Off-road adventure
Description:
Jeep tours are one of the types of active recreation, consisting in overcoming off-road on specially prepared cars.
The route line: Petrozavodsk - Teruselga - Kokkoila - Manga - Petrozavodsk.
One-day tour, total run of about 200 km.
Dates: from May to November (also possible in the winter months depending on the depth of the snow cover).
Deep ruts, dirt, fords, heavily rugged terrain with steep ascents and descents, heavily wetlands - all this, inaccessible to an ordinary motorist, becomes quite surmountable if you are driving a real SUV.
An experienced instructor in each jeep will always help with advice, conduct a master class on overcoming especially difficult areas and, if you do not drive a car, he will pass the entire route himself, allowing you to enjoy the off-road and beauty of the wild nature of Karelia from the passenger seat.
All routes are laid in such a way as to combine overcoming off-road with visiting interesting and inaccessible places: ancient abandoned villages hidden in the remote taiga, monuments of wooden architecture hidden from prying eyes, beautiful forest lakes and rivers. And unforgettable picnics in nature with cooking fragrant meat and vegetables on coals and stories about off-road adventures make our jeep tours even more interesting and allow you to fully immerse yourself in the romantic atmosphere of travel.
