Krasnaya Polyana – a Worthy Competitor to Switzerland

Krasnaya Polyana – a Worthy Competitor to Switzerland

Krasnaya Polyana today is a modern ski resort

This place is Krasnaya Polyana in Sochi. Thanks to the peaks of the Caucasus and the proximity of the Black Sea, a mild unique climate has formed here. Sunbathing in Krasnaya Polyana is possible even in winter, and the summer heat is very easy to bear. Everyone who has been here will forever remember the fabulous beauty of the mountains, the turbulent rivers rushing into the Black Sea, the blue lakes on the surface of which sunbeams play merrily.

In recent years, Krasnaya Polyana has turned into a modern ski resort that continues to develop rapidly. The length of the trails is currently 25 km, and the cable cars lift tourists 2239 meters above sea level. The slopes have different levels of difficulty, so neither professionals nor beginners need to worry – everyone will find a trail to their liking. For those who have just started skiing, the advice of an instructor will be useful. However, specialists can help even an experienced athlete improve their technique. The resort has rental points for all necessary equipment.

Hotels, inns, tourist centers and cottages are currently able to provide accommodation for 50 thousand tourists at a time. The Olymp Hotel, located in the village of Esto-Sadok, is very popular among vacationers. It is only one and a half kilometers from the ski slope. The hotel has 24 cozy rooms of various categories, furnished with modern furniture. If desired, you can sit in the bar or restaurant, go to the sauna or play billiards. Business people can use the conference room services.

Do not be upset if you did not make it to the resort in winter. In addition to skiing, Krasnaya Polyana offers many entertainment options in other seasons. You can go for a hike or a horse ride, fly a paraglider or ride a bike.
