Gelendzhik, a popular Russian resort city on the coast of the Black Sea is a top destination not only for those seeking a sunny, beach holiday. The Kordon Country Club, located a short distance from Gelendzhik, provides visitors with an alternative to the typical sunny sand-sprawl. At the country club guests stay at a cosy tourist complex where they can relax on the lakeside and enjoy the majesty of the surrounding Markotkh Mountain Range. There they can also fish and sample the delightful Black-Sea cuisine prepared by talented chefs from local restaurants.
