Hiking trip to Cape Haddock on the Kola Peninsula

We invite you to go on an exciting hike along the Titovka River valley with access to the Motovsky Bay of the Barents Sea.

Moving along the coast, you will visit several picturesque coves and come to Cape Haddock and the bay with the same name. The cape is also called Thin Nose because of its bizarre appearance.

You will see sandy coves, a lighthouse, sea cliffs, amazing views of the harsh northern coast, and places filled with history.
