Rog (Russian: Рог, translated as "Horn") is a small castle ruin in the South Zagoria region of Chernarus, located on a mountaintop near the coastal village of Kamyshovo.
General[]
Rog pales in comparison to some of the other, larger, castles found throughout South Zagoria, such as Devil's Castle and Krona. Nonetheless, the ruin is frequented by many survivors coming from the south-east coastal region, most likely scavenging for supplies from the castle's tower and gateway. Another, smaller, stone building is present but inaccessible, apart from its roof by the way of some nearby stairs. A varied array of supplies can be found here, including food, guns and medieval weapons and armor.
The ruins are located on the blue hiking trail from Elektrozavodsk to Msta, and the site is equipped to facilitate hikers in the form of a hiking trail shelter.
History
Rog was presumably constructed by Duke Ivan Kozlov sometime around the 1000s/1100s. It is possible that wooden fortifications were also present at some point, with only the stone keep of the castle surviving the millennia since its construction.[1]
