Stargazing. Taganay

12 more

The route passes through the territory of the Taganay Nature Park. Many legends are associated with these places, ancient and modern.

This hike is ideal for those who decided to go on a winter hike among the mountains for the first time. We won't have to cut through the snowdrifts at all: the trails here are wide and cleared. And the overnight stay will be in the winter forest in a cozy house.
