Soldier Mountain rises above the beach of the Sukko village from the south-eastern side. The height of Soldier Mountain reaches 186 meters. The entire surface of the mountain is covered with a dense juniper forest. It offers a beautiful view of the Sukko village and the Great Utrish village. 

The Sukko village is located in a mountain hollow between two small mountains. On the right side is the Economic Mountain (121 meters), and on the left is the Soldier Mountain. The path to the top of the Economic Mountain leads directly from Sukko Beach. People who want to walk around the neighborhood and watch the sunset in the evening climb it every day.  

It is impossible to climb Soldier Mountain from the Sukko village, as it descends into the sea by a steep rocky cliff. However, there is a walking path on the mountain, which begins at the road between the Sukko village and the Great Utrish village. From the Sukko village, the road rises steeply uphill. In the middle of this road there is a sharp turn, where a rotunda is built. There is a parking lot near it where you can park your car. 

A path begins near the rotunda, where you can walk along the crest of Soldier Mountain. The main climb takes place during a car trip from Sukko to the rotunda, so the climb from the rotunda to the top of Soldier Mountain will be only 70 meters.  

The length of the trail from the rotunda to the top of the mountain is 600 meters. From the top there is a beautiful view of Sukko Beach, Economic Mount and the sea. After that, the trail comes to a steep slope, where it is impossible to go further on foot. 
Soldier Mountain, like other mountains in these parts, consists of marl rock. It has a layered structure of limestone, chalk and clay of various colors. Juniper trees grow on the top of the mountain. They secrete a lot of phytoncides, so a walk among junipers will also be useful for health.
