Five days of relaxation, vivid adventures and minimal communication.
In the "Berry Village" everything is like in a children's camp, only better. Small bright houses, a large area for walking, a lake, delicious food and a warm, friendly atmosphere. There won't be many people in our camp, and the squads will be small to keep the atmosphere intimate and have the opportunity to chat with everyone.
We've kept the best of our childhood: squads and parties, a quiet hour and joint creativity. We complemented all this with Karelian adventures: a trip to the Ladoga skerries, hiking and rafting, and even an afternoon snack will be made in Karelian style: tea with berries and gates.
Our every day will be filled with something active and creative. We will create a space where you can exhale, allow yourself to be open and present. Come on!
The night before departure, after dinner, we will gather for a big party, which we will close the shift with.

Ladoga skerries, musical jam and royal night
Wake up, exercise and breakfast.
Today is the final day, which means that for the fullness of sensations you need to see the most beautiful — Ladoga skerries.
We get on the boats and set off across the water to the most visible points. We will climb the "roof of Ladoga", Mount Vakhtimyaki. Here, the beauty freezes the heart.
We'll have a picnic lunch on one of the islands and return to the Berry Village.
After a quiet sleep, prepare for the evening.
The theme today is music! Let's call in musicians with Karelian instruments. Let's try to play the kantel ourselves — "Karelian gusle", and maybe something even more interesting.
We will make a joint "jam" — musical improvisation, and most importantly — we will record these tracks for tonight's "Royal Night".
After dinner, we'll gather for a big party, which will close the shift!
