Rosneft actively supports projects to develop domestic tourism. Improving the level of roadside service and customer service at Rosneft filling stations is among the Company's priorities.
"Mountain Weekend" is a family road trip itinerary for winter holidays or weekends. Drivers will visit the most popular locations in the Samara and Saratov regions. Rosneft gas stations conveniently located along the route provide everything they need for their trip and guarantee high-quality fuel.
Start your journey with a break from the city life by visiting the family-friendly aquathermal complex "Volzhskie Termy." The resort offers guests the opportunity to rejuvenate in its outdoor pools, immerse themselves in aromatherapy in its baths and saunas, or enjoy water attractions.
The next location is the children's technology park "Quantorium – Region 63." This innovative space for the intellectual development and leisure of children and adolescents was created on the premises of one of Russia's largest technology parks, "Zhigulevskaya Dolina." During classes at Quantorium, schoolchildren will discover the fascinating world of science and invention. Young guests can choose a course based on their interests: learn about aircraft and design their own, create 3D objects and explore virtual (VR) and augmented (AR) reality, master programming languages, design and build robots, or build spacecraft.
In winter, the multifunctional Samara Arena stadium offers visitors of all ages a world of active entertainment: from ski slopes and an ice rink to tubing slides. The complex hosts themed exhibitions, tours of original art installations, and photo zones.
Next on the route, stop at the "Para Alpaka" family park, located on the banks of the Volga River. The nursery introduces children and adults to friendly alpacas and other four-legged inhabitants of the farm. Guests can attend workshops and seminars, as well as undergo anti-stress alpaca therapy sessions.
The final destination is the Vishnevaya Gora ski resort in Saratov's picturesque forest park, overlooking the city and the majestic Volga River. Here, you can experience the thrill of speeding down a snow-covered slope and introduce the whole family to active winter activities and sports. The resort offers slopes of varying difficulty, including a children's slope with a lift for beginners. A modern artificial snowmaking system ensures skiing conditions before heavy snowfalls begin, and powerful trail lighting makes skiing comfortable even in the evening.
"Mountain Weekend" is the fourth tourist route developed by Rosneft jointly with the Samara Region Ministry of Tourism as part of the Memorandum of Cooperation signed between the Company and the regional government in 2024. Previously, the "Zhigulyovsk Weekend," "Trans-Volga Horizons," and "Ural Wind" routes were offered to residents and visitors of the region.
