For me it is not simply a long and twisted staircase named after Stalin's favorite pilot, but a site for a long-distance run. Yes, yes! They organize a race once a year - when they run up and down. ...
Lovely view of the Volga and most of NN from the top. Careful going down, a little slippy in February. Challenge: take the steps two at a time all the way up! Lung busting
Wonderful views
What a great workout climbing all those stairs With every flight of stairs completed turn around and admire the view to catch your breath
Under Repair, but Sill Attractive
Although this famous staircase was being reconstructed, it was still interesting and attractive. Now best viewed from the embankment.
Site of endurance run

Stairs
A giant set of stairs, named for a soviet test pilot, whose statue is at the top. A great workout if you're climbing up
