We invite you to a unique excursion along the Circum-Baikal Railway - a monument of engineering architecture of the late 19th century.
The Circum-Baikal Railway, built between Port Baikal and the village of Kultuk, 84 km long, unites 424 engineering structures, including 39 tunnels, with a total length of 8994 m. The tunnels and stone galleries of the Circum-Baikal Railway are unique in that they were built according to non-standard designs and were not subsequently rebuilt, preserving the original design architects and engineers of the early 20th century.
In terms of volume, complexity and cost of work, the Circum-Baikal Railway had no equal among Russian railways. Before the revolution, it was called the “Golden Buckle of Russia’s Steel Belt”: a buckle because it connected the Trans-Siberian Railway, which had been severed by Lake Baikal, and a gold one because the cost of work surpassed all existing roads in Russia. The road also justifies its name thanks to its unique appearance, which has no analogues in the world, combining a complex architectural complex and picturesque coastal landscapes of the lake.
The rich excursion program will definitely be remembered for a long time! Tourists of any age and level of training can participate - there are no restrictions!
