TOUR R-1
I am telling about rafting on the river Verkhyaya Angara.
Easy
rapids with small waves, clear passages, some rapids of
moderate
difficulty, maneuvering necessary - all these for I-II Classes
for
rafting.
Route: Severobaikalsk - station Kukhelbekkerskya, train
goes 7
hours. 500 - 700 m. from station Kukhelbekkerskya till r. V.
Angara. Departure of the train 622 "Severobaikalsk - Novaya
Chara"
is on 13 h. - 15 min. (Moscow time). The length of navigable
river
V. Angara is ended in village Uoyan, it is 214 km from lake
Baikal.
Till the beginning of r. V. Angara about 100 km is left from
station Kukhelbekkerskya, now we are rafting down 120 - 130 km.
All the route is in the forest, there are not villages; it
is
necessary to protect against mosquitoes and other bloodsucking
insects ..., from tick encephalitis!
River V.Angara is ideal for rafting families. Rafting part
is 120
- 130 km, participants of rafting get skill of moving on not
dangerous rapids, eat a fish, get a sunburn. They use: 4-person
catamaran, boat for 3 people. Much better to have families with
children up 8 years.

rafting and 3 - 4 hours till the mouth of the river
Yanchukan, there you can fish. River on this section is
bright (smart), there is no rapids. From the fish biting

to
have spinning rod and artificial (man-made) flays for
the
grayling catching and spoon-baits for catching other
type
of fish.
3 d. - time for getting up, daily morning physical exercises,

till the mouth of the river Churo is 5-6 hours. Current
of
the river is smoothness, no rapids. In the mouth of the
river Yanchucan (left tributary of the river V. Angara)
it

Beautiful beach, fishing on "korablik" (or

cherry. Till the end of the day group reaches the river
Churo (right tributary of the river V. Angara).
