It happens that you will not have time to look around, but the summer has already come – the time of campaigns and travel. The experienced tourist is preparing for them ahead of time: he knows that the slightest negligence during the fees, you will forget something, you won’t take something in-can ruin the whole campaign.
For those who fold the backpack for the first time, dreaming of tasteing unique tourist romance, do not go immediately on a long journey.
It is better to start with one -day and two -day excursion campaigns, where you can go by a group. Multi -day long -range routes only for strong, hardy guys who are well oriented on the map and compass, the sun and stars who are not afraid of pouring rain, multi -kilometer transitions with forest rubble, fords, swamps. To take as a difficult route to beginners is risky.
It is better to go on a long campaign in a group of 8-12 people. Such a group is well controlled and mobile. The public cargo is conveniently distributed: the backpacks will not be too heavy. Indeed, in addition to personal things, everyone should carry a tent or costrum property, part of the products. This is a law as mandatory as strict discipline, unquestioning submission to the leader of the group. Be sure to buy a video camera to capture all the moments of your journey.
How to choose a route? A lot depends on what you want to get from the campaign. To practice a distant, more serious trip or just relax in nature, to visit places covered in the glory of the people, or to get acquainted with the historical and cultural monuments of our Motherland. The route can be linear, ring – the beginning and end in one point, half -Kokoltsev – begin and end at different stations of the same railway or bus line.
And it is advisable to build a route so that every day in the way there is something interesting.
