Vesyegonsk completely fits the description of a provincial town with a shade of rural past.

Locals themselves gave Vesyegonsk the nickname of “The Bear’s Corner”: reaching this place in the North of Tver Oblast and Rybinsk reservoir can be long and dreary. The place is surrounded by dense forests, meadows, water ... 7500 inhabitants, only one paved road, the remaining roads are covered with sand.

The most popular vehicles for riding along the town streets are bicycles.

The air in Vesyegonsk is really magical, especially on the banks of Rybinka. Tall pine trees, sandy beaches, the wind carries the scents of resin and pine – as if you are not at Mologa Bay, but at Finsky Bay. The forests have an abundance of mushrooms, berries and all animals, the waters of the Bay and many local rivers have plenty of fish.

Phenomenal fishing, by the way, is the key attraction of Vesyegonsky district.
