In the last week before lent, seven weeks before Russian Easter, people came the carnival, which means the end of winter and arrival of spring.

Carnival at Valdai does not deviate from the tradition, and everyone can take part in the festivities. Games, tobogganing, under the ringing of bells, Russian folk songs, mock battles are a constant attribute of this holiday. Frosty, Sunny weather favors the adoption of treats: pancakes in sour cream, butter, jam, eggs, honey, meat and simply without filling. Hot pies piping hot, Mead, tea, and other drinks will fall at the way — on the frosty air will excite your appetite.

The bold and the brave can show the skill, to fight for the possession of the snow FORTS. Carefree fun, joyful anticipation of the arrival of spring and the burning of effigies of winter creates a special, festive atmosphere. Lovers of winter sports can try their hand at skating, skiing, slide down an icy mountain. Ice fishing, ice fishing, winter hunting awaits all who visit the carnival in Valdai. After festivities, guests can warm up in a real Russian bath, relax in the disco, take part in musical evenings, relax mind and body.
