From 2 600₽ per person
Description
Type: Single-day activity
Duration: 5 hours
* Kola Bay from a little-known perspective and interesting facts about the Arctic, its nature and ethnoculture.
By public transport, like the locals, you will go to one of the highest hills in the vicinity of Murmansk. During light trekking, you will explore the features of the tundra and forest tundra, and learn how the ancient Sami used plants. And from the top you will discover a fabulous view of the bay, the city, endless distances with chains of lakes and even see the Barents Sea.
Murmansk — Mishukovo: an unexpected journey.
We will meet at the Forecourt in Murmansk, buy tickets for a commuter bus and hit the road. As a rule, the transport is half-empty, so nothing will prevent us from comfortably accommodating and communicating along the way. Let's get to know each other better, exchange travel stories, and, of course, I'll be happy to tell you about our harsh but beautiful region — the fantastic Arctic.
Easy trekking and picnic at the top.
Upon arrival, we will begin a simple 2-hour ascent to Mishukova Hill (260 m). You will visit two natural areas: you will pass through the forest tundra, small marshes and climb into the tundra, completely overgrown with mosses and lichens. Appreciate the expanses of the Murmansk surroundings with lakes and a ridge of hills, see the bay with ships and be able to take landscape pictures. And at the top you will relax, drink tea made from local herbs, have a snack and set off on your way back.
The history of the North.
Along the way, you will hear a lot of interesting facts about the nature and ethnic history of the region, which I have been collecting for ten years. I will tell you about all the plants on the route, how the indigenous population — the Sami — used them, what of this knowledge can be applied now and much more!
The tour always starts at 09:20.
