Rugged by the arteries of rivers and dressed up in green forests, Bashkiria always hospitably welcomes tourists. Amazing them with its natural beauties, pristine innocence and wide open spaces, it gives an unforgettable vacation. This is usually rafting and fishing. The Belaya River is very famous for such types of recreation . Bashkiria, which has a mass of rivers scattered throughout the territory, as if with an invisible hand directs all streams into this great and mighty reservoir.
general characteristics
White reaches a length of about one and a half thousand kilometers. Being the left tributary of the Kama, it is in no way inferior to it: neither by the wealth of resources, nor by the purity of its waters. The foot of Mount Iremel is the source of the river. Belaya, Bashkiria - these concepts are closely intertwined. After all, this fertile land is surrounded by a water artery along its entire length.
Locals call it Agidel, which is translated from their language and means "white." She crosses the
Ural Mountains, tangled in the labyrinths of their rocks and ledges. White is no different from other Ural rivers, except that the exotic and the complete absence of civilization attract tourists. Its landscapes are woven from deep gorges, dense thickets of forests and mysterious rocks.
In winter, all this beauty freezes. Around the middle of November, it is covered with a crisp ice crust, which sometimes holds until April. Eight cities are located on the Agidel River , including the metropolis of Ufa. The Belaya River is also famous for its reservoirs. Bashkiria here has two such structures (built, despite the protests of the community): in the city of Beloretsk and in the village of Yumaguzino.
"Royal Halls"
So beautifully and poetically tourists call the beginning of Belaya, the first third of its length. Rocky cliffs and hills running upwards frame it along its entire length, creating the atmosphere of the “far-away kingdom”. Agidel ruffles and worries about the rapids and rifts, but overcomes them quite quickly and briskly. Pebbles and sand cover its channel and coastal areas of land. Often the forest is fused with a water artery, so lagging logs and firewood are common things for this river. They do not spoil its appearance at all, on the contrary, they bring a “twist” to the picture, so skillfully painted by nature.
Lovers of fishing rods and spinning rods have always attracted the Belaya River. Bashkiria, fishing and delicious fish soup on a bonfire are closely interconnected and it is impossible to imagine this "trio" without at least one component. Royal houses - the place for this type of vacation is inappropriate. The fish here bite weakly, but the landscape pleases the eye. Those who are important to enjoy nature, choose this place. Those who want to enjoy a full bucket of caught perches are sent to others.
The Golden Mean
Fishermen's favorite place is the middle section of Agideli. Wandering in the mountains of the Southern Urals, it turns southwest. But, freed from the mountain shackles, he flees sharply to the north. The capricious and wayward river Belaya. Bashkiria rightly considers her his obstinate daughter, who becomes meek and affable, if you go to her with goodness and learn the art of pacification.
Fishermen have this skill, so they go safely to this section of Agideli, which stretches from Meleuz to the city with a million people - Ufa. They catch fish here for a donka, a
fly fishing rod and a fishing rod with a float. But the most popular way of fishing is, of course, posting with a wallet. Using these methods, you can get a rich catch of ides, scavengers, and boomers.
The place here is really not very picturesque, but quiet and calm. Everywhere there are small settlements where you can replenish the supply of products. On the banks of the river you can often see entire tent cities, which are broken not only by fishermen, but also ordinary tourists who come here to rest from the dust and noise of large cities.
From Ufa to the mouth
This is the last, third, segment of Belaya. On this site, it becomes even wider and deeper. Crossing a huge city, the waterway looks magnificent, as if she is the mistress in this metropolis. On both banks you can see a string of fishermen standing with fishing rods and talking peacefully about something. Many in just one morning can pull out more than five kilograms, usually it’s a mess and an ide.
In a more remote area, there are deep pools and pits in which catfish love to hide. If you specifically go hunting for them, it is unlikely to catch prey. This is a disadvantageous business. But sometimes there are lucky ones who manage not only to catch a catfish, but to pull out a whole giant. There was a case when in this place one man caught a 35-pound individual, one and a half meters in length.
On this site there are crossings, boats and recreation facilities with a noisy crowd of tourists. But the fish is not afraid of all this and eagerly pecks. Generous catch river Belaya. Bashkiria, the vacation in which is represented not only by fishing, also pleases visitors with excellent rafting and other entertainments.

White is also a witness to many historical events, and especially popular uprisings. Emelyan Pugachev and Salavat Yulaev trampled its shores and washed in the cool waters. By the way, when branching Belaya from Kama, one can notice a different shade of rivers. Agidel is much lighter, it seems that a lot of milk was poured into the river.
