貝加爾湖
世界最深、最古老的淡水湖,以伊爾庫茨克為門戶,奧利洪島、利斯特維揚卡與東岸烏蘭烏德環湖而居。
貝加爾湖位於東西伯利亞,湖長約 636 公里、最深 1642 米,蓄水量佔全球地表淡水約五分之一,是聯合國教科文組織世界自然遺產。湖區橫跨伊爾庫茨克州與布里亞特共和國,旅遊上以西岸的伊爾庫茨克為主要門戶,東岸則以布里亞特首府烏蘭烏德為中心。核心看點有:湖中最大島奧利洪島的薩滿巖、哈達角與冬季冰洞;距伊爾庫茨克約 70 公里的利斯特維揚卡湖濱小鎮與貝加爾博物館;沿南岸而行的環貝加爾湖鐵路隧道與石橋;以及東岸的藏傳佛教伊沃爾金斯基寺院與布里亞特文化。夏季可走大貝加爾環湖步道、乘船看海豹,冬季則在晶瑩的「藍冰」上拍照、乘氣墊船與冰上越野車。建議 5-7 天:伊爾庫茨克 1 天、利斯特維揚卡 1 天、奧利洪島 2-3 天、烏蘭烏德 1-2 天。可經西伯利亞大鐵路或航班抵達伊爾庫茨克,奧利洪島需換乘小巴與輪渡(冬季走冰道)。出行前需確認簽證、航班與支付政策變化。
