Tours to Kuzova islands include sailing from Petrozavodsk city or another port of Onego lake or the sea to the archipelago. Motorships and other kinds of water transport are available. Kuzova archipelago consists of sixteen islands located in the White Sea, close to its Western shore. Their sizes are not large, but they look as high hills. The highest point is 123,4 metres above the sea level (Russian Kuzov). The White Sea is situated in the North of the European part of Russian Federation, between Karelia from the South-West, the Murmansk city region from the North-West and Archangelsk city region from the East. You can get to the archipelago by water, via Petrozavodsk. Petrozavodsk, the capital of the Russian republic of Karelia, is located three hundred kilometres to the South from the Sea. The islands of Kuzova archipelago are a unique open-air museum of the stone constructions created by ancient saamians who lived here 2-2,5 thousand years ago. These are well-known labyrinths, piles, stones-seides. These compositions occupy 2% of the archipelago area. Probably, all of them were used in various religious rites. The monuments are an important historical and archaeological source of knowledge about the enigmatic culture of the ancient saamians.
