The whole island is less than 30 km, covered by hills and swamps, and you can drive there by ATV only. Or by a light moped.<br \/>\nThen I was often asked why I had come with a heavy BMW. There are a lot of SUVs, ATVs, light enduros in the island, but some locals have seen such a bulky model for the first time.<br \/>\nIndeed, there is only one road in Shikotan connecting two villages, an unpaved one, and the rest cannot be called roads at all. Those are ground surfaces which are possible to be driven along in dry weather, but after heavy rains it is already quite difficult.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 640px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-6078-26\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/cap-travel.ru\/wp-content\/uploads\/10000000_1870599916456171_1374781114809137329_n.mp4?_=26\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cap-travel.ru\/wp-content\/uploads\/10000000_1870599916456171_1374781114809137329_n.mp4\">https:\/\/cap-travel.ru\/wp-content\/uploads\/10000000_1870599916456171_1374781114809137329_n.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>If you want to see the island, be ready to overcome blurred ruts, deep puddles, streams and rivers, slippery clay, steep rocky ascents, descents and even swampy areas.

But if you have enough experience of driving off-road, then you will be able to get to 80-90% of the most interesting places of the island by a heavy tourist motorbike too.
