Atomic Ride by Fatbikes from Visaginas to Nuclear power plant
Overview
The route runs along famous "dacha" houses of the locals. There you can spot ineresting landscapes, have a sneak peek at locals' gardens and very specific architecture of the houses.
Then we head off towards currently decommissioning Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant where a part of "Chernobyl" series have been shooted. Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant is of a very similar construction to Chernobyl's one, but is more powerful - it's a RBMK 1500. The plant is located on Drūkšiai lake which is divided by 2 countries: Belarus and Lithuania.
Please note! make sure you have passport or ID card with you (driving licence won't do), you might need it in case of border check.
Half-way through the tour we will have a short break and enjoy the industrial surroundings of the place. It's time for you to have some rest and share the impressions over a cup of hot tea.
Be ready to hear about the history of the plant, its present-day situation and about the connection to "Chernobyl" series.
