Free Volga-View Ice Rink to Open Near Tolyatti

For winter sports enthusiasts, an ice rink with a picturesque view of the Volga River and surrounding mountains will open on the Samara-Tolyatti tourist route. It will be created at the Volzhskaya Zhemchuzhina station.

«Everything has been set up for recreation here: bright art objects and a volleyball court have been installed, and an eco-trail has been laid. It leads to a new viewing platform up the slope, offering stunning views of the Zhiguli Mountains and the Volga. An ice rink will soon be created there,» said the Kuibyshev Railway.

According to the company, the stop has already been visited by 25,000 people. It is possible that the influx will increase — in the region a circular route will be developed that will connect three major cities — Samara, Tolyatti, and Syzran.

«The project is currently in the final stage of approval. We plan to launch the route for the summer period and study its demand and passenger flow during that time,» said head Vyacheslav Dmitriev.

In March, they plan to resume traffic on the Tolyatti-Syzran route.
