Helpful reviews of trails in Russia

P. Hahn 7 months ago Eco Path Ridge of Vyaramyanselkya Wrote a trail review Eco Path Ridge of Vyaramyanselkya • Petrovskoe, Leningrad Very nice trail in a fine forest with beautiful bridges, great forest and an amazing old Finnish water station. Nice to stay at the river. Good opportunities for relaxation and barbecue. However, on the west side of the trail its a litte bit loud because of the near highway. Tu sum up, a must for every hiking fan in Russia. Pavel Kristen Davis 12 months ago Ninoskhevi Waterfall Wrote a trail review Ninoskhevi Waterfall • Lagodekhi National Park July 2022. The trail is incredibly well marked and switchbacks it's way up the hills to the falls. Take a picnic to 3njoy at the falls and look for birds and butterflies on the way. The hike from the mains road to the trailhead is long and boring but it is possible to hitch hike a ride with the locals.
