The "Formula of active recreation" 4 nights

There is a possibility of 2-, 3-, 4-bed accommodation. Each room has a bathroom, TV, comfortable beds, wardrobe, table, chairs, as well as bedding, towels, hand soap.

Parking, cafes, barbecue areas, gazebos are available on site. The base is located in a mountainous area, there is no electricity, everything is powered by generators, so there may be technical interruptions in the operation of the power plant at night from 00:00 to 06:00.

There are no kettles or hair dryers in the rooms, as the power plant cannot withstand the simultaneous activation of even 2-3 hair dryers/kettles as an additional load. But you can always take a hairdryer for temporary use at the reception, and order tea or coffee at the cafe.

There is no Wi-Fi in the rooms. Only in the cafe on the territory of the base.

It's important to know

Personal equipment you need for the tour
  • documents: Russian Federation passport (internal) and medical insurance policy;
  • bank card (shops have card payments, many souvenir shops accept transfers);
  • cash (to pay for the transfer, additional services in the form of baths and massages, for buying souvenirs and gifts in stores where there is no Internet for transfer payments). There are ATMs in the village;
  • medications prescribed by your doctor. Additionally, we take "from the head", "from the stomach", antispasmodics, and allergies.
  • a small backpack for 20-30 liters — it is convenient to take things with you for a walk.;
  • tourist seat (hob) with foil and elastic band, price from 250 rub.;
  • polarized sunglasses are better because they protect the eyes from white snow.;
  • A poncho raincoat must be thick: cellophane ones for 100-200 rubles will not last a day.;
  • swimming trunks/swimsuit and flip-flops for thermal springs and walking around the room;
  • hiking gaiters or flashlights for feet from mud, rain and snow, the price is 800-1000 rubles., a useful thing for winter in the mountains;
  • hermetic package for phone and photo and video equipment;
  • refillable water bottle or small 500 ml thermos bottle optional;
  • trekking poles are optional. If you have a problem with your knees, hip joints, or ankles, they will help you a lot. If your sticks don't fit in your luggage, don't worry — we'll give you sticks at the base for the whole week of your vacation.;
  • hygienic lipstick or lip balm is a must for both boys and girls — from the wind and the sun;
  • sunscreen SPF 50+ (snow in the sun can cause sunburn and even sunburn);
  • a flashlight with spare batteries.

Shoes must have two pairs:

  • the first pair consists of high waterproof and warm boots, the best solution is rubber insulated EVA boots (liner up to -20 °C). If you have trekking shoes, take them.;
  • The second pair is winter or mid—season shoes with non-slip soles.

Clothing should protect you from wind, rain, snow, sun and mechanical damage. We recommend specialized clothing for tourism and sports made of synthetic materials. The main principle is layering: hot — undressed, cold — insulated.

  1. Winter trousers and jacket (windproof, insulated, waterproof). The ideal option is snowboarding / skiing, as it meets all the necessary requirements.
  2. A set of winter thermal underwear is optional. It can be used as a bottom layer.
  3. Warm wool socks (merino, alpaca) 2 pairs. Look at the fishing shop – they know a lot about warm clothes.  
  4. Scarf / fleece gaiter (buffy) / warm shawl – to insulate the throat and neck.
  5. The hat is warm (fleece is the perfect solution).
  6. Gloves are warm (fleece is better).
  7. A fleece jacket is a must — for all weather conditions.
  8. Warm sports/fleece suit (hoodie, pants). It is mandatory for the "lower" routes, where it is not as cold as in the mountains.
  9. T-shirts with long and short sleeves

The organizer will provide you with all the necessary equipment. Rent is included in the price.

    The glamping site is set in a beautiful, picturesque location. I’d especially like to highlight the dining - every dish was delicious, and you could tell that a lot of care went into the menu. Nothing was ever repeated, which was a nice touch. The only downside for me was that the showers didn’t always work reliably. I hope this will be improved in the future.
