on the river: a destroyed dam near the village of Zaborye, a bridge made of two metal boxes, where cables or a pipeline may pass (a blockage may form on the bridge).

Mileage: Klenovo - Zaborye, 8 - automobile bridge, 12 - Nerl Klyazmenskaya, 5

Location: the Polya River, a right tributary of the Klyazma River. The river Polya flows through the Moscow region.

river length: 92 km

Average slope of the river: 0,39 m/km (Wikipedia)

Description of the river: The Polya River flows through the most wooded and sparsely populated part of the Moscow region. The banks of the river are low, swampy in places. The course of the river is quite winding. The water is swampy, peaty, brown in color, not suitable for drinking. Especially after the confluence of the tributary - the Voymega River, since the industrial enterprises of the city of Roshal can discharge wastewater into it.

Route Description: The usual start of the route is from the Krivandino station of the Moscow-Cherusti railway line. About 1 to the river km. At first, the river flows through a swampy lowland. Occasionally on the shore there are small pine groves. Behind the bridge to the village of Vlasovo, the river flows in beautiful sandy banks overgrown mixed forests. There are many good camps and places for swimming. Blockages and rocky rifts can be found in this section of the river.

The banks of the river are sparsely populated, there are no resting autotourists at all, occasionally there are fishermen.

The main obstacles on the Field are blockages, which are more common in the upper and middle sections of the route. There are many oxbows in the Poli Valley. Of the artificial obstacles on the route, there is only a pontoon bridge at the confluence of the Ivanovka tributary, but it is not clear how permanent it is. Maybe he's not there every year. In 2012, at least he was there.

Bridge across the Klyazma in Vladimir

Klyazma- a river in the European part of Russia, flowing through the territory of Moscow, Vladimir, Ivanovo and Nizhny Novgorod regions, the second largest left tributary of the Moscow River Oka.

Source - at the village. Kochergino, Solnechnogorsk district, Moscow region, mouth - on the border of the Vladimir and Nizhny Novgorod regions. The length is 686 km, the basin area is 42.5 thousand km². Food is mostly snowy. Freezes in November, opens in the first half of April. Width in Noginsk - 50 m, in Vladimir - 130 m. In some places Klyazma has a width exceeding 200 m. The maximum depth is 8 m, small depth prevails (1-2 m). In some places, the river cuts through the limestone strata. The bottom is clayey, sometimes sandy.

The largest tributaries: on the left - Ucha, Chernogolovka, Vorya, Sherna, Kirzhach, Peksha, Koloksha, Nerl, Uvod, Bol, Dubna, Teza and Lukh; on the right - Fields, Sudogda and Suvoroshch (all of them, with the exception of Teza, are not navigable).

Around the village Vodniki overflows widely and forms the Klyazma reservoir - one of the largest on the channel named after. Moscow.

On the left bank between the Kovrov and the mouth of the Teza is the Klyazminsky State Nature Reserve.

Story

On the banks of the river and the entire basin, people have long settled. Archaeologists excavated sites ancient man the Mesolithic, many Neolithic, settlements of the Dyakovo culture. In later times, the shores were inhabited by Finno-Ugric Meshchers, Merya and Muroma (the languages ​​of these tribes gave modern titles many tributaries of the river), the first Slavic burial mounds were found in these places.

The development of the entire north-east of Russia, starting with the Vladimir-Suzdal principality (XII century), is connected with the river and its tributaries. At that time, the river with tributaries was used for navigation along its entire length, which made it possible to spread its influence far, and the Klyazma-Skhodnya-Moscow trade route developed an economic basis. Since the development of crafts (XVII century), the river has concentrated many paper, ceramic and especially textile industries, first handicraft, and later factory and factory.

In 1940, within the framework of the GULAG system, the construction of two hydroelectric power stations (near Vladimir and Kovrov) was planned and, due to the outbreak of war, mothballed.

In the 70s, the project of the Eastern Shipping Canal was considered.

River today

Such large cities as Shchelkovo, Losino-Petrovsky, Noginsk, Pavlovsky Posad, Orekhovo-Zuevo, Sobinka, Vladimir, Kovrov, Vyazniki, Gorokhovets grew up on the river. The river provides water to both numerous industries and residents of large settlements in the middle and lower reaches.

The river is available for kayaking from May to September.

Ecology, flora and fauna

There are protected objects of nature in the Klyazma river basin. Among them are the Shire Gora in the vicinity of Kovrov; Gorohovets mountains; island at the Steep Petushinsky district; Levitan's places near the town of Kosterevo; Klyazminsky reserve; gardens and parks near Gorokhovets; forest park "Kozmyaki" near Vyazniki; park at the village Mstera; park at the Undol; the estate of A.V. Suvorov; forest by the lake Curve Bow; sedge grove, "Prodigal Forest" and the oak forest of Zakurya near Gorokhovets; alder grove near the village of Malye Lipki and many others.

Throughout the current from the city of Shchelkovo to the full-flowing tributaries of the Vladimir region, the waters of the river are unsuitable for eating, swimming and fishing. The Klyazma is heavily polluted in its upper reaches, but still quite rich in fish (bream, ide, podust, asp, perch, pike, roach, ruff, burbot, gudgeon, bleak, chub). Nowadays, catfish and sterlet, which the river was famous for in the 19th century, are almost never found in Klyazma.

Coastal vegetation is represented various types willows and sedges, chastuha, reed, cattail, nettle, forest geranium, tripartite succession, aquatic vegetation - duckweed, water lily, egg capsule, Canadian elodea, hornwort, various types of pondweed. Grow relic plants: salvinia, water chestnut, calamus.
