This is our last tour through the mountains of North Ossetia. In conclusion, we are going to the most far location of North Ossetia, but probably the most beautiful one… Digora gorge.
Digora gorge is located in the Urukh river basin, 120 kilometers from Vladikavkaz.
It should be noted that Ossetians are generally divided into three sub-ethnic groups: the Digors, the Irons and the Kudars. So, Digora gorge is the main place of residence - Ossetian-Digors.
After almost two hours of driving we reached the settlement of Chicola, one of the four largest villages of Digoria, and the administrative center of the district. The other three are Digora, Dur-Dur and Lesken.
The Akhsinta gorge is the deepest gorge in North Ossetia
In Ossetia there are two monuments to Dzuar Uastyrdzhi - the most influential celestial body of the Ossetian pantheon. I have already remembered one of them, standing at the very beginning of Alagir Gorge, the link to the video is in the description, the second monument, also on a horseback, though smaller, but definitely not less significant, can be found here, in Digora Gorge, just four kilometers from the Devil’s bridge over Akhsinta Gorge, which we have just visited.
The monument is made of bronze and was erected in 2015 on the highest rock above the Urukh River.
The weight of the monument is 13 tons, the height is six meters. The author of the sculptural composition is a well-known Ossetian sculptor, Sosyev Vladimir Borisovich.
So, Digora gorge is the northern part of the main Caucasus mountain range, Iraf district, Urukh river basin. By the way, the Urukh is the largest river in Digoria... Its length is 104 kilometers. Translated from Ossetian language Urukh meaning Wide.
Since the Digora Gorge is the farthest from the republic capital Vladikavkaz - 120 kilometers - the way here is a bit more backbreaking than, for example, to the Tsey Gorge, but it's definitely worth it! Amazing beautiful views, many impressive monuments of Ossetian history - high settlements, towers, crypts...
Interestingly, as a native of Vladikavkaz who lived in Ossetia until the age of 27, I never bothered to visit Digora Gorge. Precisely because it is so far from the capital of the republic. It was the first, very bright and impressive acquaintance with the amazing corner of North Ossetia - Digora Gorge.
MATSUTA village
In Matsuta village we went to the last store on our way ... further there will be no such opportunities to buy cookies and ice cream ...
The name of the village Matsuta in the Ossetian language means "Go no further" According to one version, this name is due to the fact that in the 18th century there was a plague epidemic, as a result of which the population of Ossetia decreased sharply.
Here there was a quarantine post, beyond which it was strictly forbidden to go ...
Here you can admire another interesting art object, "The arrows of the Nart Soslan", based on one of the episodes of the Nart epic ...
By the way, in the village of Matsuta there is an old tomb where, according to legend, the famous Nart Soslan was buried. Of course, one can be skeptical about this fact, but in 1880 Professor Vsevolod Miller, a world-famous archeologist, actually found in this tomb the remains of the skeleton of a huge man ... Makes you think, doesn't it?
Immediately behind the crypt of Soslan a monument to the Ossetian warriors who died in World War II was erected.
