A little about the boarding house

Pension "Sokolova Deserts" is located in an amazingly picturesque place, with which many legends are associated. It is generally accepted among the people that this is a blessed place in which thoughts ascend to God. Perhaps this is why in the middle of a secluded pine forest, Fedor Sokol decided to settle, to which other hermits later joined. Here they prayed for the salvation of the Russian land and asked the Almighty to cleanse human souls from evil thoughts. It is believed that after these frantic prayers, a healing spring that gave women beauty and power to men scored from the earth.

The Sokolova Deserts boarding house was opened in 1953. Part of the buildings was reserved for summer cottages of employees of large industrial enterprises Stupino. In 1996, the Ministry of Health praised the quality of water at a local source, which gave new life to the boarding house. People who longed for physical healing and spiritual purification rushed here.

• in reality, the beach is much smaller than it looks in the photo (perhaps this is due to a rise in the water level in the river), therefore, during the season it is very crowded and crowded;
