08:00 – 08:10 | Hotel Pick-Up & Transfer
We pick you up from your hotel and drive to Medeo, where we take the eco-taxi to the turnoff toward Gorelnik Gorge.
08:35 – 09:00 | Gorelnik Gorge
The trail begins with green meadows before quickly turning into steep ascents through spruce forest. As we climb higher, the forest opens into flower-filled alpine fields, especially beautiful in August during fireweed bloom.
11:30 – 12:00 | “Eagle’s Nest” Meadow
We take a short break at the scenic Eagle’s Nest meadow. Soon after, the last spruce trees disappear and vast alpine landscapes unfold. We approach a steep grassy moraine slope — the final major climb before reaching the lake basin.
