The Dolozhskaya Cave is the second largest cave in the Leningrad Region. It is wrapped in myths and legends. It is said that in the first half of the XVIII century a monk lived in Dolozhskaya cave and met his death here.
The cave is two horizontal galleries connected by a narrow aisle. The length of the larger gallery is 11 meters. At the end of the gallery there is an underground lake with healing water and a small altar. And in the river Dolgoj near the cave there is a stone with the footprint of the Virgin Mary (but it is almost impossible to see it in winter).
You should study the cave with a flashlight, walk slowly and carefully: the vaults are low, and on the walls of the winter moths and bats.

Stop by the bakery to buy a couple of cakes and hot tea: lunch today will be a little later, but a refreshment on the way will do.

The Lion Ostrich Farm is home to free grazing czars, turkeys, pheasants and, of course, African ostriches. Birds can be fed and photographed with them. The owner of the farm can have a short excursion, and then is allowed to wander around the farm by himself. Poultry meat is on sale, but only 3-4 days in advance.
The farm receives guests from 10:00 to 16:00 every day. For more information, search here and call 8 (911) 198-99-67.

Cheremetsky reserve was established in 1976 to preserve preglacial lakes and the dense forests surrounding them.
Take an hour to wander through the winter forest and admire the beauty of Lake Vrevo and Lake Cheremetskoye. If you want you can reach the St. John the Theological Monastery, which is more than 5 centuries old.
