Your team has proven that it knows how to make projects that provide high-quality service for both Russians and foreign guests. We will support your projects and undertakings,” said Alexei Chekunkov, head of the Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East.

The main thing is to create a modern tourist infrastructure for those who live in the Murmansk region today and for those who come to the North,” added Andrey Chibis.

The tourist cluster will include: 2 tourist villages, a hotel complex in the village, 8 glampings, a network of tourist routes, landscaped paths to waterfalls, 2 runways for small aircraft, highways, engineering infrastructure networks.
