The route is called "Reserved Path". It passes through sparsely populated and untouched places — forests, swamps, and meadows. In a relatively small area, you can see various types of forests: pine, spruce, oak, as well as maple and hornbeam. Rare species of birds and animals live in these places.
During the trip, stops are planned: you can climb sandy hills, overcome water sections, and admire the landscapes of Lake Belae from a long bridge that passes directly through the lake.
Informational stands are installed along the route, where you can learn about the nature and history of these places.

The route length is about 20 kilometers, and the trip takes approximately 2.5–3 hours. The cost for adults is 60 rubles, for children aged 8 to 12 years — 30 rubles. Children younger than 8 years are not allowed on the excursion.
Excursions will be held twice a day — at 11:00 and 14:00, from Tuesday to Sunday. Monday is a day off.

This narrow-gauge railway was built in 1956 for the peat enterprise. Later, after the peat reserves were depleted, traffic on it was stopped, and part of the tracks were dismantled. Now it is used as a tourist route.
