Kaspersky Race: Forest Stage One

Route at a glance

Most of the route stays under tree cover, with clearings and old tracks regularly opening the view. Along the way, mixed woodland, old forest tracks and small clearings are revealed one section at a time. The route passes Kaspersky Race, Treil-mnogodnevka and Sportivnyi festival' Kaspersky Race. Together they turn the walk into a coherent introduction to the area rather than a simple transfer.
