Every parent knows that organizing a family vacation is not the easiest task. It is always important to choose a convenient route, save money and take into account all possible nuances of the trip, as well as the interests of the child. Since children love various entertainment and art venues, the best option would be a "mixed" route. We have collected the most interesting and popular options for traveling in Russia for a family.
A trip to the mountains: Krasnaya Polyana
Holidays in the resorts of the Krasnodar Territory are not impressive for everyone – someone is already used to trips to Turkey or other countries, and is in no hurry to book hotels on the Black Sea. However, Krasnaya Polyana is a place that is definitely worth visiting at least once in your life. The infrastructure in this place is no worse developed than in the Alps, comfortable children's rooms and areas for active recreation are equipped. One of the favorite travel destinations for both children and adults is ski lift riding.
Almost all hotels have luxury pools, restaurants and entertainment venues. After resting on Krasnaya Polyana for at least 3-4 days, you will also be able to appreciate the clean and fresh air. And if you get bored (which, however, is almost impossible), you can always get to the nearest beach.
During the trip, be sure to visit the Green Planet Park, take a ride on a summer tubing with the whole family and spend the day in Sochi Park.
Sea and nature in Gelendzhik
Gelendzhik has been one of the most popular resorts in Russia for many years. A trip to Gelendzhik is the best solution for a family with a school–age child, with them you can visit the water park and dolphinarium. You can go both in season and in early September, so as not to encounter crowds of tourists.
This place is especially convenient for family holidays – there are hotels and private hotels, restaurants, recreation areas and attractions in the city. When choosing a room in a private guest house, carefully study the description so as not to make a mistake with the number of beds.
Also make a route for excursions – there are many picturesque and interesting locations in the vicinity of Gelendzhik.
Moscow region: Prioksko-terrasny Nature Reserve
If the vacation lasts only a few days, you can have a wonderful rest without going too far. For example, you can go to the Prioksko-Terrasny nature Reserve, where bison are bred. This place will be interesting for everyone – adults and children. And if you want to extend your trip, you can stay in one of the cities of the Golden Ring.
The reserve was created in the XX century due to the need to preserve bison - for many years of work of Prioksko–Terrasny and other reserves, it was possible to return an almost extinct species of animals to nature. In addition to bison, wild boars, bison and spotted deer can be seen here. Guided tours are conducted on the territory of the reserve – convenient paths are equipped for visitors.
Altai: mountains, outdoor activities and scenic views
One of the non–standard options for a summer vacation with the whole family is a trip to Altai, to the mountains and beautiful landscapes that amaze the imagination.
But in Altai you will find not only natural parks, there are also many historical monuments preserved here and regular excursions for the whole family are held. We recommend visiting Denisova Cave, a unique archaeological site where you can see early traces of human habitation. It is also worth climbing Mount Kyzyl, to the observation deck.
The most popular format for a family trip is a 5-8–day tour, in which you will take a horse ride, go rafting on a mountain river and visit various excursions. And if the child is still small and not ready for active recreation, then you can limit yourself to quiet, hiking – you definitely won't have to be bored in Altai.
Nikola-Lenivets Art Park in Kaluga region
Once in Kaluga during your vacation, be sure to visit the Nikola-Lenivets Art Park, which is very popular. Bizarre and impressive wooden sculptures grow right "in the middle of the forest". You can solve the meaning of "Bobur" or "Lazy Ziggurat" with the whole family, as well as walk through the meadows, swim in the river, arrange a bike race.
You can stay in the park for a few days by booking a cabin or a camping place. Such a trip will bring you a lot of impressions and will become a vivid memory of the summer of 2022.
And if you feel that you have been very tired for a year and want to really relax and return to work with renewed vigor, choose one of the directions for rest and mental reboot.
