One of the best places for fans of smoothed trails. Puffy is not here. Few people, no rocks or bare places. There is 100% snow on the tracks. Of course, the snow is completely artificial, but believe me it's worth it. According to the plan, we skated for 2 days, but after the first one, we immediately extended it for another day. We plan to come back next year. You can't convey all the feelings, come and see for yourself.
It was my first time here, so I can say with confidence: I will definitely come back! A wonderful ski complex, the trails in it are well-groomed, there are few people, while everything is working properly. This is a real European resort, only for reasonable money and close! The price-value ratio is perfect!!! I can confidently recommend you to visit ✅👍
A great resort, an opening for Russian skiers! Of course, there are not enough trails, but they are well prepared! even in the absence of heavy snowfall.There are no queues for the lift AT ALL! as well as the people on the tracks. If they ask if I will go again, I will answer - "yes"!
It's well organized. Spacious rental area, chatty staff, equipment store. It smells delicious, not sweat))). In lockers, everything dries overnight and in the morning you put on warm boots and gloves. Free access roads and trails. Everything is great!
The last time was 3 years ago, and having visited this year I was pleasantly surprised. Plenty of entertainment. You can have a good time with your family.
Excellent service. Excellent route map. The tracks are very well prepared, the guns are working every night. There are few people on the mountain, there are no queues on the lifts. We skated in the middle of February. Prices are 2-3 times lower than Polyana.
A great place, great trails for beginners and amateurs. We came with the whole family with children 10 and 8. On the 4th day, my son went down with me without an instructor from the peak. The Autograph hotel is lovely, there is a swimming pool and SPA, the breakfast is excellent, friendly staff. Nearby bowling, billiards, restaurants of other hotels within walking distance. For a wheelchair, you can rent everything, including the necessary equipment. But Russian cards are not accepted and nothing can be withdrawn, even from Unionpay.
A good place, I rode on January 2nd. There were very few people, there were no queues, the snow was good.
What I didn't like:
rental (ammunition is weak, but maybe this is the case in all rentals), although it's a plus that you can take clothes for riding here
Queues for people without skis.
Maybe I was so lucky, but I went up the 3rd cable car 1 time, went down for an hour. Employees were allowed to sit only 2 out of 4 seats. Also, 2 out of 3 times they missed and the seats were empty... Everyone is exhausted.
February 6-10, 2022
is a wonderful place, we went for the first time and did not regret
the accommodation - PIK PALACE hotel with excellent service, chic huge rooms, everything you need is provided by room service. The level of Riksos Krasnaya Polyana is 3-4 times cheaper. They took it directly without searching for the best price. Others think
the food is not worse - the common kitchen of all hotels is not bad and beautiful, the cost of wines is a little surprising, the 5-fold price tag from supermarkets in Baku, the quality of wines is very pleasant. In the morning, breakfast is of a good level. There are all the usual types of restaurant specializations in all Uppersky hotels
- only swimming pools, several saunas, gyms and restaurants. At the same time, the wheelchair is from 9.00 to 16.30. One will be bored In the company of the very thing. it is problematic to move anywhere (30 km and an unclear taxi mechanism), and it is not necessary, almost a closed sanatorium.
the staff is excellent everywhere, the wheelchair is directly surrounded by care and attention
- for beginners and amateurs. The route scheme is opaque, you need to sort it out a little to understand what and where. The tracks themselves are perfectly prepared, the characteristic feature of the connection in one essentially different sections of the track, a lot (even at first scares) warnings about non-existent dangers (a little more slope - full house DANGER), the tracks are long, mostly wide and pleasant, there is a blue 25-minute descent, but the last 2 kilometers you just have to go, everything you can't even get to the lift without effort. The most important thing is that there are few people, you can say there are none. There is no concept of a queue for any lift, you go alone through 2-10 seats, also on the tracks everywhere at any time, so clean corduroy is preserved until the evening in many areas. It may be a bit boring for a good level. Snowboarding is more difficult because of the flat areas. There is almost no off-piste skiing (just not enough snow). The southern slopes are dry.
equipment at the rental is cheaper than anywhere else. Ski passes are of a progressive price and also cheaper.
We'll come again
We stopped by in the summer, but we got into a thick (thickening) fog, which was not visible, so we could not fully appreciate the beauty. But by indirect signs, it should be beautiful. Especially in winter, when it is used as a ski resort.
Our favorite place is the wheelchair for the 2nd year. We fly in January. The tracks are empty on weekdays. In the afternoon, the weather is minus 1-6 g. The price of the skipass is 6500 rubles for 5 days
The mountains are beautiful, the infrastructure is poor, there are no shops, a limited number of restaurants, there are no pharmacies and exchange offices
