Yubileyny Circuit across Bolshoy Ershovsky Bay to the Open Reservoir

From Yubileyny, this ski course heads toward the forest side of Ershovsky Bay, linking city arrival with the winter space of Irkutsk Reservoir. Trees and woodland turns first lead to Bolshoy Ershovsky Bay. The course crosses the bay’s water area before climbing onto a wooded ridge. On the eastern side, the forest again gives way to the reservoir’s open surroundings. The return approaches the same city beginning from the bay. These changes make an engaging circuit for a confident skier: forest sections demand attention at junctions, while light, wind and the sense of space change outside the trees. Pause on accessible stable ground to appreciate the shape of the shores. The full circuit depends on current confirmation that access to every ice section is permitted and safe. If conditions remain unconfirmed, prepare a separate shore outing with its own plan. Crossing the bay cannot become a summer walk over water or an improvised detour beneath bank cliffs.
