This is already my second hike with Kuluar: the first time was last year, the second time this year - in July 2020 through the western Gorgany (4 days).
I liked the guide, Igor Zelenchuk, and his assistant Oksana Markina, I liked the company. I especially liked how we were fed, there was solyanka, and borscht, and tea, and kissel and much more, plus there were constant snacks at stops and on the road to keep up our strength.
Also, the guide gave a good safety briefing at the beginning of our hike, told us where to step, where not to step to avoid injuries, also how to use trekking poles, how to behave on the hike, etc.
I liked the route, there were many unforgettable moments, very beautiful nature. We lived for two days in a two-story house for travelers on the Plisce mountain pasture.
I liked the evenings by the campfire.
The only thing that was a bit unexpected for me was the fairly frequent rains, for such cases you definitely need to bring a second pair of shoes, because the first one can get wet, which happened in my case.
In the end, I was very satisfied with the trip, the guide accompanied us, answered questions about the area and the hike, and led us from start to finish, it was great. I recommend it :)
