Siberia: Expedition to the Gulag Camps

Siberia, Russia

Please note that we only travel in extremely remote areas of the Arctic.


The gulag camps ( Katorga's* ) on these routes are well preserved, but are deserted and hidden in mountains or forests.

Most of the katorga's* were set up in Siberia, where there was a constant labour shortage.
In addition, the harsh weather conditions and the area's endless icy plains made escape almost impossible.
Many of them were put to work in mining, agriculture or logging. Others were obliged to help with the construction of new infrastructure in Siberia,
