Description:
It stands 1846 meters above sea level, on Mount Shimara in the Andean Range, dissected here by the deep valley of the Ansalty River. The very word “khoy” really means “guard”, and modern guides certify this yurt as almost a training camp for the best jigits in the Caucasus.
Он стоит в 1846 метрах над уровнем моря, на горе Шимара в Андийском хребте, рассечённом здесь глубокой долиной речки Ансалты. Само слово “хой” действительно значит “стража”, и современные гиды аттестуют этот юрт как чуть ли не тренировочный лагерь лучших на Кавказе джигитов.
