July-August is the hottest holiday season. Most people strive to the sea, and these days there is a real collapse there. There are practically no free rooms in hotels, prices for everything are rising, all seats on the beach are occupied. If you are not fond of such a hectic vacation, there are many other options for how to spend the hottest month of summer.
Instructions
Step 1
Consider an eco-tourism option. In summer, you can visit the Kamchatka Nature Reserve, relax on Lake Baikal or hike in Altai. It is in July that the weather is comfortable there - moderately warm and dry, without rain. Such trips require serious financial costs, and in the case of a hiking trip, also special training. But at this time in Kamchatka you can see a she-bear with little cubs, in Altai - unusual plants and flowers, and on Lake Baikal you can ride around the islands.
Step 2
A trip to Seliger or Valdai could be a more budget option. July nights in the reserves are warm, and you can spend the night in a tent. And the water warms up rather quickly, even if it rained and was cold the day before. The only drawback may be the abundance of insects. But in hot weather, they are practically nonexistent.
Step 3
If you want to cool off in the heat, go to the Scandinavian countries. In summer you can see the Norwegian fjords, go fishing in Finland, take a cruise on a motor ship. Of course, it is quite hot in these countries in July too. But the heat there is not as exhausting as on the seaside, and it is much easier to breathe.
Step 4
But Europe has recently met tourists with natural disasters. Either extreme heat, or autumn in the middle of summer. If you are going to visit European countries, stop at those where there are still seaside or water resorts. In this case, it is better to wait out the heat on them.
Step 5
Get a ticket to a sanatorium or a holiday home. Vacation is a great opportunity to take care of your health. Consider options for relaxation and treatment at the famous Caucasian mineral springs. Or you can go to Ukraine in the Carpathians and breathe in the coniferous air. The Carpathians attract extreme tourists with the opportunity to kayak on mountain rivers and feel the flavor of traditional Ukrainian life.
