On June 10, the summer season began at the Gazprom mountain tourism center, located in the village of Esto-Sadok in the Sochi mountains. New eco-trails and bike routes have opened, and tourists can take a buggy ride to Russia's highest-altitude banya or go on a hike accompanied by huskies. For the first time, the resort is opening the G chairlift this summer, allowing tourists to enjoy the magnificent scenery.
According to Sochi.com, the 2- and 2.5-kilometer hiking trails will wind through a fir forest, with stops at observation platforms. The routes start at the Psekhako and Pikhtovy mountain huts (Laura slope).
The routes are equipped with benches and information boards explaining the flora and fauna of the Caucasus Biosphere Reserve. The routes pass by a husky park and a reindeer farm.
Additionally, on June 14, a Football Park will open at the Rosa Khutor resort in Sochi's mountain cluster. A large screen will be installed in the resort's main square, allowing everyone to watch the World Cup opening ceremony and the first match. Competitions for tourists, a drum show, and a concert are also planned. The Football Park will be open until July 15.
