The route schedule may change depending on the level of the group, the request of the group, or weather conditions.

Tourists are provided with all the necessary equipment for traveling: 2 and 4-seater catamarans, paddles, safety vests, thermal insulation mats. 

Under the guidance of an instructor, tourists participate in collecting catamarans and setting up a camp, organizing insurance and other work on the route.

Our company carries out category rafting on 4 and 2 local catamarans, which consist of 2 inflatable gondolas, a frame and a deck. Catamaran assembly, camp installation, and cooking are carried out by tourists under the strict guidance of instructors.

During the route, a continuous stay on a catamaran usually takes from 2 hours or more, with "green parking". Excursions, ascents, their time and duration are not standard and depend on weather conditions, as well as the group's capabilities. The instructor also chooses the place to set up the camp.

Do not forget that by buying a rafting ticket, you have become a member of an organized tourist group. For a good rest for all participants, it is necessary to observe discipline and maintain the route schedule. Do not complain about the rainy weather, if it has been haunting all the time. Remember that "nature does not have bad weather"!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ON THE ALLOY

·       We do not recommend drinking alcohol on a catamaran or on a bus. In addition, alcohol dulls the pleasure of traveling, and you can drink at home. During evening campsites and gatherings around the campfire, alcohol consumption is not prohibited, but everything is fine in moderation! We also recommend that you pour alcoholic beverages from glass into plastic in advance, if you still decide to take them. It will be easier to dispose of in the future.

·       If you feel unwell, have an injury or other problem, inform the instructor about it.

· Take care of your inventory and equipment. You are no less responsible for it than the instructor.

· There are cases when a catamaran runs aground. At the same time, it is necessary to get up from it in order to reduce the draft and guide the catamaran manually.

·       Enjoy traveling and nature, take pictures of everything around and enjoy life, get positive emotions and unforgettable impressions!!!

·       Move around, trying to walk in the middle of the path. Try to avoid tall grass and shrubs.

·       In the case of a walk in the woods/excursions, wear clothes with a long sleeve that fits snugly to the wrist. As well as trousers, tucking them into high boots or socks.

· We recommend using dark-colored clothing, because ticks react less to it.

· Use repellents that repel or kill ticks to treat clothing. Repellents containing the following elements: Alpha-cypermethrin and Alphamethrin are very toxic, they can only be sprayed on clothes, they are resistant to flushing, light and temperature. Reftomid taiga, acaricidal bar Pretix, Anticlimax.

Repellents with a 30% concentration repel ticks – they must contain elements such as: diethyltoluamide, dimethylthalate.
