There is a steady signal throughout the entire route. Megafon and MTS operators have a better signal.

In Karelia, a wetsuit may be required when rafting on rivers, depending on the time of year, water temperature and weather conditions. 

Here are the main situations where its use is recommended: 

• cold water (spring and early summer). In spring and early summer (May-June), the water in the rivers of Karelia is very cold, often close to the temperature of melting snow. A wetsuit will help keep you warm and avoid hypothermia if you fall into the water.;
• In summer, if the weather is rainy or windy, the wetsuit will protect against hypothermia and discomfort. This is especially true for multi-day rafting trips, when it is not possible to dry clothes quickly.;
• difficult routes with a high risk of getting into the water;
• Rivers with rapids, strong currents, or technically difficult areas are more likely to be in the water. A wetsuit will ensure safety and comfort in such conditions.;
• autumn rafting (September-October).

The cost of renting a neoprene suit is 600 rubles per day per person. You must provide height and weight data so that suits can be booked and checked for you.
