Health

Before you go on a journey you need to estimate the state of your health. If you have any chronic disease or you have been recently ill, please contact your consulting physician and ask him if it is possible to take a trip. Inform him about the region you are going to, the duration of the tour and muscle loading to be faced. If your consulting physician prescribes you to pass a cardiogram, blood test or something like that, please do not neglect it! Spend some time for it and go on a journey with a safe conscience. We also recommend you to visit the dentist before your departure. It is known that toothache can completely spoil the impression of the whole trip.

The region of Siberia DOES NOT fall into the category of territories, which are necessary to be visited being inoculated against malaria and yellow fever. But if desired you can get inoculated against tick-borne encephalitis, widespread disease in our region, which is transmitted by the bite of small bloodsucking mite. Hazardous period starts in early April and ends in early August. Please consult an infectiologist taking into consideration that the first vaccination should be done not later than half a year before the departure.
