General information about Hermit's Сave (Nyrkiv)

1.5 kilometers south of Chervonohorod, in the Pustelnya tract, there is a small grotto carved out of a travertine rock.

Before the Second World War (according to other sources, at the end of the 19th century), a hermit monk lived in the cave, who was engaged in stone carving. A statue of Saint Onuphrius, carved by a hermit, has been partially preserved.

Part of the cave was destroyed by a landslide.

Three statues of the Mother of God are installed above the spring at the approach to the hermit's cave. The waters of the spring flow down from the rock in thin streams of the waterfall "Maiden's Tears", around which a special microclimate with unusual vegetation has formed.

It takes about half an hour to hike from Dzhurynsky Waterfall. Car access is ...

It takes about half an hour to hike from Dzhurynsky Waterfall. Car access is possible from the side of Ustechko village.

За 1,5 кілометри на південь від Червоногорода в урочищі Пустельня є невеликий грот, вирубаний у травертиновій скелі.

До Другої світової війни (за іншими даними, в кінці XIX століття) в печері жив чернець-самітник, який займався різьбленням по каменю. Частково збереглася вирізана відлюдником статуя Святого Онуфрія.

Частина печери зруйнована обвалом.

Над джерелом на підході до печери відлюдника встановлено три статуї Богоматері. Води джерела стікають зі скелі тонкими струменями водоспаду "Дівочі сльози", навколо якого утворився особливий мікроклімат із незвичайною рослинністю.

Піший підйом від Джуринського водоспаду займає близько півгодини. Автомобільний під'їзд можливий із боку села Устечко.
