How can a motorist find the right way in the Altai Territory?

The total length of roads in the region is more than 16 thousand kilometers. It takes a lot of time to go around all these roads. Why such a long route? The point is the number of settlements - there are more than 1.5 thousand of them in the region. Each of them is provided transport links. Moreover, the settlements are located evenly, "covering" almost the entire territory of the Altai Territory.

On the ones shown here interactive maps the main highways of the Altai Territory are indicated. In the future, their number will be replenished, and the introduction of new roadside service facilities will continue. Site visitors take an active part in the compilation of maps, not only suggesting objects for placement, but also evaluating them using a rating voting system.

All this is done so that any road traveler before a trip to Altai can determine in advance not only the final goal, but also stops along the way to inspect various objects, “coffee breaks”, refueling and Maintenance car.

Even an unprepared person can go to Altai. What needs to be done to find the right path? Good advice given at the automotive forum Drom.ru

The most reliable thing will be at the cafe to talk with truckers or bus drivers, and even go for some in a pair (and you won’t run into traffic cops and you’ll be safer, after all, the guys are radioed, you never know a blizzard and everything)

So, you can clarify the route with truckers. They can be found near roadside establishments. To “attach” behind the truck and move under its “cover” is the right way, but for some it may seem long.

AT good weather with excellent visibility, does it make sense to "reach out"? All you need to do is find the right path - turn in the right place at unfamiliar road junctions and intersections.

One answer that is "on the surface" is to use a navigator. But it's no secret that this device does not always work correctly, it can lead you into an “open field”, and some car friends with its help got into deadlocks.

Here's another piece of good advice from the motorist forum:

Simple tourist map- here is the correct option.

Yes, it's elementary! Unfolded the map - and you're in the know! The only “but”: it will not always be possible to find a map with up-to-date data, with road service facilities in certain sections.

Let each traveler decide for himself what to do. To help tourists, detailed maps are compiled on the Route 22 Altai website, so that the vacationer can, looking at the interactive diagram in his tablet or other mobile device, follow the correct path. At the same time, imagine what an interesting institution or object of tourist visits awaits him there - around the next turn ...
