I heard a lot about Dombay, and both those who visited in winter and those who visited in summer spoke excitedly. I also wanted to go to Dombay, but getting there, to put it mildly, is not very good, so I chose more easily accessible ski resorts. That year I decided to go beyond comfort))) and realized my old dream.

Dombay and nearby airports

The nearest airport from Dombay is located 200 kilometers in Mineralnye Vody. In this regard, all transport is focused on Mineral water or Nevinnomyssk, where the railway station is located. You can get from the airport to Dombay by taxi, bus or by ordering a transfer, which is not much different from a taxi.

The airport in Mineralnye Vody is new, but not large, and mainly receives flights from Moscow and St. Petersburg. I was just flying through Moscow because direct flight it never happened. Tickets can be purchased on one of the websites, it’s very convenient, you don’t have to go to the airport across the whole city.

By car

To travel to the mountains, especially in winter, you need to be prepared. You should take into account that the road is narrow in places, and due to snow drifts it completely turns into a white tunnel. You should have a first aid kit, rope, wheel chains, shovel, flashlight, navigator, batteries, map, water and food. In general, the road is of good quality for a mountain road, but there are dangerous sections where the road goes over a cliff. Does not accept in some areas mobile connection, so I categorically do not recommend driving this route at night. During the day there are always cars on the road, if you can ask for help.

If you are going to rent a car, then you can look for the car on different sites like , there are quite a lot of them on the Internet now, you can easily select the appropriate option, but check whether the car has chains and a cable. They may be available for an additional fee. The first part of the route follows the A157, which starts right next to the airport. The landscape is interesting, at least high mountains There are still kilometers to go, but there is plenty to see along the way. How closer to the mountains, the more twisted the road becomes, and the more majestic the landscapes. In the end, the A157 meets the A155, from the intersection to Dombay there is another 67 km.
The nature reserve begins in Teberda, on the territory of which Dombay is located, and Teberda should not be confused with Lower Teberda and Upper Teberda, these are different villages. Teberda is closest to Dombay; they charge a toll here, which tourists often complain about.

Taxi and transfer

Dozens of taxi drivers will happily take you from the airport to Dombay; the price is, of course, decent. In this region, approximately the following order of prices:

  • a taxi (minibus) costs from 5,000 rubles. Ordering a minibus is a better solution than driving a car. Equipment is a pain, imagine your skis sticking out of the trunk and wrapped with red tape. Introduced? I think you have already mentally given up on a passenger car. In addition, the minibus can take 7 people, not 4, so the trip will cost 720 rubles per person. And when ordering a return transfer to the airport, why not ask for a discount? In general, a great option for a large company!
  • a taxi (passenger car) will cost 3,000 rubles, as I wrote above, it will be problematic to accommodate four people with luggage.
  • transfer from the airport to Dombay. An excellent option for a couple of tourists who prefer comfort. And again skis...Jumping with them from one bus to another is not convenient. And at the airport you boarded and after 3-4 hours you were already there. Transfer costs 1,500 rubles per person. Find one of the sites that provides this service, sign up and they will select a company for you.

Taxi drivers stand in the parking lot near the airport, and you can also call a car by phone. The ordered minibus will also arrive at the terminal; you will agree on the meeting place yourself.

By bus

I warn you right away, get to public transport You won’t be able to get to Dombay without transfers, so be patient) So, you arrived in, left the airport. A square with a fountain will open in front of you, which, naturally, will not work in winter. Next to him, to the left and is located bus stop, the pointer is present. There is bus number 11 here, which passes by the bus station and railway station, you need to get to the bus station, the stop is called “Ruslan Market”, the trip will take no more than 10 minutes. The bus schedule will suit you; they run from 6:30 to 20:00 every 15-30 minutes. You will immediately see the bus station from the road; it is located at st. Sovetskaya, 97.
From here there are daily buses to Teberda, the flight departs at 14:45 and arrives 6 hours later! And this is not the end of the route; you will arrive in Dombay overnight by taking a taxi in Teberda.
Additional transfers in some other cities will not help; there is very little transport going to Teberda. It would seem that another 25 km and the bus would have arrived in Dombay, but no, the buses don’t get there at all. The reason for this is the lack of local population - these are only hotels. Although tourists travel all year round, there is still seasonality. In spring and autumn you can’t go skiing and you can’t go on a decent hike) but it’s a different matter in summer or winter.

Buying tickets

Tickets for bus No. 11 are sold from the driver, and for the bus to Teberda at the ticket office of the bus station or at the official one. You can also see the schedule here.

Price

A ticket for bus No. 11 costs 15 rubles, for a bus to Teberda - 460 rubles. Taxi from Teberda to - 300-500 rubles, be sure to bargain.
