It starts on the outskirts of Belogorsk and follows through several mountain villages along the Tanasu River valley almost to the upper reaches, where it turns east, climbing up the Kok-Asan-Bogaz [5] (or Alikot-Bogaz [6] ) pass with a height of 570 m. Approximately 2 kilometers after Krasnoselovka, the asphalt pavement ends [7] and further, to Privetnoye , the highway is a narrow (with a carriageway width of 3–3.5 meters [8] ) rocky mountain road of poor quality, sometimes quite dangerous, with a length of 13 kilometers . The road is one of the most picturesque in the Crimea, in the 1930s the local historian Polkanov left such a description:
 | The road is extremely picturesque, all the time winding along a gorge covered with forests and wild harsh rocks. Her character is not Crimean and is very reminiscent of the Caucasian mountain roads with its landscapes [7] . |  |
History
The short road from the Biyuk-Karasu valley and generally the steppe Crimea to the south-east coast has been known since antiquity, perhaps at first it was just a pack trail [7] . The first documentary evidence of the road is found in the correspondence of the last consul of Soldaya, Christoforo di Negro, and dates back to 1470, in connection with the case of the Guasco brothers - owners of the Choban-Cule castle , who, among other things, tried to gain control of the trade route to Karasubazar [9] .
The road is described in the work of Peter Simon Pallas "Observations made during a trip to the southern governorates of the Russian state in 1793-1794"
| A road that is very inconvenient for arb, crosses obliquely over the mountains, can have more than thirty miles in the direct direction from Uskut to Karasubazar. She goes straight north, climbing the valley ... [10] . |
In its present form, the road was laid in 1832 [7] , and as a highway, paved with gravel, to the pass, was built in 1914 [11] . In Soviet times, the highway was expanded, some turns were straightened, and overhanging cliffs were blown up in some places [7] . During World War II , the 2nd partisan region was located in the surrounding forests, and the Crimean partisans of the Ichkinsky detachment often attacked the invaders on the road. On the site, below the pass towards the sea, there is a site called "Horseshoe" - the highway goes around the rock along the felling, on the other hand there is a cliff. Several operations were carried out here, about one of which a German officer wrote in his memoirs [ which one? ]
| Partisans threw grenades at the head and last cars. They caught fire. Other cars and armored personnel carriers had nowhere to go. The road is narrow. On one side are high cliffs. And on the other - a cliff. The soldiers began to jump out of cars and try to hide in roadside bushes, jumping into them from the run. But green bushes hid the edge of a high cliff, into which dozens of people began to fall. Almost all of them died. |
Asphalting of the road section was made in 1976-1982 [12] .
