The road of life

Oh, how the residents of the river side were tormented with access to their territory this year! Different ways they tried to get! They were taken on an air-cushion boat, on a bus through another region. Winter began to make itself felt and the rivers gradually began to open the way to the riverside: first through the river South - the way was reduced from 300 km to 120 km, and then it became possible to walk 5 kilometers and get home.

The footpath appeared in early January of this year, when the South river froze in the vicinity of the village of Koromyslovo.

That is, first you need to cross Sukhona river from Veliky Ustyug to Koromyslovo, then cross the South river, and then along the mouth of the South and the beginning of the river of the Northern Dvina, already move to the other shore and get to the coveted village of Kuzino.

Green signifies a hiking trail, and a red car ferry, which this year has problems.

Crossing the South river. It is frozen for cars, but for now you can only walk.

But even on foot not everyone will pass - only in rubber boots.

On the right there is a place with open water.

A terrible test for the residents of Kuzino.

This is how part of the village of the riverside looks like.

And that's how people go to it. A person is already walking along the Northern Dvina river.

Sukhona in the area of ​​the transition to the village of Koromyslovo.

In the distance, Dymkovo Settlement can be seen.

Today it became known that at last the pedestrian access was opened to the village of Aristovo and to the village of Kuzino. Work is under way to freeze and strengthen the automobile crossing. For so long the residents of Kuzino ​​had never been torn from their homes.
