Stargazing: Taganay. Ural Mountains

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.

Itinerary

  • Day 1 - Departure to the national park. Walking distance to the first house

    We leave early in the morning (from 05:00 to 07:00, the meeting place is the railway station, the airport) and get to Zlatoust, have lunch at the cafe "Parus" (self-paid), where they cook hand-made dumplings, dumplings with Adyghe cheese and make delicious cakes.

    We arrive at the beginning of the walking route – the central entrance to the Taganay National Park.

    We pack our backpacks and set off on the route (we walk 14 km along the lower path through Teschin tongue and Bolshaya Kamennaya River to our first house).

    Important! Everyone carries their personal belongings, a sleeping bag + 2 kg of food (groceries).

    Majestic snowy pines and fir trees greet us with the freshness of the coniferous forest, and we set off along a wide path to meet new impressions.

    In the evening, we steam in the sauna, relax, play board games, drink tea and chat.

    There is no connection, you will not be able to disappear into the phone.
