Description

At once a workout (for those who’ve indulged in a few too many caviar-topped blinis) and a way to take in the pretty, pine-covered countryside, cross-country skiing may well be the most efficient way to get around snowy St. Petersburg (unless you’ve got a pair of snowshoes at your disposal, that is). Tsarskoye Selo, just south of the city centre and home to a Romanov Palace, offers picturesque skiing turf and on-site rentals. And despite the cold, you may just work up a sweat.
