Lake Peipus

The lake has been known to everyone since school. The ice battle entered the annals of historical science. The lake appeared in the Ice Age. Its area is 2600 m2. It is so large that it is rightly called the Pskov Sea. The lake is quite deep. The shallow water warms up quickly.

The territory of the lake is conditionally owned by two states – Russia and Estonia. This place is a favorite holiday destination for tourists.

Here you can stay with your family, enjoying the local landscapes and bathing in warm water, take a horse and river walk on a boat, visit the nearby museums and temples, organize an excellent fishing. Among the tourist centers and hotels on the shore with equipped beaches, everyone can choose to their liking.

Every year on April 18, in honor of the Ice Battle, solemn events and a military-historical festival are held here.

You can get to the lake by bus routes or by train to Gdova, from St. Petersburg “Swallow” to Pskov, by car towards Pskov. From Pskov to Gdova there are taxis and shuttle buses.
