The total length of Pekhorka is 42 kilometers, and the area on which the water flows is more than 500 square kilometers. The location of the beginning of the course is one and a half kilometers to the Balashikha (Lukinsky) district. Pechorka is a river rushing southward, leaving the north. The coast is full of life in the city of Balashikha and nearby villages. Pehorka approaches Zhukovsky settlement. The Moscow River takes its waves to its own. This happens at a distance of 4 kilometers near the railway station Bykovo. We learn about the features of this river later in the article.
Waterworks
The source of Pekhorka is located in Akulovskiy Vodokanal in a national park called Elk Island. The river touches its waves to the Alekseevsky pond, it is also called Bulganinsky. This contact occurs close to the national park, north of the village of Lukino.
In the nineteenth century, in the east to the village of Akatovo, a dam was constructed, stretching for 0.2 km. This structure is useful in that the course of the Pekhorka River has a fixed depth. The same goes for the full-flowing Duck.
Noteworthy are the local ponds, which they called Saltykovsky. These ponds began to form in the seventeenth century. They are located close to the places where Pechorka flows. The Chechera River directly relates to these water bodies.
Edge evolution
Toward the end of the seventeenth century, ponds have already begun to appear on Malashka (a tributary to the left of Pekhorka) and directly above the river itself. By that time there stood both a dam and a water mill, functioning together.
Pechorka is a river on which such ancient structures still stand. If we pay attention to the study of the Moscow County Plan, we will find that the existence of these buildings at that distant time is a historically confirmed fact.
In the nineteenth century there were many mills that were replaced with new textile factories. The rivers of the Moscow region supplied these enterprises with the necessary water resources for their work. Almost each of the obsolete dams was demolished and subjected to reconstruction, the size of the buildings and the productivity of the work increased.
Pekhorka-Pokrovsky, Leonovoe, Bloshikha, Akatovo acquired a dam and a water-containing structure, the vital activity of which was supported by Pekhorka. The river found Malanyin pond in its northern side. You can make out this reservoir, having appeared on the Shchelkovsky highway.
The Boloshinsky factory also acquired its own pond, in breadth it reached 0.15 km. Moving south, we will come across a body of water with a length of 0.8 and a width of 0.13 km. Many of the water bodies where Pekhorka flows into were created by human hands in the eighteenth to nineteenth centuries. Balashiha people liked to spend their free time there.
History
They found traces of an ancient settlement in the place where the water artery Pekhorka adjoins Gorenka. The river was washed by a rich settlement, where the Akatov boyars ruled. Artifacts that have come to our time from the 16-17th centuries are discovered here.
Pekhorka, like many other rivers in the Moscow region, was developed by the Slavs a very long time ago, the Vyatichs and Krivichs, who lived on these lands during the first millennium AD. The Moscow region was actively settling in at that time. The Finno-Ugric people were driven out to the north. Those who remained were forced to assimilate. So there appeared near Moscow residents as a community. In the 14-15 centuries, life here became especially lively.
Popularity among the aristocracy
The 18-19th centuries were marked by the fact that the inhabitants of the Balashikha district became famous throughout Russia. There were many nobles. Here Prince Dolgorukov and Count Razumovsky were born. Nearby lived Golitsin, Saltykov. The Alekseevsky Palace was famous for spending the time Menshikov A.D. in it, and P.A. Rumyantsev-Zadunaysky appeared in the next estate
At the height of October 1775, the empress herself arrived on the estate's territory. The reason for her arrival was the victory over the Turks in the war, which took place from 1678 to 1774. It was Pekhorka who witnessed these important visits, she united the Russian nobility and their estates. Thanks to the settlements that developed in the 18th century, they were created as a result of the estate of Pechora volost, which was the prototype of the Balashikhinsky district near Moscow.
The alleged origin of the name comes from the Slavic speech of the verb "pekh". This word means "pusher movement."
This name turned out to be part of the list of objects that were united by the General Development Plan of Moscow, drawn up during the year 1971. The construction of a shipping channel on the east side was a critical task. The Lyubertsy reservoir promised to include the Pekhorka waters in its composition.
Special Protected Territory
Plants and animals Pekhorki now live in the territory protected in a special regime, which began to be such in the late nineties of the last century. A special regime of use is applied to the surrounding land and the river itself.
Ducts and tributaries
Tributaries on the left:
-
Malashka washes the Shchelkovo region. The location of the estuary is 37 kilometers, if you follow to the left of the Pekhorka River. The length of Malashka is 430 meters, the catchment basin has an area of 21.5 square kilometers. This tributary is part of the Oka basin district. The river basin for this aquatic artery is the Oka.
-
Serebryanka (aka Checher) has a length of 7000 m. Its part is an underground collector 2500 meters long. Saltykovka is the place where the river originates, then washing the city and the region. Fenino merges Chechery with Pekhorka. And there are famous ponds. Serebryanka is partially destroyed by urbanization.
The right tributary of the Gorenka is a small river flowing through the Gorensky forest park. It flows from the waters of Lake Mazurinsky. Above it lies a road called the Volga, which previously bore the name of the Gorky Highway. The former Gorenka Post Station is located to the left of Gorenka.
The Bykovka channel has practically no current. This aquatic artery is more akin to a chain of lakes. In the 19th century, this river did not yet exist; it was born in the second half of the 20th century. Pekhorka parted with Bykovka near Mikhnev, allowing her younger sister to sail southeast. If we follow a little more than a hundred kilometers on the left along the Moscow river, we will just come across the mouth of Bykovka.
