Ladoga coast. Hiking with tents from St. Petersburg

The food preparation for the hike is completely taken over by the tour club. We buy and package food by day and meal.

All products are natural, of the highest quality. 3 meals a day will be organized during the hike (dinner on Friday, breakfast, lunch and dinner on Saturday, breakfast, lunch on Sunday). A stew of GOST (97.5% meat) of the highest quality is added to each lunch and dinner.

IF YOU'RE A VEGETARIAN, fine! We respect and appreciate vegetarians, for them we bring all the food to readiness and put it on plates before the stew turned out to be in it. 

All food is calculated according to the norms, taking into account physical activity. So don't be afraid to stay hungry.

Additionally, you can take some nice things with you on the train, well, or just have a snack. IT is IMPORTANT that the weight and quantity of additional products be minimal.

Vegetarians can take with them something they are used to replacing meat with (soy meat, dried legumes, etc.)

Pots and all cooking equipment (saw, axe, burner, gas, kitchen utensils - everything that will be useful in this campaign) is provided by the tour club.

You only need to take a personal set of dishes: a mug, a spoon, a bowl.

It is better to choose plastic or metal dishes. Do not take glass and ceramics, they are heavy and can break.

Do not take disposable dishes either, they are unreliable.

Public equipment and food are distributed among the participants of the campaign in equal parts (that's why it's public).

We carry all the food and equipment in our backpacks for the whole hike. Therefore, there should be free space in your backpacks for them, 30 liters (about like a full package of five)

The equipment will be issued before the train departs right at the station.

You can go on this hike with a four-legged friend! Important condition: the dog is socialized, is not afraid of strangers and is not aggressive.

To participate, you must have your own tent in which you will live with your pet. The settlement of other participants of the hike in this tent will not be planned, i.e. expect that you carry it yourself or with your friends, comrades, with whom you will agree in advance to live together.

If you do not have your own tent, you can rent a separate tent from us, which will then need to be handed over in exactly the same condition in which it was accepted, i.e. to thoroughly clean it from possible wool.

You also need to prepare food, drink and all necessary conditions for the dog yourself.

Please indicate in advance in the application and the questionnaire that you are going hiking with a dog.

If you are allergic or afraid of dogs, be sure to indicate this in the pre-income questionnaire, or check with the consultant in advance whether a pet is planned in your group.

According to our custom, we start from the one who will book a place in the group first, i.e. if you are afraid of dogs, warned us about it and booked a place in the group, then you will no longer be able to enroll with a dog in this group. Conversely, if there is already a participant with a dog in the group, then we will warn the one who is against dogs so that he can decide for himself whether he is ready for such a neighborhood.

We will meet at the Finlandsky railway station in the center of the hall at 17:00 (TRIPS TO THE MAY AND JUNE HOLIDAYS START IN THE MORNING AT 09:00).

The meeting place is usually at the Finnish railway station at the scoreboard near the first ticket office. We will send you the contacts of the instructors by e-mail on the eve of the hike.

At the train station it is necessary:
1) Check in with the instructor;
2) Buy a ticket to KUZNECHNY or KAPEASALMI yourself (depends on the starting point of the hike, see the letter in the mail);
3) Get your share of food/social equipment modules from the instructor and put them in your backpack. You can take it to the train, and then put everything there.

You can also get on the train in Devyatkino, Kushelevka or get to Kuznechny by car. If you are traveling by car, please note that the hike starts at one station and ends at another, i.e. to return to the car you will need to travel one station by train.

So that we don't lose anyone, before going, you will receive a questionnaire in which you will write where you start from - we will focus on this information and keep in touch with you.

Money is needed only for travel by train. The one-way fare is 459 rubles (you can pay with a card). Even before or after the train, it can be very pleasant to drop into the store to buy a pie / soda / ice cream - here focus on your personal preferences and amounts.

The good news is that we are in for a digital detox, there will be almost no connection. We recommend switching your phone to airplane mode immediately after meeting with the instructor and taking a break from gadgets. The body will thank you, you'll see.

We go there from the Finlandsky railway station by train to the Kuznechnoye station. Departure (depending on the date) at 09:34 or 17:35, the ticket price is 459 rubles.
