Krasnaya Polyana in Winter: When to Go, What to Do, and Where to Stay

Krasnaya Polyana in winter is not only about skiing, but also about the entire Mzymta Valley with its different elevations, villages, cable cars, viewpoints, and short winter routes. If you are planning a winter holiday in Krasnaya Polyana, the most convenient approach is to alternate ski days with walks around Esto-Sadok, trips up to higher elevations, and relaxed routes down below, where there is less wind and acclimatization is easier.

Here it is interesting to alternate cable cars, viewing platforms, short hikes to waterfalls, and walks through old settlements - then the sights of Krasnaya Polyana come together as a clear route rather than a set of locations.
