Imagine a protected corner of the Ural Mountains, where heavy spruce paws are covered with fluffy snow for at least four months a year, the air rings with silence, and the frost pleasantly bites your cheeks. Occasionally, skiers in bright suits will rush past with a whistle or an awkward stagger, and under the mountain, a cozy hotel awaits its guests, ruffled. And even though the local altitudes are far from Alpine or even Caucasus Mountains, the beauty of this region and the democratic nature of the direction more than pay for all the pathos of the four-thousanders. This is Mount Belaya, a small resort located in the Middle Urals, just 37 km from Nizhny Tagil.
How to get there
Closest to White Mountain Big City, receiving trains from many regions of our vastness - this is Nizhny Tagil. The city does not have its own airport, so most of tourists use Ekaterinburg. Dozens of flights from many Russian cities land daily at Koltsovo Airport, including from Moscow (flight time 2 hours 20 minutes) and St. Petersburg (2 hours 40 minutes). Then you can quickly travel from Yekaterinburg to Tagil by train, for example, on the Lastochka (2 hours; a regular train takes 3 hours 10 minutes). Further - easier.
100 m from the Nizhny Tagil railway station there is a bus station, from where bus No. 113 runs to Mount Belaya, the journey takes 1 hour 15 minutes, departures twice a day: around 11:00 and 15:00. By car you need to follow the Sverdlovsk Highway from the city, as a landmark you can enter the village of Uralets into your navigator, which is located 2 km from the slope.
However, the bulk of skiers arrive at the resort by car. The approach to Belaya Gora from Yekaterinburg is along the Serovsky tract: you need to go around Nizhny Tagil, follow the signs to Uralets, then straight ahead to the “Europe - Asia” stele, where you need to turn left. From Yekaterinburg to the resort it is about 165 km, from Chelyabinsk - 390 km.
