Itinerary

  • Day 1 - The road to Teriberka, the Cemetery of ships, Old Teriberka

    The group will meet at 09:00 at the Five Corners Square, in the parking lot opposite the Meridian Hotel.

    After meeting with all the members of the group, you will immediately hit the road. After driving through the vast expanses of the tundra for about 3 hours, you will find yourself on the coast of the Barents Sea.

    Upon arrival, you will leave your belongings at the base and drive to the village of Staraya Teriberka. It was here that the film "Leviathan" was shot. The salty sea air and silence will be your constant companions during your walk, and you will definitely feel the amazing magic of this place.

    Today you will have lunch at a restaurant on the beach. Nearby, on the sandy beach, there is a huge swing, which offers a beautiful view of the endless ocean.

    You will walk back to the base (5 km), along the way you will see the famous Cemetery of ships. Fishing vessels of the last era found their last refuge here. Ships yearning for the ocean, and giant boulders on which the surf breaks. This place is a real paradise for romantics, photographers and all those who are not indifferent to the harsh beauty of the northern seas.

    Upon returning to the base, dinner and rest. It's time to set the table and celebrate New Year's acquaintance. Perhaps today, on the very first northern night, you will be lucky to see the Aurora borealis!
