Airboat ride

Imagine: you are rushing over the snow—white plain of Ladoga, rocky islands float by on your sides, and under you there is ice, snow, or open water. The airboat goes where there are no roads. Unlike boats, it does not wait for navigation — it works all year round.

Why "North" is a special experience

• Closed heated cabin. There is a crushing frost outside, and a cozy warmth inside. You enjoy the views without thinking about the weather.
• Panoramic glazing. No narrow portholes. It's like you're floating over a lake, and Ladoga opens up in front of you in all its winter might.
• Access to places where others cannot reach. In summer, these routes are only accessible from the water by boat. In winter, you walk right across the ice to a place where there are no trails or people.
• Works when the boats are stationary. In autumn, when the ice has not yet risen, and in spring, when it has already started. In winter, on ice. The airboat is not tied to the season.

Expedition to Valaam Island
