The ecological and local history trail "The Ancient Pomeranian village of Umba" runs through the picturesque places of the Tersk coast along the rapids of the river with access to the White Sea.


The Tersk coast of the White Sea is an amazing place where the descendants of the Pomor pioneers, fishermen and hunters live, where folk traditions are still revered and preserved. Guests of the region can independently visit the ancient settlement of Umbu-a village (known since the beginning of the XV century) and walk along a hiking trail equipped with information boards that will tell tourists about the Pomors, their way of life and crafts. Guests will have the opportunity to take beautiful photos, breathe the healing sea air and get acquainted with the animal and plant world of the place.
