Frequently Asked Questions
In July the weather is usually quite warm during the day, but temperatures can drop significantly overnight. We recommend bringing both a lightweight and thicker down (or equivalent) jacket. Multiple layers are recommended so that you can dress for different temperatures. You can hire your outer layers from us if you arrive and find that it’s colder than expected!
In the winter the temperatures may drop as low as -50°C so appropriate Arctic cold-weather gear is essential for fishing out on the ice. We will provide a recommended packing list and you can hire gear from us too.
If you would like to visit the Banya in Salekhard then please ensure that you bring your swimsuit.
As this is a trip for people who love fishing, we assume that you will bring your own gear with you, but we can also provide fishing equipment as needed. Please let us know if there is something specific that you would like us to source for you. If you would like advice regarding what to bring then email, WhatsApp or call us prior to the trip.
You can book a trip to the Banya in Salekhard in advance – this is a mixed banya and you should bring swimwear if you book this option.
