The story of the death of a young girl in the Tsipovo conservation area excited the whole country - according to preliminary information, the tourist fell from a height due to negligence, but this version raises many questions, the answers to which should give the results of a full investigation of the terrible incident.
The nature in Tipovo is truly amazing - waterfalls, gorges, a valley, a rocky monastery whose history goes back centuries. All this attracts tourists not only from Moldova, but also from other countries. Tsypovo is often mythologized, but the places here are so beautiful and self-sufficient that they do not need legends.
Tours to Tipovo take place in rocky, rugged terrain, which is why this tourist site can be life-threatening.
Trips to Tipovo are mainly organized by private individuals, or "interest groups", and this is also a certain security risk. You will never know how professionally “your” guide is. The road to the waterfalls, which is about five kilometers in both directions, runs along a lowland between rocks covered with rose hips and dense vegetation, because of which you cannot see the pits.
There are several dangerous trails that a tourist visiting Tsypovo should know about, guide Yuri Vinogradov told Sputnik.
1. Mountain Rhino. This high hill is located on the side of the village of Horodishte.
2. Descent to the rocky monastery. The trail stretches over the cliff, it leads first through a crack, then bends around the rocks. They are cut with grottoes and caves.
3. "Devilish" source - it is located in the gorge, which was named "Gateway to Hell". There is a very narrow path that "runs away" into high thickets.

4. The Falls of the Dead - this is one of the most treacherous paths for tourists, there is a narrow path above the cliff. Because of the rock, it is not visible.
5. "Serpent Mountain" is located opposite the gorge called "Bird City". There is a very winding path, it goes up and down.
Attracts tourists and legends. The most famous of which are about the ghost of the Black Monk, about the ancient city that appears on the full moon in the valley between the gorges, the ghost, glowing balls, sparks of different colors, the choir heard from under the ground, the grave of the ancient Roman poet Ovid and the entrance to Hades, through who followed Eurydice into the underworld Orpheus.
