Mount Bolshaya Chura is located in the southern spur of the GVH, on the territory Caucasian Nature Reserve. The sources of the Shakhe River, one of the largest watercourses on the Black Sea coast, begin from the Chura massif; the Sochi River originates from the southern slopes. Height 2250.7 m. The long Bzych ridge extends from the peak to the northwest. The eastern slopes of the massif are rocky and steep, while the western slopes have flatter shapes. They are covered with subalpine vegetation. From the Amuko ridge through Mount Bolshaya Chura you can reach the ridge of the Main Watershed Range and get to Krasnaya Polyana, bypassing the Achishkho massif.
A rather long and very beautiful ridge section begins from Mount Malaya Chura. A wide smoothed grassy ridge gradually turns into a narrow rocky grassy ridge. 200 meters below, the slopes on both sides sharply flatten out and forest is already growing there. Here and there you can see stripes of fallen trees - traces of snow avalanches. On the right you can see the vast valley of the upper reaches of the Shakhe River, closed on three sides by the Malaya and Bolshaya Chura ridges, on the lower left are the sources of the Kudo River (a tributary of the Belaya). It is here that the Belaya River turns 180°, bending around the Cherkessky ridge, and at the bend a large tributary flows into it - the Berezovaya River, so the river valley seems very wide in this place, the opposite slope of which rises up with kilometer-long cliffs of the Chugush ridge.
After an hour and a half we reach an unnamed peak of 2123 m, from which Mount Sanatornaya (2091 m), standing significantly to the left of the ridge, is clearly visible. The trail now follows the southern grassy slopes. Soon you need to cross a small stream. Further the path lies through extensive rhododendron thickets and access to a wide, gentle slope, from which you can already see the descent to the lintel in front of Mount Bolshaya Chura. The main peak of Mount Sanatornaya remains far to the left - a kilometer to the northeast. On the descent near the forest border the path becomes lost; you need to pass through dense thickets of low-growing trees. Then, along the barely noticeable path that appears again, we descend to the col (in total we drop 350 m in height).
The dam is a wide clearing overgrown with tall, dense grass, mostly ferns. In the far part of the clearing on the right you can see a tiny swampy lake. We climb 150 meters along a wooded ridge, then slightly flatten out, where the path gets lost again. All around is a low, impenetrable forest. Further the path goes along steep wooded gullies. Underfoot there is black crumbly rock - black slate. In one place there is a fork: a good path goes up to the right, you need to go along the left path. The relief here is so rugged that the majestic Chugush massif becomes clearly visible behind. The path turns to a rocky ridge, reaching the ridge, we turn left, in the direction of the easternmost peak of Bolshaya Chura. The ridge is very broken in the vertical profile, so you have to constantly climb the rock, then go down from the ledge, or go around the gendarmes. On both sides of the ridge there are cliffs of 30-100 m. Low trees and bushes mostly help - there is something to grab onto, but sometimes they get in the way.
Approximately in the middle of the ridge, in front of a high rock, the path suddenly leaves the ridge to the right. If you follow it, then after 15 meters you will find yourself on a narrow sloping grassy shelf with a lonely birch tree. Below us there is a 30-40 m vertical line, but if we go further along this shelf, we will see that the descent is still possible. Descending with backpacks is not possible here. Therefore, if there is no rope, then we return to the ridge and go around the rock on the left along a smooth 30-degree rocky shelf, holding onto a narrow crack in the rock with our hands. The further path is simple. There is a snowfield on the lower right where you can replenish your water supplies. From the clearing in front of the snowfield you can clearly see the entire ridge. Climbing onto the next bushy hillock, a view of the long and sharp Bolshaya Chura ridge opens up. Huge snowfields hang on its slopes. The path leads to the main ridge to the left of the eastern peak.
A rather long and very beautiful ridge section begins from Mount Malaya Chura. A wide smoothed grassy ridge gradually turns into a narrow rocky grassy ridge. There is a lot to fall in both directions, but if you don’t jump, then in general there is no danger. Only approximately in the middle of the section there is a two-meter ledge from which we will have to descend without taking off our backpacks. Here, taking off backpacks at all is fraught: one careless movement and the backpack flies 200 meters down.
Just two hundred meters below, the slopes on both sides sharply flatten out and forest is already growing there. Here and there you can see stripes of fallen trees - traces of snow avalanches.
On both sides of us there is a huge overview: on the right we can see the vast valley of the upper reaches of the Shakhe River, closed on three sides by the Malaya and Bolshaya Chura ridges, on the lower left are the sources of the Kudo River (a tributary of the Belaya). It is here that the Belaya River turns 180°, bending around the Cherkessky ridge, and at the bend a large tributary flows into it - the Berezovaya River, so the river valley seems very wide in this place, the opposite slope of which rises up with kilometer-long cliffs of the Chugush ridge.
Descent to the bridge between Sanatornaya and Bolshaya Chura. On the left in the clouds is Mount Achishkho.
After an hour and a half we reach an unnamed peak of 2123 m, from which Mount Sanatornaya (2091 m) is clearly visible, standing significantly to the left of the ridge (see photo). The trail now follows the southern grassy slopes.
Soon we cross a small stream and replenish our water supplies here. Then we walk through extensive rhododendron thickets, cross a steep couloir and emerge onto a wide, gentle slope, from which we can already see the descent to the col in front of Mount Bolshaya Chura (see photo). The main peak of Mount Sanatornaya remains far to the left - a kilometer to the northeast.
On the descent near the forest border the path becomes lost. We make our way through dense thickets of low-growing trees and emerge into a clean, tall forest. Then, along the barely noticeable path that appears again, we descend to the lintel (in total we drop 350 m in height).
Lost Lake before climbing Bolshaya Chura
The dam is a wide clearing overgrown with tall, dense grass, mostly ferns. In the far part of the clearing on the right you can see a tiny swampy lake. Strangely, there is no path here, although as soon as we re-enter the forest on the ascent, it appears again.
We climb 150 meters along a wooded ridge. Then there is a slight flattening, where the path gets lost again. All around there is a low, impenetrable forest.
Before the next ascent we find a path and now walk along steep wooded gullies. Underfoot there is black crumbly rock - black slate. In one place there is a fork: a good path goes up to the right, makes one zigzag along a rather steep slope and... dead ends after 50 m. Therefore, we take the left path. The relief here is so rugged that we often find ourselves higher than the trees and then the majestic Chugush massif becomes clearly visible behind us.
Soon we find ourselves on a rocky ridge. Here, apparently, it makes more sense to cross this ridge, descend into the deep ravine behind it, and from there begin the ascent to the pre-summit spurs of Bolshaya Chura. However, you can also walk along the very top of the ridge, especially since the path turns there.
