Photo journey to the distant lands for Living Water to a mystical castle
From 16 000₽ per group
Description
Type: Single-day activity
Duration: 5 hours
* In a comfortable off-road vehicle with a professional photographer, we will go to a picturesque gorge surrounded by high mountains, the slopes of which are covered with a variety of subalpine meadows, and forests rise nearby, creating a special microclimate and a truly fabulous landscape. In clear weather, Elbrus is perfectly visible through the valley. A stormy mountain river flows along the bottom of the gorge, and next to it a narzan "boils", turning its waters red. Modern scientists are convinced that these places were mentioned in the old Russian fairy tales about living and dead water.
In this wonderful place, we will find an abandoned castle – mystical in appearance, but very fitting into the harsh beauty of the Northern Elbrus region, we will learn incredible legends and reliable facts about this place.
We will return from this trip pleasantly tired and completely refreshed... The inspiration you receive will be enough for many years to come!
At the same time, 2-3 weeks after the tour you will receive professional photos that will delight you and remind you of these wonderful places. You might even want to decorate the walls of your house with these photos, like paintings. Such photos are the best souvenir that you could bring from the Caucasus!
Our route:
We will drive along one of the most picturesque roads in Russia and the world. The road itself, with its serpentines and passes, is an amazing adventure and a great photo zone where you can jump, run and lie down.
We will stop at the Shajatmaz plateau, see a real mountain observatory, and admire the magnificent views of Elbrus and the Greater Caucasus Range.
The main destination of our trip is the Narzan Valley. Here we will taste more than 15 species of narzan, bursting with a spring from the ground, stroll through a mountain gorge, find an abandoned castle and, of course, take a lot of picturesque pictures.
On the way back, we will stop at an observation deck with views of the KMV and the Laccolith mountains. You will see from a bird's-eye view what the foothills of the Caucasus Range and the 2nd most important resort in Russia look like.

Starting point
* We will meet in Kislovodsk. We will pick you up from your hotel/sanatorium, or we will arrange a meeting place that is convenient for all participants. The exact meeting place will be known after booking. I recommend that you think over your image, taking into account two important conditions: 1. You will be in this image in your amazing photos. You can consider making minor changes to your image for more diverse shots. 2. The weather in the mountains is very changeable and more aggressive - in summer it can be cold in winter, and in winter it can be hot in summer. Plan your wardrobe so that you can put on or take off something extra if necessary. Be sure to take sunglasses and use sunscreen. You may need cash on the trip. We will have lunch far away in the mountains, where there may be no connection and no possibility to pay with a card.Finish point

Привет. Мы — семья Кордонских. Я — Алёна, гид-экскурсовод Национального парка «Кисловодский», в прошлом — организатор MICE-мероприятий. Мой муж — Константин — официальный фотограф НП «Кисловодский» и один из лучших фотографов КМВ.
Девять лет назад мы приехали в Кисловодск на полгодика «перегрузится», но прикипели душой к этим прекрасным местам и остались здесь жить.
Все эти годы, мы влюбляли в Кисловодск и его окресности наших друзей и близких. Используя мой прошлый опыт организации международных инсентив событий, в команде организаторов мы создавали крупные корпортаивные мероприятия в горах и индивидуальные программы отдыха и развлечений.
С тем же трепетом и восхищением, опытом и профессионализмом мы влюбим и вас в этот сказочный край!
