After Naroda ascents we up to cross Kar-kar pass with view to Manaraga valley 

Down pass there is traditional place for camp

River's fords aren't difficult if you know where and how

In light pine-larch  taiga I prefer to set up bivi

We are near Manaraga foot 

This photo is for the second route. It is golez-palia from Padezha-tu Lake

This golez is from Mezhgornue Lakes  

 This is Mezhgornue Lakes

Sometimes golez isn't big 

but its quantity is big

In autumn there is abundant quantity of billberry here

Usually there aren't too much mushrooms in mountains but sometimes you can't step because of mushrooms
The herd of home reindeer from Hambal-U river

The arriving of tourist group to Zhelanny settlement

 The way to Naroda starts from old cross country vehicle's track
Near  Oldwoman top foot, on the Small Balban-tu lake the reindeer's herder's "chum" set up

you can see this "chum" from 1 km distance

 This chum set up from 6 km from Zhelanny  settlement

Their dogs have entertaining adornment 

Every chum looks like art product

Very beautiful to dwell in home from reindeer's skin but too far to collect wood
After leave-taking with pasturers you'll plainly go up to Naroda foot
 Flood-land of Balban-U river is swampy and grown up by white flowers
It is often windy  in upperhead of Balban-U river, so you need build such wall for tent
And this is slope of Naroda top 

There are boulders and glecier on its slope

нA good view will wait you on a top and geodesy table with coins of different times

 
    Most of tourist groups become to acquainted with Ural from trekking travelling. It seems to you trekking trips are simple and not ingenious. The majority of townsman can't know how much problem may be on such travelling, they optimistically appraise conditions and owns forces, have no appiarence to make plan of progression and to choose places for bivi, they present with trouble what equipment they need here, so they often hit in different unpleasant histories. It is very good if this histories  have good ends, and in future their participants will remember with laugh: "Did you remember how we get into story on Subpolar Ural?". They don't mark not always got in such stories returned home. So their self-conceit grow to sky! We had adventures? Yes, we had. Did we extrecate from this situations? Yes, we did!  We are smart tourists, we are pro. We 'll go to Pamir next year!

The another extremity is full mistrust to yourself and over-valuation of possible difficulties. In this case it is too far to go, the rucksacs are very weighty, mountains are steep, the weather is bad, there are too much flies and it are angry. Certainly it was so, but if the way was choose uncorrectly, there were many tnings in rucksacks you didn't need during all trip, the clothes aren't suitable for season and our location, repellents are bad or not suitable or you haven't it completely and the way was marked through the almost flies places. You bet. I began so too, I'll shudder if I'll remember it. All right I live here, but Finns carring 2,5 kg gortex costumes and in wet boots, students being out of breath in antimosciti nets, Poles clothed in shorts ... They  and like they.. why they enduring?
  I won't assert all arriving tourist groups  need my work. But being in trekking trip with me you will shure each days we'll go we need, we'll across negotiate  without surplus efforts, we''ll carry only necessary things in rucksacks, the weight of rucksacks won't bend you to land, we'll atop all mountains we planned in Inta and we'll meet the deadline. We'll  eat normal and have a rest normal. We won't wet equipment or can dry it. Nobody will ill. The weather will beautiful and with flies I agreed yet :)). I lean it myself all my life. This is my job ( writing text for I-net isn't my job).
   Well, what routes are interesting for trekking tourists for my opinion:

1. Classical trekking route: Naroda (1895 m) and Manaraga (1665 m) summit in one route. This ascents will popular as much as trekking will be. The same with this route. Elbrus is the highest top of Kaukaz and here Naroda is the highest, Manaraga is the most effect top. There are many legends and superstitions about this tops, but it is more interesting to hear it near evening fire under Naroda and Manaraga. This route is interesting because of its serious excursion potential. In start point of this route Zelannuy settlement situated where mountain cristal   gained from quarz veins. Are you interested in visiting quarz gallery and take transparency piece of quarz? There are galleries with amethysts, morion, citrine, rauchtopaz  but far from Zhelannuy. The second point of excursion programme is visiting of reindeer's herders settlement. Their home "chym" set up usually on the bank of the lake Small Balbanty, this route goes via their "chym". In upperhead of Balban-U river  there are lakes where arctic fish golez-palia inhabit and spawn. In this lakes golez grows to normal size  and go downstream in low part when water is warmer and there are more fodder. The fish isn't big but it quantity is huge. At first day group have a night near Naroda foot, at second day do  Naroda ascent and go through Kar-kar pass to Manaraga valley. On the third day the group go to Manaraga foot. On the forth day - will be Manaraga ascent on the first (north) tooth. On the 5-6 days group return to Zhellanny settlment on the same way and departure to Inta by "Ural" car.     The normal duration of this route without day-rest is a week. But most of groups try  to economize money and go to civilization on  foot. In this case it is not necessary to return to Zhelanny settlement. After Manaraga summit or may be in the same day group cross Student pass  and overnight on Kapkan-vozh creek or on upperheads of Nidusey creek. The main goal - to go nearer to places Mezhgornue (Between-Mountains) Lakes, where big palia inhabit and in general paradise is here. After Lakes the way goes through Krestovy pass to Durnaya valley and further along Kozhimsky dirt  to Kozhim-Rudnik settlement (duration is above 9 days without day-rest). Another route combined foot-rafting route with Naroda and Manaraga ascents with rafting down Kosyu river by katamarans is better.

2. Subpolar Ural is rich in mountains lakes land. So it is interesting to go for a walk on lakes where palia, siberian grayling and european grayling inhabit. You can meet trophy specimen of all this species. Trekking route lets you take landscape pictures or make ascents on many serious tops, or to fish on mountains lakes, to visit reindeer's herders brigade. Still you can see places of golden eagle nesting or eagle with wight tail or meet wild reindeer or local stroller wolverine. This places is beautiful and  pleasure  for travelling and small-visiting. 

The best place fo start point is Zhelanny settlement. After crossing Maldynyrd rigde (not high in this place) you'll visit LimbekoU river where first big  lake Padezha-tu situated. I won't describe beauty of this place because it is impossible get description better than Nature created. What about fishing it is middle for our opinion: it is may be very good, may be hard-working. Going upstream of one of  tributary you can do Limboka ascent. It is not the highest top, but very pretty and view from it is remarkable. The next point of programme is Forel'noe Lake, where siberian and european grayling and golez-palia want to eat your attraction foremost. It takes 1 day passage to go from Forel'noe Lake crossing not high pass to Mezhgornue Lakes. After Mezhgornue Lakes returning home begin. You can visit another cirque lake in Hambal-U river valley where golez is abundant. I haven't it summer photo unfortantly. The Hambal-U river valley is kingdom of reindeer. The name of rigde Saledy translates like reindeer's mountains. In summer brigade of Saranpaul' reindeer's household pasture their herd, in winter wild reindeer inhabit this valley. After aquaintance with reindeer's breeders you can back home to Kozhim river, where "Ural" car can meet you or go on foot to Kozhim-Rudnik settlement. It is possible to succeed in 7-10 days.

   I described typical, interesting and comfortable routes. There are another huge quantity of feasibility at your disposal to trekking with novices, children, pensioner and endurency participants. I made this route lines after sociability with clients and took into account their care, wishes and time in their disposal.
