I want to go there: a hotel in the form of a spaceship on the top of Mount Elbrus

A shelter in Kabardino-Balkaria will be waiting for the conquerors of the mountain at an altitude of 3912 meters.

If you want to prepare for climbing the highest mountain in Russia or just relax a few days away from civilization, come to the eco-hotel Leaprus, which is located right on Elbrus.

Shelter at an altitude of 3912 meters

The hotel resembles a space station, especially at night. If you have a rich imagination, you can dream and imagine yourself the main character of the movie “Interstellar”.

The eco-hotel welcomes tourists all year round. Its conditions are as comfortable as it is possible at such an altitude.

Leaprus can accommodate 48 people at once. There are four modules on its territory: two for rest, one for kitchen and one for technical. The guests sleep in residential modules for 12 people. Each resident is provided with their own sleeping bag.

Guest panoramic rooms are provided with:

• Buffet.
• Heated floors.
• Large TVs with satellite channels.
• Fast and free Wi-Fi.
• Lighting in different modes.
• Sockets with free access.
• Dryers for clothes and shoes.
• A separate room for backpacks, skis, snowboards.

If you are a fan of extreme winter sports, the hotel will definitely appeal to you.

How to get there?

The road to the destination is a whole journey: first from the Azau glade by cable car to the station “Garabashi”, and then by snowmobiles to the hotel. And if there is an emergency situation, you can even take a helicopter! There is also a landing site near the hotel.

But even such a difficult road will not spoil your mood, because snow-covered Elbrus and mountain landscapes will be waiting for you, which you will definitely want to photograph.
