With some great road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to enjoy all that Yelabuga, 25 miles away, has to offer. Among the first stops you make here ought to be Devil’s Ancient Settlement, Nadezhda Durova Estate Museum and N. A. Durova’s Memorial Estate. Don’t skip Naberezhnye Chelny either! Just 25 miles away, Musy Dzhalilya Park, Museum of Ecology and Nature Protection and Dolphinarium Naberezhnye Chelny are essential stops here.
