COME! YOU WILL SEE IT BY YOURSELF...

We are glad to ask everyone who likes outdoor activity - mountaineers, tourists, glider-pilots - to come to Kabardino-Balkaria and spend the summer of 2001 in a place where the legendary peaks of the Bezengi Wall and the Northern Massif reach the sky. Traditions of many years and developed infrastructure combined with the beauty of the surrounding peaks will make your break full of bright experience which will always live in your mind. The great variety of climbing routs and hiking trails provides opportunities to both beginners and experienced masters. You may bring a whole family with you - there is a lot of berries and mushrooms around the camp, which will allow your children to have a good time. As for the clean mountain air and water - you cannot find a better remedy for those who breath car exhausts in the cities month after month.
