Locations
Cave
In movie
Scene where Egor enters the dark cave with only a flashlight to light his way. He perseveres until the passage narrows so much that he has to crawl on his stomach. At the end of his journey he reaches an underground lake, and the only way to continue is to immerse himself in the water.
Real
Scene was shot in the Kungur Ice Cave, one of the largest karst caves in Russia, located in Perm Krai, near the town of Kungur. The length of the explored part of the cave is about 5.7 km, of which about 1.5 km are equipped for visiting. Inside there are numerous grottoes, underground lakes and ice formations, which are preserved even in summer due to a special microclimate. The cave is known for its unique ice stalactites and stalagmites, as well as spectacular halls such as Grotto Giant, Grotto Cross and Grotto Polar. It is a popular tourist attraction and filming is rarely done here due to the fragility of the natural formations. “Territory” was the first TV series for which official permission was obtained to film inside this cave.
Gray Rock
In movie
Scene where Egor and Tanya, looking for the hero's parents, ride an old motorcycle to the river. Egor still has difficulty moving and feels weak after falling into the swamp, but there is no time to recover - there is a long journey ahead. He realizes that they need to move towards Grey Rock, because that is what the hiccup warned him about when it possessed him.
Real
Scene was shot at the rock formation “Strelny Stone” on the bank of the Koiva River in Perm Krai. It is a high, elongated rock located in a taiga area surrounded by dense forests. The Koiva River flows at its foot, having a winding channel and stony banks. For filming, a temporary wooden bridge, specially created for the scene, was thrown over the river.
Stone arch
In movie
Scene where Uncle Kolya brings Tanya and Egor to a mysterious stone archway. Yegor senses that somewhere behind it is his father. Tanya is worried about him, but he promises to return. The heroine wants to go with him, but Uncle Kolya warns that only the “heir” should continue the journey.
Real
Scene was shot at the “Tsar's Gate”, a natural formation in the shape of an arch on the Chusovaya River, located next to the “Dyrovatye Ribs” stone. The arch is a 10-meter limestone arch left from a collapsed karst cave. It is located in Perm Krai, in the area of a mountain range surrounded by dense forests. This section of the river is popular among tourists, especially rafting and hiking enthusiasts.
