Tour Options
Itinerary
You walk through the forest near the village of Oliscani to reach an unfinished Soviet-era underground facility, abandoned mid-construction and now standing empty in the trees. From outside, you see the scale of the structure: concrete levels descending roughly 60 meters underground, with the lower sections partly flooded. You hear the different stories locals tell about what the site was originally meant to be, shaped by generations who grew up near it. You walk the surrounding area at your own pace, watching how nature has slowly grown back over what construction left behind.
