A good base, 30-40 minutes from the city, several trails of varying difficulty, two lifts: a tow bar and a chairlift. There is a long queue for the chairlift in high season. There is a training slope, but without a lift. The base has equipment rental, several cafes, a free recreation area with barbecue grills, and a large parking lot. A transfer is also organized to the base! The tracks are generally not bad, not much rolled up, but I would like to go snowmobile more often! The passage to the base is upsetting (the road is badly broken in places, and if there is a plus on the street, then there is "porridge" on the road), it is problematic to drive a car. Instructors work at the base, if desired, you can choose someone who will suit you!

The slopes are good, the place is beautiful, but!! B-safety!! It is not there((( there are no fence nets on the slope, but this is not the most critical. A chairlift is a source of increased danger. The operator is obliged to ensure the safety of boarding, exclude boarding on a faulty seat and stop the lift immediately in any emergency situation! It wasn't even close. The operator overlooked the faulty chair and the girl and I saw it ourselves at the last moment.. I just managed to grab her, pull her aside.. we fell and the chair passed over our feet. The operator did not stop the lift and did not help us get up. When trying to get up, another faulty chair approached us, we had to "fall" again, but this time the chair managed to hit my girlfriend on the leg. After that, I managed to quickly get up and lift her up before the chair's footprint approached.. let me remind you that such acrobatics in ski equipment with skis on your feet is not a very affordable option.. the most annoying thing is that the controller just stood there and did nothing. This is impossible to imagine in any civilized resort.. we got off with a fright, but the incident was very dangerous (( I hope the administration will take care that it is possible to take measures to stop the lift urgently and select trained personnel.. this should not happen under any circumstances!
Secondly, the damping elements on the rope hoist are defective, which is why a very sharp jerk occurs after unwinding the coil.. if the bugle accidentally turns out to be in the lumbar region and not under the fifth point, a spinal injury is very likely! On the slope, not everyone is an experienced user of the equipment, but even in this case they should not be injured due to technical malfunctions.
