LocaLikeRussian - La vida rusa

Ladoga skerries is the most incredible place in Karelia ✨ Hundreds of rocky islands growing out of the lake surface, labyrinths of bays, and pine trees covered with ancient moss - all these are Ladoga skerries. The name of the place came from the Norwegian language. The word "skerry" in Norwegian is skjær - "rock in the sea". It is common to assume that “skerries" mean an entire archipelago of small rocky islands, each of them is called a "skerry". Ladoga Skerries are the most affordable skerries in Russia. For the protection and preservation of Ladoga Skerries, it was created a national park in 2017. The complex of Ladoga skerries includes about 650 rocky islands and rocks located in the northern and northwestern parts of Lake Ladoga. The nature of the Ladoga skerries is amazing. Everyone can find their own there. Fishing or exploring new routes between the islands. Meditate, looking at an ancient lake. And if you’re lucky enough even see the northern lights once in a while!
