In Katkova Shchel', visitors can enjoy a range of activities, from horse riding lessons at Eco-Park Katkova to encounters with animals, fishing, and walking and recreation areas. Visitors can also take home fresh vegetables from the greenhouses. When choosing holiday accommodation, it helps to first decide what kind of stay you want: should a particular activity be the main focus, are you especially interested in animals, or is spending time outdoors what matters most? These different reasons provide a concrete starting point for deciding whether Katkova Shchel' is the right holiday destination for you.

Horse Riding, Animals and Time in the Park

Eco-Park Katkova offers horse riding lessons for children and adults. Beginners learn on experienced riding-school horses that are calm and accustomed to novice riders. This gives you a concrete option to consider when planning a trip with children or if you have little riding experience yourself. If lessons are an important part of your stay, confirm the current offer directly with the operator.

Visitors can also fish and interact with animals in the park. Animals living there include alpacas, horses, sheep, goats, ponies, chickens and white peacocks. The animals available may change; if a particular species is important to you, check its current availability before your visit.

The Eco-Park also has walking and recreation areas. This complements the activities listed above with a different way to spend your time. When planning your holiday, you can weigh up whether horse riding lessons, fishing and animal encounters or, instead, walks and relaxation should be the main focus. This distinction can help you decide whether Katkova Shchel' suits an active or more relaxation-focused stay.

The option to take home fresh vegetables gives the park a different appeal from horse riding lessons and animal encounters. If you appreciate practical, everyday details like these when planning a holiday, you can consider them an additional reason to include the Eco-Park in your plans.

Krasnodar Region: A Broader Perspective on Nature

The Krasnodar region also offers other landscapes to explore. In the «Azov Spits» Nature Park, sea waves and currents shape spits and islands from sand and shells, creating a variety of outlines. At «Anapskaya Peresyp» Nature Park, visitors can walk along the coast on wide, golden beaches; farther from the sea, the sand forms a series of high dunes. These natural features offer a different focus when choosing a holiday than the activities at the Eco-Park in Katkova Shchel'. Those considering the region as a whole can weigh up the specific offerings of the destination separately from the coastal landscapes found across the region.
