The magic of the polar night on the Kola

The polar night can be not only harsh and gloomy, but also truly beautiful! We offer an exciting snowmobile route in the middle of the polar night, when the sun has not risen above the horizon for more than two months. 

In three days you will visit the Ramzai Pass, the glacial cirques of Takhtarvumchorr Mountain, the valley of the Petrelius River, Mount Kuelporr, and, under favorable weather conditions, the Severny Rischorr and Umbozersky passes.
