Gazprom Polyana - two peaks, "Laura" and "Alpika"
A route for those who want to get the most out of their experience and see everything in just one day. You will find the fir forests of the "Psekhako" plateau, the alpine meadows of the Aibga ridge, as well as a panoramic view of all three resorts of the mountain cluster and the villages of Krasnaya Polyana and Esto-Sadok. You can ride all types of cable cars, including the unique 3S. Each cabin of this lift is designed for 30 people. Its length is about 5.6 kilometers, and the speed can reach up to 11 meters per second. An ascent or descent on this cable car is an experience similar to the flight of Caucasian birds, as you soar above the mountains at an altitude comparable to a 65-story building.
Laura
Lifts will ensure comfortable movement along the slope, while parks and observation decks will allow you to enjoy unique views. The "Pikhtovy" mountain shelter is located at an altitude of 1,600 meters above sea level and is surrounded by beautiful coniferous forests. Popular summer hiking trails leading to the Caucasian Biosphere Reserve start from the "Pikhtovy" shelter.
Alpika
Rising to an altitude of 2,256 meters via a closed cabin or an open chairlift specially protected from wind and rain, you will find yourself in the alpine zone, home to unique alpine meadows and tertiary period plants. You can enjoy views of the magnificent peaks of Aishkho, Chugush, Assara, Dzhemarku, as well as Mount Vorobyov and the Dzitaku ridge. On the other side, there is a view of the Gagra Range and even Abkhazia located behind it. On a clear day, the Black Sea is visible from the "Shelter of Winds" ("Priut Vetrov").
Evening Laura
The magic of romance in the mountains. An ideal place for evening walks and romantic dates.
