Ivdel to Ushma with Fast Gas
We begin the trip by meeting at the Ivdel-1 train station at 2:45 AM. The most convenient way to arrive is by direct train from Moscow or Yekaterinburg. We recommend train IV2054, which arrives at 2:00 AM. We will meet you immediately after you disembark.
From the station, a GAZ-66 picks us up. This is the famous Fast Gas. The vehicle has an internal fireplace to keep us warm during the 200 km ride. There is a panel with a button to alert the driver if you need to stop for a restroom break.
The route follows a forest road to Ushma, arriving early in the morning. The trip includes a stop along the way to stretch your legs. After the transfer to Ushma, the journey continues by snowmobile.
