This trekking starts in Listvyanka and takes 6 - 8 hours depending on pace. The path is along-shore - you will pass cliffs, beach, forest. To save enough forces for hiking, we will pass the first day quietly discovering the village of Listvyanka.

This trekking is not advisable for people who have susceptibility to vertigo.

In Bolshiye Koty we will discover a small welcoming Baikal museum, will climb the mountain to meditate admiring the panorama of the lake, we will walk in taiga to find the old gold dredges and finally, if not tired, we will climb Skriper Cape to enjoy a breathtaking view... In the village we will stay at locals'. We will return to city by hydrofoil "Raketa" or by fishing boat depending on a season.
