Rest on Seliger with tents

Who among us would not like to be on the shore of a beautiful lake in the summer heat? But residents of the central part of Russia need a little for this - to recover to Lake Seliger.

Rest with tents on Lake Seliger has recently become very popular, and not the least role in this is played by its very successful location. To get to the lake from Moscow, it will take only 4.5 hours drive. But this is not much, considering the beautiful nature of the lake, clear clear water, the possibility of excellent fishing and a fairly well-developed tourist infrastructure. But first things first.


Where to stay with a tent on Lake Seliger?

So, it is decided - for the weekend we plan a trip to Seliger with a tent. But where is the best place to stay?

  1. For those who are going to relax for the first time on Seliger with tents, camping will be the most ideal option. On the shores of the lake is a huge number of campsites that provide tourists with a variety of services. The usual fee for using the campground is 250 rubles per person per day. For this amount, the holidaymaker can leave the car in the parking lot, use electricity, shower and toilet, visit the dining room. Of course, seclusion with such a rest can not be achieved, because there will definitely be several groups of tourists.
  2. Those who for some reason do not want to stop at the campsite can put the tent in any suitable place. But this may raise the question of where to put the car. Therefore, the most optimal option for resting in a tent on the shore of the lake is to stay close to any recreation center. At the same time, you can leave the car on the base at a paid parking lot, and look for a pleasant place to relax. In this case, you do not have to worry about the safety of the car and will be able to use the services of the base personnel if necessary.
  3. Those who are hungry, especially seclusion, from the rest on Lake Seliger, will have to find a place for the tent on their own. It should be borne in mind that the lake is quite popular, so finding a secluded place is not easy. Almost all convenient and interesting places have already been found and lived in, and those that are unknown to an ordinary tourist are kept by their discoverers in the strictest secrecy. Single savages can be advised to turn their eyes not to Lake Seliger itself, but to a number of nearby smaller ponds: Sig, Peno, and Volga. They are less popular among tourists, so the chances of being alone in them are much greater.
  4. Those who want to go to Seliger with fishing tents, a successful place for parking will be the village of Berezovsky Ryadok, standing on a ridge between Seliger and Sobensk lakes. Convenience of this arrangement is obvious, because in this case it is possible to fish in Seliger, and to use the Sobenov lakes for bathing, unless, of course, you go for winter fishing .
