Saturday. In the morning, at 7:00, we leave Minsk. In 3,5 hours we arrive at the lodge, have lunch and meet with our guide. Let's start to explore the bog! The first nature reserve is called Boloto Moh and it will surprise you with a number of small picturesque lakes which people call here "azerauki". We would be guided to picturesque places, where we can pick cranberries and blueberries, We would also find out what kind of plants, birds and animals inhabit such places.
After that path we move to Yelnya bog - here we will walk at one of the tourist trails. Thanks to the wooden flooring, you can look around more than under your feet!
In the evening, we will have dinner at the "Zhuravlinaya Yelnya" eco-lodge. That would be tasty homemade food cooked in a Russian stove and on fire. And the highlight of our journey - flocks of cranes in the sunset, flying over the lodge to the bog. This is just a fascinating experience!
Sunday. Today, with our guide we will explore Yelnya from the southern side. We will walk along non-tourist paths deep into the bog, to picturesque lakes and islands.
We have a picnic just right at the bog, near the lake. We provide food for the entire route, you have nothing to worry about!
On the way back we will visit a cafe in Hlubokae town for having a quick and tasty dinner. Arriving in Minsk about 23;00.
