Vacationers spend their vacations in different ways: some strive for the warm sea, others go to exotic countries, and others simply remain to cultivate their summer cottages. But there is another amazing category of people - travelers, tramps, simply - savages. All year they imagine how they get together and walk along uncharted paths, comprehend the secrets of nature, admire its beauty, conquer turbulent rivers and mountain passes. And then on the halt, cozy tents will stand side by side, songs will be sung with a guitar, and smoke will draw fire ...
There are many places in Russia where you could go for such romance. And one of them is Lake Baikal. Even a short vacation on Lake Baikal by savages will be remembered for a long time. The lake is beautiful at any time of the year. Short Baikal summer attracts with wonderful fishing, swimming, autumn colors the Baikal shores with bright watercolor. It is in the fall that a favorable season begins for beauty lovers - photographers. In winter, Baikal is a solid paradise for skiers, lovers of winter fishing and dog sledding.
Along the coast of the lake and on the islands there are many tourist camps, hotels, campsites, but rest on Lake Baikal by savages is no less attractive. Truly, it can be appreciated only by those who are ready to give up at least for a while the benefits of civilization and merge together with nature. Peschanaya Bay is just waiting for such hermits, philosophers, to immerse them in silence and silence. Here, even time seems to stop. And the island of Olkhon will present wonderful fishing and will surprise you with unspoiled virgin nature.
