Nice. What was your plan for if your bike broke down?
This place is 20 kilometres far from the nearest village. And the nearest villiage is 50 kilometers of offroad from the nearest asphalt. Here are some photos from this abandoned soviet military station and from the road up there.

Abandoned Antonov aeroplane


This army station was in use for nearly 50 years, giving home to numerous Soviet fighter planes of the well-known Mig aeroplane family. On average, 40 Mig-s were stationed here. The flight crew and the staff with their families lived in small flats situated nearby the base. This arrangement formed a small, closed community, separated from the rest of the area. After the Soviets left the airport, most of the old structures were demolished. Luckily, some service blocks. equipment, a fire truck and a lonely Antonov aeroplane somehow still survived.
