Olkhon Ice Park is the only interactive park in Russia where you can relax from the hustle and bustle of the city, including from icefalls. Here, along the 1 kilometer coastline of Lake Baikal, characters from ancient fairy tales and legends of the northern peoples of the world come to life from the ice of frozen waves.

"Ice plasticity" is a technology for creating sculptures from splashes formed as a result of the icing of droplets of waves crashing on the shore. As a result, the craftsmen work with a single piece of icy rock, carving images of the future ice sculpture out of it. And sculptures, in turn, become an extension of the landscape.
The park is focused on family and group holidays. Interactive entertainment locations for children with slides and entertainment, as well as photo zones and other facilities are organized on the site.
The park is located along the coastline of Olkhon Island, starting from the Khuzhir port and passing along the cliffs towards Shamanka Rock.
