We sat down and drove
Russian Railways launched (and we missed something) a new tourist train in Karelia. It’s called the Zoo Express (well, what else). He walks on weekends from Sortavala to the stations of Black Stones and Janisjärvi. There is a large zoo at the Black Stones station (here about it), at the Moroznaya station, where there will be parking for 2 hours, an exposition of Santa Claus Train. In general, you can visit both in one weekend.
Russian Railways writes that for a tourist trip it is necessary to purchase a round-trip ticket. One-way fare costs 499, if you take the return one right away, it will be 20% cheaper.
Here here all the details
