The beach and the riverside location are different aspects of the stay: the first refers to a beach at the resort, while the second describes the resort’s location.

The resort’s summer activities include cycling, tennis, and archery, as well as rides on catamarans and boats. This means land-based activities are available alongside trips on the water. These activities are seasonal; if a particular experience is important to your trip, it is advisable to check the current visiting conditions in advance.

For winter, the resort lists a floodlit ski slope, a fully equipped ice rink, and snow slides. The operation of these seasonal facilities depends on conditions. Before your trip, check which activities will be operating on your planned dates.

The resort offers treatment and health programs based on “Suksunskaya” silt-sulfide mud and three types of mineral water: medicinal drinking water, hydrogen sulfide water, and bromine-iodine water.

Health trails are available to resort guests. Along the “Put k zdorovyu” route, benches provide information about each stop and its described effect on the body. At least five minutes is allocated for staying at each stop. If you plan to take this route, note that the time applies to each individual stop.
