Wyspa. Location of the Jewish partisans base during the punitive operation Hermann

Wyspa is an "island" on Polish.
The island is located in the swamps. It is the purpose to observe Wyspa, the place where the 106 partisan detachment of Sholom Zorin was hiding during the German punitive operation Hermann.
And even now one can only get there by the bestial paths

Naliboki forest. The otters' lairs

Watering for beasts

Watering. Footprints of animals. And no one of human.
In the ditch was brown, infused on peat, swamp water.
The streams flow out from the marshes and run into a ditch.
I had to walk with the water up to the ankles.
The 5.11 Tactical ATAC® Storm Boots stood and did not fail, feet remained dry

Turn from canal to the island midst the swamps

The first vestige of civilization - abandoned concrete slabs

Path trampled by wild pigs

The goal to go along this path is to reach a height of 240, the highest point on Wyspa

Height of 240, the highest point on Wyspa

At the highest point, the wild pigs set a bed.

Further path through Wyspa

Old steel bucket - second vestigium of civilization

Wyspa. The edge of the hill

There, in the distance Krasnaya Gorka (Red Hill) and mounds

A good bench!

To relax and change batteries in GoPro

Pits that are similar to those that remain from dugouts

Strange box of blue colour

Another sign of civilization

The box turned out to be a hive

Another box that also was a hive

How does the owner deliver these beehives to these hard-to-reach places?
Hence, there must be some road somewhere

The edges in the hill similar to traces of human activity

Sands. Edge of Wyspa

Plexus twigs on a birch tree

It's time to go back.

Light of bonfire in the night

This was a bonfire, bread, meat and warm tea awaited me there
