Shahty (Russian: Шахты) is a city in Russia, located in Rostov Oblast. It is the second largest city in the oblast by area and the third by population. The city lies 60 km from Rostov-on-Don and 1000 km from Moscow near the M4 Don highway, though it is 6 km off the main road. Shahty is a convenient transit point if you wish to avoid entering Rostov-on-Don and city transport connects Shahty directly to and from the highway.
