Where to go on vacation in the autumn

Autumn vacation is a period when nature pleases with bright colors, and the number of tourists is noticeably decreasing. However, you should not choose one universal direction for the entire autumn season: in October and November, Russia appears in different guises.

October is an ideal time for lovers of forests, lakes and waterfalls, as well as for those who want to enjoy walks among the colorful foliage. You can visit Petrozavodsk, Ruskeala and other natural attractions. Despite the fact that there are fewer tourists than in summer, the weather remains cool and humid, so warm waterproof clothing will not be superfluous.

October is also suitable for travel to Sulak Canyon, Khunzakh Plateau and other picturesque places. Summer heat goes away, and the load on tourists decreases. This is a great option for those who prefer active walks and photography rather than a beach holiday.

Kislovodsk and Pyatigorsk offer a measured rest with walks in parks, terrenkurs, mountain landscapes, mineral springs and sanatoriums. In November, places where the program does not depend on weather conditions are especially attractive.

November is the start of an interesting season to travel north. Short daylight increases the chances of seeing the Northern Lights, and the landscapes become winter. However, it is necessary to specify in advance the conditions of specific tours.

To avoid overpayments, it is necessary to take into account not only the cost of tickets, but also housing prices in neighboring settlements. After high season, demand decreases and accommodation can become cheaper. Prices depend on the date of the trip, so it is worth comparing several options. Another important point: the closer to November, the more important it is to choose a destination with a program in case of bad weather – museums, baths, sanatoriums and city routes will help make the trip interesting even on rainy days.
