About tour

The program of the day includes a boat trip up the Snezhnaya River to Strelka (8 km) - the confluence of two rivers flowing down from Khamar-Daban. Along the river Snezhnaya there is the administrative boundary between Irkutsk region and the Republic of Buryatia. This is a very picturesque place - clean water, shallow waters, gravel and sandy shore, excellent fishing, grayling, lenok and taimen are found in the Snezhnaya.
Walking excursion along the Gramotukha River to Gromhotun waterfall. Of the five waterfalls on this river, the first is the most popular and most spectacular. From a height of 8 meters it falls almost vertically. The rumble of falling water drowns out your voice, the rainbow sparkles in the suspension of water, and the spectacle is literally mesmerizing. Along the way you'll encounter pristine streams, giant ferns, relict plants, and a drawbridge over a mountain river.
At the end of the hike, you'll be treated to an outdoor picnic lunch and a fishing trip. If you're lucky, you'll be able to cook fragrant soup from your catch on the campfire!

Day 1. Arrival at Snow Goose Country Club
Arrival in the village of Novosnezhnaya. Accommodation in the club Snow Geese, rest in the bar Gusyanka, walks in the area, visiting the Russian bathhouse with an open-air font.
Day 2. Airboat excursion along the Snezhnaya river to "Strelka" (Khamar-Daban range)
Next, our route will take us through the Snezhnaya River valley. This way is laid by Siberian hunters along the taiga trails to the place of confluence of two rivers "Strelka".
The way along the Snezhnaya river will take about an hour - the airboat is able to develop good speed even upstream. Khamar-Daban is often called "Siberian tropics" - here you will see real taiga jungles on the background of mountain ranges.
At the confluence of the Snezhnaya and Selenginka rivers we will leave our boat and take a walk by the picturesque trail to the mouth of the Gramotukha river. It is a turbulent mountain stream with a hiking trail along its course. There are several waterfalls along the river, which all visiting tourists love to visit. The largest waterfall on Gromotukha is Gromhotun. This waterfall is located one kilometer from the river mouth.
Against the background of the waterfall, all visitors to this beautiful place are constantly photographed.
The waterfall falls down almost vertically and falls into a deep cauldron, which water has been painstakingly gouging out over the years.
The next waterfall of the Gramotukha River is above Gromhotun. To get up to it, you need to spend much more time than to the first waterfall (an hour and a half). But upon arrival to the destination, you can be surprised at the harmony and comfort that reigns in these places. There are waterfalls all along the river bed, pools that are surrounded by numerous colored stones.
And at the end of the hike, an outdoor picnic lunch and fishing will be waiting for you. If you are lucky, you will be able to cook aromatic soup from your catch on the campfire!

After the walk along Listvyanka you'll have lunch in one of the restaurants at the lakeside.
