A family-run retreat in the heart of the Altai Mountains. Authentic cabins, home-style cooking from the Gemma family farm, a wood-fired banya and unspoiled nature.
In winter the base is deep in snow. By day — sleighs and the tubing hill; by evening — a wood-fired banya and hot herbal tea with honey.

In winter, horse riding gives way to rides in a troika — a three-horse sleigh — across the snow.
Unlimited tubing down the slope, snowmobiles and skiing — for kids and grown-ups alike.
A Russian banya, a Finnish sauna with a pool and a cedar herbal steam barrel with Altai herbs.
The taiga turns green and the air smells of pine. It’s the time for unhurried walks by the river, horse riding and meeting the residents of our farm.

The idea for Klimovka was born back in 1989, after a trip to the Bavarian Alps. We wanted to create the same kind of cosy alpine corner in our home mountains of Ridder.
Back then it seemed impossible: untamed wilderness, no roads, no electricity and no running water. But step by step, we built a real village here.
Klimovka is our home, and we warmly invite you to be our guests!
