Visaginas

Visaginas was built for the people who worked at the Ignalina nuclear plant. Apartment blocks stand among pine woods, with lakes close to the quiet streets. The town still carries the scale of that nuclear ambition.

Atomic Ride by Fatbikes from Visaginas to Nuclear power plant

The route runs along famous "dacha" houses of the locals. There you can spot ineresting landscapes, have a sneak peek at locals' gardens and very specific architecture of the houses. Then we head off towards currently decommissioning Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant where a part of "Chernobyl" series have been shooted. Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant is of a very similar construction to Chernobyl's one, but is more powerful - it's a RBMK 1500. The plant is located on Drūkšiai lake which is divided by 2 countries: Belarus and Lithuania. Please note! make sure you have passport or ID card with you (driving licence won't do), you might need it in case of border check. Half-way through the tour we will have a short break and enjoy the industrial surroundings of the place. It's time for you to have some rest and share the impressions over a cup of hot tea. Be ready to hear about the history of the plant, its present-day situation and about the connection to "Chernobyl" series.
