The primary rail provider to the Urals is the world famous Trans-Siberian Railway, one of the largest systems on the planet. Travelling along this railway will provide the traveller with the very best opportunity to see the many wonders of Russia. The Transsib has three primary routes including: Moscow to Peking, Moscow to Ulan-Bator, and finally the most popular with tourists, the Moscow to Vladivostok route.

Please note that there are more than twenty modern and comfortable trains that arrive from Moscow and Saint Petersburg to the Urals on a regular schedule for your convenience. The journey from Moscow to Ekaterinburg usually takes from  1—1.5 days depending upon your choice of trains.
