If you get lost in Sheregesh
It turns out that this happens. Getting carried away by skiing from the mountain or when walking in heavy snow, people roll out to the left of the mountain slope into the forest in the area of the reservoir or to the right - into the valley of the Karasu River.

How to get there
Bus and car transfers are organized to Sheregesh. For those who know how to use a search engine, finding them is not a problem. Also, don’t forget about such a useful thing as BlaBlaCar.
There is no direct flight from Barnaul. If you go to public transport with a transfer in Novokuznetsk, you won’t be able to get to Sheregesh right away on the same day; you’ll have to spend the night somewhere. You can try to go through Belovo. The bus from Barnaul leaves at 21.50 and arrives at 2.55. From Belovo to Sheregesh you can buy a ticket for the Novosibirsk - Tashtagol bus, which leaves at 4.40 and arrives in Sheregesh at 9.46. And a very strange option is to go to Belovo on the same bus, then change to a bus to Novokuznetsk, and from there get on the morning flight at 6.40 to Sheregesh (the same Novosibirsk bus).
The easiest way to get there is by your own car. The distance along the highway is 460 km.

As the Department of Investment and Strategic Development of the Kemerovo Region told KS, the start of the 2017-2018 winter season in Sheregesh is scheduled for November 17. The Siberian ski resort will welcome guests with new ski lifts and hotels, as well as a thermal center. However, as the authorities note, large-scale investment projects cannot yet be expected.
The administration of the Tashtagol region told KS that on November 17, the first deputy governor of the Kemerovo region, Vladimir Chernov, will arrive at the resort. Let us note that for the first time in the last five years, the head of the region, Aman Tuleyev, will not take part in the celebrations dedicated to the start of the winter season. Among other events, Mr. Chernov will open the reconstructed “Zelenaya” substation, which should solve a number of problems with the power supply of the surrounding area. Also on Friday, the Gubernsky apart-hotel with 28 main and 20 additional beds by Novokuznetsk entrepreneur Georgy Lavrik and the Thermal Center on Mount Zelenaya, built by Novosibirsk businessman Konstantin Burtsev, will begin operating.

“A little later, at the end of November, we will introduce a hostel for 90 beds of the Alpen Club company.” (investor from Nizhny Novgorod– “KS”) and the sports hotel “Shoriya Port”,” shared Nikolai Ovchinnikov, head of the tourism department of the Tashtagol district administration. It is noteworthy that the hostel is the first project of Alpen Club LLC in the economy segment of the hotel business. Previously, the Novgorod company specialized in apartments. “The need for budget accommodation at the resort is dictated by the market,” Ovchinnikov noted. Thus, Alpen Club will become the second major player in this niche after the Novosibirsk AYS-Group, which built the AYS-PROFILAK hostel with 200 beds several years ago.
The Shoria Port sports hotel, as it is, is part of a large project of Kemerovo businessman Yakov Kolesnik to develop helicopter tourism. It is likely that the entrepreneur and helicopter designer will rent cars from the fleet of the Altai-Avia company, which already visited the resort in 2015, but later abandoned its plans to organize helicopter excursions.
Also in the 2017-2018 season, Sheregesh will launch four new lifts. Including a four-seater lift with windproof caps on Mount Mustag, the construction of which is being carried out by Igor Prokudin’s Cascade Resort (owner of the Kuzbass Fuel Company). Its planned capacity will be 2028 people per hour. The second lift under construction by the Olympia Express company is designed to lift 2,400 people per hour. Its starting station is located at the exit of sector A, not far from the Elena Hotel. The upper station is located at the top of Mount Zelenaya.
Photo by Yuri Lobachev The third ski lift will appear in sector E. The road to Mount Utuya was built by the Kem-Oil Group of Companies owned by businessman Alexander Yugan. Another lift lift will transport skiers from the parking lot to the main lifts. Thus, the total number of lifts will reach 19.
As Nikolai Ovchinnikov noted, the resort will still have a single ski pass, the prices for which are planned to remain at last year’s level. The administration representative added that the regional authorities were never able to include the routes of the Tomsk Malka LLC (“Panorama” and “Ryzhaya” - KS’s note) into a single “travel” route, due to the owner’s reluctance to participate in the system.
Despite a sufficient number of small investment projects, large-scale investments in the resort cannot yet be expected. The implementation of measures to develop sector B, publicly announced by the regional administration, has been suspended for now. Including due to the lack of funding from the Federal Center for Project Finance (part of VEB). The expectations of the Sheregesh Resort Development Corporation company, as reported by KS, were not met.

The opening of the 2017-2018 ski season in Sheregesh traditionally takes place in November, but the greatest influx of tourists is observed here during New Year's holidays. Until recently, this resort in the south of Siberia was known only to a narrow circle of lovers extreme species sports However, over the past decade, several ski slopes various levels of difficulty, after which the flow of vacationers increased significantly. According to statistics, in 2016 alone, Sheregesh was visited by 120 thousand travelers.
New Year 2018 in Sheregesh means not only skiing on the mountain slopes, but also many other exciting events. Among the current and inexpensive ways to spend time, the following should be noted:
- visiting the entertainment establishments of the village;
- excursions and expeditions;
- rest at the camp site.
If you plan to spend several days in Sheregesh, then combining all of the above will not be a problem. In addition, the prices here are quite affordable, so domestic tourists with average incomes will be able to afford all the entertainment offered at the resort.
Where to ride?
When planning a vacation in Sheregesh, you will probably want to ski or snowboard on a specially equipped trail. The choice of descent must be taken responsibly, otherwise you may waste your time or, even worse, get injured. Let’s roughly divide all the resort’s trails into three categories:
- for newbies;
- for lovers;
- for experienced athletes.
For the first category, it is better to go to the “Red” track (SkyWay), or to the lower part of the “Lob” track. “Ryzhaya” is the least crowded, but there is only one drag lift. The “Lob” descent is more crowded, but the slope here is minimal, and the risk of injury from a fall is reduced to zero.
For experienced lovers, we recommend conquering such trails as “Dollar”, “Panorama”, “Elena”. Here, gentle sections alternate with sharp drops, and the change in altitude will benefit not only your skiing skills, but also your health. The only negative is during New Year holidays There are a lot of people on these slopes, so queues form at the ski lifts (the cost of a single trip, by the way, does not exceed 100-120 rubles per person).
For experienced riders, there are separate sections of the Sector E and Utuya trails. In addition, gain unforgettable impressions you can go down through the forest along the “Panorama”, “Dollar” or “Elena”. To ensure that an extreme holiday in Sheregesh for the New Year 2018 does not turn into a tragedy, soberly assess your own capabilities and take accompanying people with you.
