The cost of renting a barbecue with skewers and a grill for three hours is 1,950 rubles. A three-hour rental of a set of furniture for six vacationers costs the same. You can also rent a tent for 5 thousand rubles for three hours.
If you want to stay for more than three hours and eat another portion of kebab, the payment will be more lenient: for each additional hour you need to pay 10 percent of the total cost of renting the equipment.
"A whole clearing with benches and tables"
Kuzminki is a paradise for barbecue makers. There is a whole clearing with benches and tables. If there are no free free ones seating, you can rent chairs - 500 rubles for four pieces per day. Sheds are also available for rent.

How much is the fine for lighting fires in the wrong place?
Lighting a fire and using barbecues in all forested areas of Moscow, with the exception of specially designated areas, is prohibited. Violators face a fine of 3 to 5 thousand rubles.
Even if barbecue cooking is permitted, this does not mean that nearby trees can be used for firewood - only coal is allowed to be used as fuel, and for illegal cutting there is a fine of 5 to 200 thousand rubles.
In addition, you need to remember that the park is a public place, so you can’t drink alcohol here - a bottle of beer can cost 300 rubles, and for an addiction to stronger alcohol you will have to pay the state up to 700 rubles. For garbage thrown in the wrong place, you will have to pay a fine of 500 rubles.
Sunny, warm weather and fresh summer air are conducive to traditional national recreation in the lap of nature - cooking barbecue. But what to do if you don’t have a dacha and you don’t have enough time to travel outside the city? There are many places in Moscow (mostly free) where you can fry meat and all the necessary conditions have been created for this.
Serebryany Bor
This popular holiday destination, located in the west of Moscow, is famous for its good ecology and picturesque landscapes. Every year, the number of picnic areas and gazebos on the territory of the forest increases (this year there are already more than two dozen), perfect for barbecuing and with all the necessary infrastructure - tables and benches, barbecues and trash cans, as well as dry closets nearby.
However, the influx of holidaymakers is also growing here. Therefore, finding a place to relax is becoming an increasingly difficult task. To occupy free sites with the best views(for example, to Bottomless Lake), you will most likely have to come here early in the morning. An option for those who are not economical is paid VIP tents and gazebos.
How to get there: Polezhaevskaya metro station, then a half hour ride by trolleybuses (No. 20, 21, 65 or 86) or minibuses (No. 20, 190 or 593) to the Serebryany Bor stop.

Kuzminki-Lublino
The territory of the Kuzminki-Lublino park is large and divided into three parts - cultural (church, old manor and museums), leisure (attractions, beach, cafe, boat station) and forest (walks among lindens and ancient oaks). A large number of picnic areas are located on the shore of Shchuchye Lake and near the Shibaevsky Pond.
Here everyone chooses a site according to their taste: a gazebo, a canopy, benches with tables or ordinary stumps. In many places, barbecues have already been installed, but not everywhere. However, everything you need for a picnic is available for rent here. Moreover, you can agree on it in advance, having previously agreed on all the conditions by phone. The disadvantages of vacationing in Kuzminki can be competing vacationers and an abundance of garbage.

A picnic can be combined with active recreation- tourists praise local cycling routes. You can rent a bicycle here in the same way as a children's electric car or golf cart.

There are also picnic points a few kilometers from here - along Vilisa Latsis Street in the Aleshkinsky Forest Park.
How to get there: The place is located close (about 1-2 kilometers on foot) from the Planernaya metro station.
Troparevsky Park
This place is somewhat inferior to its neighbors in terms of amenities and relaxation comfort. And this is its main charm. In Troparevsky Park you can find deserted paths, hand-feed squirrels and even get lost. In a word, for a short time you will feel yourself among almost pristine nature. There is also less competition for picnic places, of which there are about two dozen - with gazebos, tables and, as a rule, high barbecues. In short, an excellent option for those who are willing to endure some inconvenience ( hiking to your destination from the metro, mosquitoes, lack of a variety of entertainment and attractions, a small number of toilets) in order to isolate yourself from the bustle of the city.
How to get there: The park is located close (about two kilometers on foot) from the Yugo-Zapadnaya and Konkovo metro stations.
Setun River Valley
The largest in Moscow nature reserve(area - about 700 hectares) invites everyone to barbecue. In the valley there are several cozy picnic points with gazebos, bins and toilets, tables and benches. You should look for them at the beginning of Starovolynskaya Street, on Kremenchugskaya, Dorogobuzhskaya and Nezhinskaya streets.

The picnic area in these places is located at a considerable distance from the well-known Tsaritsyno estate and the park area around it. The barbecue areas are located in the Biryulevsky Arboretum, a few kilometers from the estate. Here you can find about a dozen well-appointed spots with simple but nice benches, tables, trash cans and, most importantly, barbecues.

The sites are equipped with tables and benches, canopies and barbecues. Each can accommodate about ten people. There are dry toilets nearby. Competition for these places is usually not too strong.
There are shops nearby. In other words, this is not the most common recreation area among vacationers, which will undoubtedly play into the hands of those barbecue lovers who get here.

Izmailovo

Therefore, it would be a good idea to bring your own equipment for frying meat.
In general, there should be enough space for everyone in Izmailovo, because there are not so many vacationers. Another convenience is parking nearby (on Chechulina Street and on the Main Alley). Among the disadvantages is the abundance of garbage, which is not always removed on time.

There are quite a lot of them in Moscow, today we will talk about some of them. Sign up and get ready for a picnic.
If you don't have time to go out of town

And with the onset of summer, you want to sit not in a stuffy hall, but under the trees, on the green grass. Today, finding places for barbecue in Moscow is not difficult. There are thousands of places in the capital and its environs where you can come with a barbecue and sit comfortably under the shade of trees or in gazebos. Moreover, in most cases they will not even charge you money for using them. Except in cases where you need to rent the barbecue itself or charcoal.
Responsibilities of vacationers
Before talking about places for barbecue in Moscow, I would like to remind you of the basic rules. Firstly, you must follow the established rules of conduct, and secondly, fire safety rules.

City center
The closer to the center, the harder it is to find appropriate place to sit quietly by the fire. Therefore, it is advisable to find some time and get closer to park areas and the outskirts of the capital. However, in Central administrative district There are special grill areas. For example, an excellent option is the Sparrow Hills park-reserve. It is located on the picturesque right bank of the river. Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to find a free place here on a good, clear day.
Your best choice
Considering the most popular places for barbecue in Moscow in 2017, one cannot fail to note the special zones that are located near Andreevsky Ponds. People are attracted by beautiful nature, well-groomed conditions and good equipment. In addition, they are located next to the metro and the Auchan hypermarket, where you can easily buy everything you need, including marinated meat.
City gardens also invite you to spend time under the shade of trees on cool alleys. Gorky Park and Neskuchny Garden are ready to provide a convenient place for a picnic, but only on the condition that you bring fried meat with you or order it from neighboring restaurants. For the rest - perfect place for relax. With the onset of spring, hammocks and sun loungers appear on the lawns in which you can sunbathe.

Permitted places for barbecue in Moscow allow each of us to spend our day off in the best possible way, with our family and friends. For residents of the northwestern part of the capital, the nearby Stroginskaya floodplain, the right bank of the Moskva River Bay, would be a good option. There are only five points with barbecues, but in addition there is the opportunity to walk with children on playgrounds, sunbathe on the beach and go boating.
Northern District
This is where most of the parks are located, which have equipped places for barbecue. This is the greenest and most attractive area for recreation in Moscow. In particular, the Pokrovskoye-Streshnevo natural and historical park awaits you. Its vast territory is conducive to outdoor recreation. There are special areas for frying in the All Saints Grove and the Shchukinsky Forest Park. Do not forget that you will have to walk a considerable distance before you get to your location. Therefore, comfortable shoes and functional backpacks are a must.

People come here to relax and play sports. The barbecue areas are huge, luxurious, as if created for a whole group to get together.

Now there are 15 picnic points here. They are located along the Main Alley. Stationary barbecues and large oak tables with benches are installed everywhere.
The Kosinsky natural-historical park is located relatively nearby. Very beautiful, quiet, it also offers its guests to taste aromatic kebab. True, there are only three sites here, and on weekends the competition will be quite high. One of them is located closer to the village of Rudnevo, the second near Lukhmanovskaya Street, and another one on the shore of Lake Belye. All of them are designed for large companies and are equipped with everything necessary.
Kuzminki Park includes three picnic towns. You won’t get lost, there are signs leading to each of them and each place is equipped with long tables and durable benches, benches and awnings. There are huge barbecues, garbage containers and barrels for used coals nearby.
Southern district of the capital
We will consider it last. The best places for barbecue in Moscow are located here, but the competition is high, so you will have to arrive almost in the morning. Do you want to spend an unforgettable evening? Go to the Biryulevsky arboretum. Of course, you can’t make a fire here everywhere; in the Tsaritsyno estate it is generally strictly prohibited. But if you go further, you will find beautiful picnic areas in the depths of the park. There are paid and free places, tables and benches, barbecues - everything is under a roof in case of rain. There are only eight free sites throughout the park, so arrive early on weekends. Otherwise, you will have to wait a long time while others fry the meat and clear the grill. You can come here with your children; they will have a great time on the playgrounds.
If you don’t want to go to the arboretum, pay attention to There are three places where you can have barbecue. But that is not all. The park can also host a cultural program. After everyone has eaten, visit the Boyar House, the noble estate and ancient burial mounds. And again I would like to note that you need to take a place here early. It’s better to fry meat and sit on the nearest lawn, leaving the grill to the next people who want it, than to wait in line, inhaling the fragrant smoke.
We're leaving the city
If you have your own car, then you won’t have any problems finding a place for barbecue. The further beyond the Moscow Ring Road, the greater the chances of having a picnic in peace and quiet with your friends. Within the capital on a fine day, hundreds and thousands of people are looking for opportunities to occupy cozy gazebo in the shade of trees and have a great time enjoying delicious meat. Therefore, it is hardly worth counting on the fact that you will easily and simply find a free site. If you don’t have a car, then get out to the park as early as possible, in the morning. But outside the city, with a personal barbecue in the trunk, you can choose a place according to your own taste.
Instead of a conclusion
Urban areas today are becoming more and more equipped and suitable for family recreation. Appears great amount entertainment that will suit all family members. Gone are the days when kebabs were fried in nature using two stones, between which branches collected here were burned. Today we are learning to protect nature and maintain order. Therefore, picnic areas are being opened everywhere so that people have the opportunity to relax culturally without disturbing others.
