Guest reviews
Пришла с достаточно сложным запросом создать тур на 3 дня, который объединил бы все активности в Архызе, и они сделали это! Все прошло на высшем уровне: ваши запросы учитываются на 100%, даже скидку сделали. Самый лучший вариант в Архызе: если бронировать, то точно у данной компании. Берите 1000% и не пожалеете. Это я говорю как человек, который на самом деле обыскал все активности, везде посмотрел цены и сравнил.

Источник: Яндекс КартыПарни отлично работают! Спасибо большое за прекрасную экскурсию к водопадам. Даже дали рулить квадриком самостоятельно, а мне было страшновато, но все же интересно!
Алёна · 04 июня 2026
Источник: Яндекс КартыКатались на квадроциклах в Архызе с компанией Проект Высоко в Горах — это было просто невероятно. Маршрут очень красивый: горы, лес, реки и нереальные виды на каждом повороте. Техника в отличном состоянии, всё объяснили перед поездкой, поэтому даже без опыта было комфортно и не страшно. Отдельное спасибо инструкторам — очень дружелюбные, внимательные и создают супер атмосферу. Получили море эмоций, адреналина и красивых фото. Однозначно одно из лучших впечатлений в Архызе. Очень советую всем, кто хочет увидеть горы по-настоящему.

Local team
Why go with a local Arkhyz operator
Vysoko v Gorah is not a listing aggregator or a random private ride. We run local vehicle rentals in Arkhyz: ATVs, all-terrain vehicles, seasonal snowmobiles, jeeps and rafts. We combine the route, vehicle, guide, gear and start point into one clear plan, so you see the trip format, price and terms in advance.
Our base on Sofiyskaya Polyana is not just a point farther from the resort center; it is a practical start closer to natural routes: Pkhiya, Sofia locations, White waterfalls and mountain gorges. If you need a full day arranged in Arkhyz, a local team can align weather, gear, group size and a backup route faster.
Own rental fleet
37 units at the base: rental ATVs, all-terrain vehicles, Envix, jeeps, seasonal snowmobiles and rafts.
Guide and safety
Before departure we brief the group, provide gear and guide the route according to the weather.
Transparent price
Cards show price, duration and inclusions; booking terms are confirmed before the start.
Start near routes
Sofiyskaya Polyana, Belaya 13: less resort-center rush and quicker access to glaciers, Pkhiya, waterfalls and gorges.
