During the tour you will visit the Marble canyon Ruskeala, where you can bungee ride, explore the main canyon, as well as go down into the underground galleries and, of course, see the waterfalls and bridges. This object, despite all its natural beauty, is not very well known among tourists, but it is 8 meters higher than the famous waterfall Kivach.

12: 00 – Arrival To the white Bridges waterfalls. Waterfall Yankoski is considered one of the highest waterfalls in Karelia. It is 8 meters above the well-known waterfall Kivach, and is located in a very picturesque natural place. Yankoski is the Finnish name of the waterfall. Later, when this territory became Soviet, and later Russian it was renamed White Bridges. This name appeared due to the white stone bridges, which were located near the attractions of the Finnish inhabitants of the region. The amount of water in the waterfall varies depending on the time of year. The most full — flowing periods are autumn and spring. It happens that in winter, with severe frosts, the waterfall freezes completely, but in recent years, the winter has become very soft for the Karelian regions.

15: 00 – Start of the tour on the ground part of the marble canyon Ruskeala. This Park appeared due to the combination of the influence of nature and man. Marble has long been mined in these places. Some of this marble still adorns the walls of the St. Petersburg metro. Canyons were periodically abandoned, but then resumed production. However, in the early 2000s, they were abandoned completely. Part of the artificial canyons filled with azure water, creating beautiful lakes, which in the summer you can go boating or bungee jumping. In winter, you can admire the steep marble cliffs, decorated with lights, and go down into the underground galleries.
