Winter in Russia


Inspite there are springs and autumns in Russia, travel specialists tend to say only about Summer and Winter seasons in Russia, better to say high and low travel season.

Many people see Russia as a country of high snow-drifts and severe frost (Winter in Siberia lasts from November to March, the temperature can drop to -30-45 C).
This very viewing makes our country so attractive and charming, because Russian can make fun and travel under any weather conditions. Which is confirmed by developing winter tourism: winter is not a time to sit home under a blanket when there are so many wonderful opportunities gifted by nature.   

Tranquil sightseeing, not in crowds, modern ski resorts, cross-country skis, taiga trips, dog sledding, snowmobiling, and simply have a rest in a cozy wooden house with a cup of hot tea near a fireplace. Pyala Travel invites you to a winter dream.
