Journey to Cape Navarin
You'll travel to Cape Navarin, Russia's stormiest place that will take your breath away with its beautiful sceneries and noisy bird breeding grounds. To get there, you'll first go to the north of the Koryak Highlands. That's one of the most scenic places to visit in Russia.
It becomes a true feast of colors in the fall. Mountain rivers and tundra are fantastically picturesque. Even more impressive is a sea trip on a motorboat. You'll witness the picturesque shores, plumb rocks, and the Shipwreck Coast in the vicinity of Military Surveyors' Cape.
This is the only journey in which you could:
The tour program may change due to weather conditions. In particular, whale hunting or the trip to Cape Dezhnyov may be re-scheduled in case of storm surges. Whether the tourists are to put to the sea is up to the captain of the boat. In case your plane to or from Anadyr won't depart due to weather, we offer an alternative program at the client's option.
Itinerary
The journey begins in Anadyr, and you have to get there on your own. We are ready to help you buy the tickets; if necessary, leave a comment in your application.
Note that to be in Anadyr by the start of the program, you have to depart Moscow the day before. Contact our manager for details.
Weather in Chukotka is extremely volatile. Aircraft are the only mode of inter-district transport here. Flight delays due to weather are nothing uncommon. You have every chance to 'get stuck' in Anadyr or Beringovsky. To reduce risks, it's recommendable to buy tickets to Moscow after you come back from Beringovsky. The organizers can help you book the tickets for the closest departure for Moscow.
Day 1 Anadyr tour
We'll meet you and take you to the hotel. Anadyr is a fabulous city that's more like a toy town, cozy and vibrant in colors; its vivid sights are just breathtaking. It has comfortable hotels, numerous restaurants, a cinema, a museum, the world's biggest wooden Orthodox church built on permafrost, the world's biggest monument to Nicholas the Wonderworder, and lots of other sights. Take your time to have rest and look around.
Day 2 Gabriel Cove
You'll be transferred to the airport and fly aboard a plane to the village of Beringovsky. You'll lunch in the village and then ride a motor boat to the Bay of Gabriel. There you'll stay in a tent or a fishing hut.
Day 3 Spit trekking
You'll have a tour on the spit that divides the Bay of Gabriel and Orianda Lagoon. You'll visit the abandoned weather station there and see what has remained of the dwellings of Kereks, an extinct people.
Day 4 Cape Navarin
You'll be trekking some 15 kilometers to Cape Navarin. Go to the Bay of Greig and the Lighthouse of Navarin built 30 years ago. You'll also fish for spawning salmon in the local rivers.
Cape Navarin is Russia's stormiest place. The peninsula extends far into the sea, and its endpoint is Mount Heiden. The 500m mount is gentle when seen from the mainland; however, it consists of steep vertical rocks on the seaside. Someone who hasn’t really gotten into ornithology should come here to grasp the beauty of birds' free flight; birds, birds are just everywhere in this place.
Day 5 Ascending Mount Heiden
You'll continue your journey to Cape Navarin and cover a distance of 15 km. Visit the bird breeding grounds and conquer Mount Heiden, the "last hill" of the Navarin Mountain Massif.
Day 6 Resting on Cape Navarin
This is yet another day on Cape Navarin, on which you'll have coastline tours and watch the breeding grounds.
Day 7 Back to the Gabriel Cove
A motor boat will get you back to the cove.

Day 10 Resting in Anadyr
