      • The hill is a moraine mound piled up by the edge of the last glacier.
      • In clear weather you can see 30–40 km from the top, including Petersburg's southern districts.
      • In September 1941 the Germans took the hill and turned it into a stronghold for shelling the city.
      • In the 18th century Voronya and Orekhovaya hills were not distinguished and were called a single Dudorova Hill.
      • The slopes preserve relict hazel thickets and pines 100–150 years old.
