Day 2 - The highlands of the Lovozero tundra
Having rested enough after the first day of running, we will set out on our way.
Today we are waiting for a number of uncomplicated mountain passes.
Our route will run through the moderately elevated highlands of the Lovozero tundra. We won't have an endpoint as such on the second day.
Because the desire to take pictures will not let go all day. Overnight in a mountainous area.
Day 3 - Rayyavr Mountain Lake
The mountain trail of the third day leads inexorably to one of the most picturesque places of the Lovozero tundra and the entire Kola Peninsula – the inaccessible mountain lake Rayavr.
Many tourists dream of visiting this lake, but not everyone has the opportunity.
After admiring it, we will move towards the lower mountain range to our next goal.
Day 4 - The way to the Seidozer
After enjoying the views from the high cliffs, we will move to the Seidozer.
Gradually dropping the altitude, we will get into the forest area. And when we reach the shore of the lake, we will stand in a picturesque parking lot.
Day 5 - Spare day
This day is included in our itinerary as a backup, in case of bad weather conditions.
However, under favorable conditions, it is possible to take a radial (light) walk to the forester's house.
Day 6 - Along the picturesque coast of Seydozer
Along the picturesque Seidozer coast, we move towards the northern shore.
Along the way, the changing views will complement the overall experience of this mysterious and beautiful place.
The dense forest may surprise everyone, because the most interesting thing is that the shore of the Seidozera is part of a closed ecosystem and the nature here is radically different from the nature of the Far North.
Day 7 - The end of the hike
After resting and setting up camp, we set off to complete our sightseeing route.
Our way lies to the Elmorayok pass.
On the way, we will visit the transparent river, colored lakes, and the Bridge of Desires.
The program ends no earlier than 21:00.
