Парни 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

Катались 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.

Очень увлекательная поездка, маршрут интересный, разнообразная природа, получили много эстетического наслаждения видами и адреналина от поездки. Спасибо сопровождавшему за поездку и отдельно за видео, снял на свой телефон и скинул потом, очень приятный бонус

Елена Б. · 23 мая 2026

Нашли случайным поиском на Яндексе эту прекрасную команду, почитали отзывы и решились! Заранее списались и забронировали индивидуальную семейную поездку на Белые водопады. Встретили, экипировали, все подробно обьяснили, сопровождал гид, Хасан, прекрасный , очень воспитанный молодой человек, видно, что знаток своего дела. Дал сыновьям порулить, мальчики были в воссторге! Виды захватывают, фото точки по пути гид показал, пофотографировал нашу семью, очень благодарны! Желаем вам процветания! В следущий приезд, по разным активностям по сезону, точно к вам! Архыз в нашем серце навсегда!

How it differs

Forest in Arkhyz is the shortest and calmest ATV route in the lineup. It is made for a first vehicle experience, a family ride and a format without difficult off-road.

If you want more panoramas and mountain road, choose Sofia glaciers. If you want water and rocks, choose White Waterfalls. If you want more mud and terrain, choose Unnamed Lake.
