How to Get to Sheregesh by Train and Bus: Combined Tickets and a New Airport Express

Combined tickets “train + bus”

Since November 2 Russian Railways have been selling combined tickets that cover the ride to Novokuznetsk railway station and the subsequent bus transfer to the ski resorts Sheregesh and Tashtagol. The ticket is valid both ways from 16 November 2026 until the end of April 2027. The transfer takes place at the Novokuznetsk bus station.

How to buy and what to put in destination field

• Online: RZD website, mobile app, “Unified ticket” portal.
• Offline: ticket offices of any railway station, FPK agency network.
• When you fill in the “destination” field, choose either “Sheregesh” or “Tashtagol”. The system then automatically adds the bus segment.

Cost and travel time

Route	Approximate travel time	Cost (without service fee)
Station → Sheregesh	about 3 hours	630 RUB
Station → Tashtagol	about 3 h 45 min	715 RUB

These prices are fixed, but a small service charge may be added at purchase.

Luggage and extra services

• A suitcase up to 23 kg can be taken free of charge.
• A pair of skis or a snowboard is included in the price.
• Bus schedules are published by the Unified Transport Directorate; up‑to‑date information can be confirmed via the 24‑hour hotline 8 800 600‑1‑006.

Express route from Novokuznetsk Airport

Starting November 15 a new express route runs from Novokuznetsk Airport, getting passengers to Sheregesh in roughly 2.5 hours. Before that the journey took more than four hours and required you to find transport on your own.

• Four Russian minibuses operate on the line, equipped with large luggage compartments and separate spaces for ski gear.
• Stops: sector E of the ski complex, Wow.Aparts aparthotel, Shermont hotel and the resort administration.
• “Plane + bus” tickets (or a separate bus ticket) are sold by the Transport‑Clearing Chamber network, including online sales.

Why it’s convenient

Previously visitors landing in Novokuznetsk often resorted to ad‑hoc transport or private transfers. Now a single ticket lets you arrange the whole trip in one place, and the airport express cuts travel time almost in half.

Year‑round availability

Combined tickets are sold all year, summer included, when buses run on a summer timetable. In winter, when the resort receives the main flow of skiers from Siberia and central Russia, demand for these tickets spikes.
