Serovo Coastal Cliff

Zelenogorsk, Ushkovo, coast between Ushkovo and Serovo

The coastal cliff "Serovo" on the shore of the Gulf of Finland between Ushkovo and Serovo is known as a place where the granite crystalline shield emerges to the surface in the "Kamennaya Gora" park. On its territory, there are remnants of the Finnish VT defensive line of 1941–1944, which consist of a strip of trenches and anti-tank dragon's teeth up to 10 meters wide. Here are also the dachas of the "Kaunis and Toivola" joint-stock company, whose intensive construction was interrupted by the events of 1917, and whose name translates as "a place of beautiful hopes". From the steep slope, where a retaining wall made of granite boulders has been preserved, a view opens onto the lower terrace and the gulf from the Corniche Boulevard.
