The ice skating track is unique in the region for being a long, continuous forest path rather than a standard circular rink.
The resort is situated in an area historically influenced by the geography of the Karelian Isthmus.
The outdoor heated pools are designed to remain open for swimming even during sub-zero temperatures.
The resort integrates a 'Forest Park' area featuring rope courses and obstacle navigation for all skill levels.
Ohta Park is a year-round alpine-style resort located 10 kilometers north of St. Petersburg in the Leningrad region. The facility centers on a downhill skiing complex featuring several slopes and a chairlift system. During winter, the park operates a 1.5-kilometer forested ice skating trail that winds through the surrounding pine woods. The complex includes outdoor swimming pools with heated water that remain accessible throughout the year. On-site infrastructure offers multiple restaurants, a bathhouse complex, and specialized activity zones for children. The resort utilizes artificial snowmaking technology to extend the winter sports season. Several distinct accommodation types are available on the property, ranging from hotel rooms to private cottages. The terrain is characterized by hilly landscapes typical of the Karelian Isthmus. The resort serves as a major hub for regional recreational sports and family tourism.
The illuminated forest skating path during the winter season provides the most distinct visual backdrop.
