Tourism
In Karelia, tourists never get bored
All these actions have led to the fact that today local residents are ready to offer vacationers a whole range of services and active recreation programs, such as: rock climbing on steep cliffs, snowmobile safaris, outdoor sports games, hiking, rafting (riding large inflatable boats through turbulent river rapids). In addition, the level of service and accommodation for tourists wishing to spend a vacation in Karelia<\/a> has significantly increased. Overall, the tourism business has grown to grandiose proportions.<\/p>
The tourist season in these parts lasts all year round. In summer, you can organize mountain bike races, ride ATVs and SUVs, or simply go boating. But of course, winter is especially popular, when snowmobile safaris, skiing through forests and mountain slopes are held. And huge paintball fields will not leave any shooting enthusiast indifferent.<\/p>
In addition, when going to Karelia, be sure to take a tour of the most beautiful places in this region. The mandatory visit program includes the islands: Kizhi, Valaam, and Solovki. The local scenery alone is worth coming to the Republic of Karelia. Kizhi will be remembered for its world-famous ensemble of the Kizhi Pogost, which includes two churches and a bell tower from the 13th century. On Valaam there is a monument of Russian architecture – the Valaam Monastery. And the Solovetsky Islands are interesting, among other things, because they contain a cultural and historical complex that is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.<\/p>
