Hiking in Russia. Trekking, hiking trips Trekking travel

Those who think that hiking is boring and tiring have definitely never done trekking. Of course, it's more than just a hike, but that's the beauty of it. Trekking is a journey through various places, most often mountain or forest. Fans especially value it as an opportunity to calmly enjoy the beauty of nature, as well as to face obstacles that they have to overcome on their own, because trekking is also a sport.

How often in big cities we turn not into our own lane, but into the next one, and are surprised that in the city, it turns out, there is such a thing. You can imagine how many interesting things you can find on the new route!

This type of recreation is useful for all people without exception; there are practically no contraindications or age restrictions for it, so the whole family can participate in small one- or two-day hikes to get a lot of unforgettable impressions. And long trips for several weeks will allow you to get around other countries and see them much more beautiful and real than on tourist brochures.

To go trekking, you don’t need expensive equipment or booking a room in a five-star hotel - you just need to have comfortable clothes for hiking, strong boots, a large backpack and a readiness for impressions! An experienced instructor will help you cope with the difficulties of the hike if you find yourself unprepared for them, but more often he will act as a guide, and you will have to explore the world around you yourself (but in case of an emergency, there will always be help nearby).

Trekking can be done both within your own country or even city, and abroad. Mountain trekking is especially popular. And, believe me, in no luxury tour you will see as much as a person observing the life of the country from the inside during trekking can see.

Our trekking tours are developed in accordance with the wishes of clients, safety standards and in such a way that they are moderately difficult and interesting at every step. Don’t waste your vacation on a bar in a Turkish hotel - become richer spiritually and physically (since hiking promotes muscle development, improves posture and cardiovascular function, and is beneficial for other medical indicators). Moreover, as we have already said, this is not just a hike along a flat path, but a passage through mountains, deserts, caves and valleys, so there can be no talk of monotony here. If you think that your physical fitness is not good enough, then you can choose a simpler tour and get enough experience and preparation for further travel.

Trekking routes have several difficulty categories. We recommend starting with the simplest ones so that you don’t get too tired for the first time and get a taste for it. After this, you will be able to visit both popular resort countries and exotic places, being not just a tourist with a camera, but almost a part of each country. Why lock yourself inside four walls and depend on airlines when you can, at least for a few days, become completely free and enjoy life in all its amazing diversity.

Why do we recommend the standard types of tourism? First: as you know, mountaineering is a school of courage, and tourism is a school of marriage. On a tourist trip, against the backdrop of some difficulties and isolation from the usual way of life, the girl sees right through her chosen one. The poet said: “Take a guy into the mountains, take a risk, there you will understand who he is.”

Second: representatives of the stronger sex have the opportunity to show themselves as real men. Third: two days spent on the beach are difficult to distinguish from each other, and two trips to the sea, in different years, are not much different. During the hike, every day is completely different, full of many events and impressions.

People who have only been on a hike once in their lives remember each day separately as the best moments of their lives. And finally: communication with the divine beauty of nature is simply wonderful!

“In the home sofa and armchair rest, fatigue accumulates from the bustle, from the artificial image of forests, mountains and rivers, there is no that sharpness and real feeling of living nature, when with your whole being you feel its blessed energy, the aroma of a coniferous forest, the tenderness and warmth of the gentle sun, the shady the coolness of a mountain river, when the mountains live with you, when the dangers of the mountains lie in wait for you at every step, disturb your soul and excite your blood, when they are visible and real. Risk, daring, mischief, seemingly reckless overcoming the rapids of the water element, sheer cliffs and icefalls - this is a state of real life, energy, the romance of that beautiful time that remains in memory for a lifetime, and which we call youth."

This is an exciting hike through the most beautiful mountains of Europe - the Alps. We can see with our own eyes everything that our imagination conjures when we hear the word “Alps”: pastoral pictures of green meadows with peacefully grazing cows against the backdrop of snow-capped peaks, mighty glaciers, turquoise lakes... Our hike takes place around Mount Mont Blanc (4810 m) - the highest peak in the Alps. A number of scientists also call it the highest peak in Europe. During our trek through the Alps we will go around the Mont Blanc mountain range - these are 7 valleys of France, Italy, Switzerland and 71 glaciers. Alpine meadows and forests, cute villages, picturesque mountain rivers and lakes, real glaciers and, of course, unforgettable views of the giant Mont Blanc - this is what makes this trekking worthwhile.

Despite the ever-increasing number of cars on the roads, flights, and sea cruises, hiking remains popular among travelers. This is one of the types of sports tourism and an excellent opportunity to travel around the world.

The “sports” name for hiking is trekking. It allows you to visit the most unexplored and inaccessible corners of the globe.

If we talk about the sports component of hiking trips, then, by analogy with, they have 6 levels of difficulty. Thus, categories 1–3 are weekend hikes, and the highest category 6 implies the presence of serious obstacles on the route - mountain passes or gorges, deep rivers, rocks, etc. It is noteworthy that by doing hiking professionally, you can receive the title of master of sports.

Currently, hiking tourism is developed throughout the continental part of the Earth, and even in Antarctica. But it is most popular in Europe, the Himalayas and North America. And if people travel around Europe and America, first of all, to see new places, then climbing Chomolungma (the peak of the Himalayas) is far from an easy walk. Hiking in the Himalayas allows one to challenge oneself, overcome difficult climbs and enjoy stunning views.

Slovenia is ideal for hiking trips. This small country has everything: the beautiful Alps, amazing nature, cities with interesting architecture, and the stunning mountain Lake Bled with a small church on an island...

In order to cross the dwarf country of Liechtenstein, you will need no more than 1 day. After all, the area of ​​this state is only 100 square kilometers of the most picturesque mountainous area between Austria and Switzerland. And one of the hiking routes in Liechtenstein from the Swiss to the Austrian border is only 12 kilometers.

Traveling through Northern England along Alfred Wainwright's route is a walking classic. You will cross the UK from west to east, much of the route passing through countryside and moorland.

The Dublin-Dingle walking route will allow you to get acquainted with the beauties of Ireland. For about 10 days you will travel through green valleys, coasts, and mountainous areas.

Some of the best hiking trails are located in France. There are about two hundred thousand kilometers of trails and routes throughout the country. You will be able to walk the paths of Brittany, wander along the rivers, visit the peaks of the Cevennes, etc. Traveling around the country, you will constantly encounter white and red GR signs on your way - roads for long hiking trips are marked there, as well as yellow PR signs – they mark roads for walking and hiking.

Benefits of Hiking

Affordable price. By traveling on foot, you save impressive amounts on travel. In addition, you can sleep in an open-air tent, eat in non-tourist places - a great opportunity to see the world for literally pennies.

  • Do not miss:

Cognition. To get to know the spirit of a city or country, seeing its main attractions is not enough. After all, the main flavor is in residential areas, in bazaars, in cafes and restaurants where locals eat. You can get off the hiking trails and admire the area in its true form, observe nature, and relax your soul.

freedom of choice. Walking tourism does not tie you to the schedule of planes, trains or electric trains. You can change your route at any time, linger in places you like, and visit attractions that were not included in the original plan.

Simplicity. Hiking is simpler than other types of travel in many ways. So, crossing the border on foot is much faster than by car. And, living in a tent, you don’t have to leave it at 12 noon like a hotel room.

Disadvantages of Hiking

Lack of comfort. Of course, traveling in the seat of an airplane or car is more comfortable than traveling on your own. And a hotel room, whatever one may say, is more comfortable than a tent. But if you are not picky in terms of amenities, this is not a problem at all.

Physical training. Hiking requires a certain level of physical fitness. Those who lead a sedentary lifestyle, move little and hardly run, will get tired on the first day.

Link to weather conditions. Every tourist wants it to be warm and sunny during his trip. But, if rain is more or less acceptable for car and bus tours, then walking for several hours in the cold and pouring rain is a very dubious pleasure.

Despite the shortcomings, hiking is a healthy lifestyle and a unique opportunity to see the most interesting places on our planet, while spending very little money.

Once you decide to go hiking, most people develop a hobby for the rest of their lives. It is difficult to say exactly why this happens: the opinions of travelers vary, everyone finds on the road what they lacked for happiness. Here, in the lap of nature, far from the benefits of modern life, people are actively engaged in self-knowledge, improving their moral and volitional qualities, learning to look at the world and their fellow travelers in a new way, and beginning to appreciate and enjoy every moment of life.

The capacious formula “the one who walks can master the road” is not just a beautiful phrase, it remarkably accurately reveals the essence of one of the most popular types of active recreation - hiking. And this type of active recreation has more than enough advantages. Walking at a moderate intensity is a surefire way to avoid many health problems. Long walks increase body tone, stimulate muscle activity, improve the functioning of the cardiovascular system and elevate mood. Hiking is the best way to unite people, promote mutual assistance and develop team spirit.

Hiking attracts both professional athletes and amateur tourists. Classic hiking has six difficulty categories, which are determined depending on the nature of the terrain and the duration of the route.

An important role in a multi-day hiking trip over rough terrain is played by the physical training and technical equipment of a group of travelers. Many experienced tourists, long before the onset of the tourist season, carefully prepare your equipment so that it corresponds to the planned route and expected weather conditions.

The Adventure Club has developed hundreds of exciting trips for all lovers of active and educational recreation. The variety of hikes under the guidance of professional instructors allows both elderly people and families with children with minimal preparation to go on a walking pilgrimage without the slightest risk. If you're not sure about your physical fitness, check out car tours.

We offer tours to the most remote and interesting corners of our planet with various options for accommodation and transportation of equipment. In a circle of like-minded people, you will be able to take a complete break from the bustle of the city, “conjure” a pot over a fire, sing songs with a guitar, capture stunning sunrises and sunsets in your memory and in photos, feel unity with the surrounding nature, and also get acquainted with cultural attractions and representatives of the animal world of the region under study.
