HIKE DESCRIPTION
The hike starts in Murmansk where we take a car or the guide meets the group at Olenegorsk railway station from where we make a transfer to a small settlement of Revda and to the mine where the car part of the route ends. We sort and pack our group and personal equipment and the journey begins!
Ahead there is the Elmorajok pass and descent into the gorge, which will lead us to the cherished goal. Travel time depends on weather conditions and the level of training of the group members, 5-6 hours as average. Once on site we choose the best spot for the camp and set up the tents. The next day is the time for radial outings to nearby mountains and an active photo hunt. The best rest in the mountains - an easy hike without a backpack. The third day - back to civilization. We can return either using our trail here or by the upper route through the gentle peaks of the Elmorajok and Karnasurta mountains. On the evening of the same day return to Murmansk.
It's time to make new plans and come up with the next trip!

Car delivery to the village of Lovozero (2.5 hours)
