Nizhny Novgorod in October 2025 – is it worth going? Weather and reviews, air temperature and rains, how to dress, prices in hotels and excursions. How to do in Nizhny Novgorod during October, where to go in the region – I found out Eurotraveler.
Nizhny Novgorod today does not belong to the number of the most visited (tourists) cities of Russia. Muscovites may not agree with this – from the “pioneer” it came into the habit of traveling to Nizhny Novgorod simply for the weekend – but the rest of the Russians and foreigners clearly do not consider the direction as a priority.
Although it would seem that in Nizhny Novgorod it has been worth it to this day The largest fortresses preserved in Russiaand the old city is far from small. In addition, and very well. Not so long ago, he was also ennobled-exactly to the alleged 800th anniversary of the founding.
And in the Nizhny Novgorod region there are many interesting places. So much so that on the move you will not recall other equally rich Russian areas!
And, perhaps, the main thing. You probably heard about “Boldin autumn”? In fact, the creative phenomenon, inextricably binding the Great Pushkin and the Nizhny Novgorod region?
If not, then it’s time to ask! For October in Nizhny Novgorod, like the regions surrounding it, it apparently carries some incredible creative charge. Clearly distinguishing this area from among others in Russia, which would be worth going to the central month of autumn.
Moreover, the matter, one must think, lies not only in the climate, but also in something else. Apparently also In a historical aurasome elusive, but obviously important details.
Which can not be grabbed, evaluating the facts from a convenient chair and studying statistics. However, we will try!
Weather in Nizhny Novgorod in October
In fact, it is no different from the one that you imagine when pronouncing the word “autumn”. Nezharkaya and Not too warmshe does not abound even with sunny days. As if invites – get ready for winter and do not eat illusions …
The colors of the stagnant nature in Nizhny Novgorod in October, however, are forced to reconcile with the general imperiality of weather conditions. No wonder the poet said not just “Dull time”but also “Eye charm”. Moreover, notice, having done it, this is not someday, but on an October morning or, maybe in the evening, in Boldino!
Yes, in the distant 1833, of course. But, we assure you, since then not too much has changed … in the climatic sense, of course.
However, closer to the facts!
Air temperature in Nizhny Novgorod in early October prefers to “apartment” in the corridor +10-15 degrees Celsius. At times, making rare and timid attempts to climb higher-K +18-20 ° C. At night, usually in the area of +5-10 ° C, frosts are not registered every year.
This weather is worth up to the middle of the month. But in the second half, not to mention the end of October in Nizhny Novgorod usually It is very cold. And street thermometers already on the 20th of the month show something close to 0 degrees.
Even during the day! At night, there is every reason to expect a light frost, up to -2-4 ° C.
Naturally, such weather requires thorough insulation. Keep this in mind, in reviews about clothes is mentioned somehow in passing …
It is worth knowing
In the morning you should be careful in order not to slip on the pavement that has not yet managed to thaw. That to those who are gathering to come to Nizhny Novgorod by car, then they need to be Attentive doubly – In order not to “fly away” on such a coating in an unredated direction.
However, to whom are we saying this?! Indeed, in most Russian regions at this time of the year it costs the same, if only cold weather.
The number of rainy days per month reaches 5-7. AND You definitely should not count on the abundance of the sun – Throughout October, cloudy days prevail in Nizhny Novgorod.
Although, as mentioned above, the gold outfit of the local parks and forests is able to force even the most gloomy “Buden” to play with bright colors. So in any case, you have every reason to count on receiving memorable and positive impressions.

How to dress
We fully recommend that you maintain sanity and Dress the weather. Why in the suitcase, of course, there should be a certain supply of various sleeveless spaces and pullovers.
You should also stock up on a fairly thorough and good – waterproof – jacket. For counting on the same weather that is in October in Adler, in the case of Nizhny Novgorod, it is simply pointless.
If you go in the first half of the month, then you can not think about additional gear insulation. Even if you go on a trip with children!
But on the threshold of November, scarves and gloves, as well as light hats can be not only a stylish accessory. But also a quite practical thing that will protect you in the case of a morning or evening walk around the city.
Those who are going to take a water walk along the Volga at this time will probably be happy if they are equipped completely in winter. (Rare) reviews on this subject are unanimous – more – no less!
Prices 2025
They are quite modest – in comparison with the same Kazan, they are simply chic. For example, very good studios in the very center of the city, not far from Bolshaya Pokrovskaya Street, surrendered in October for 3.5-4 thousand rubles for three or even four.
Remove something (usually more spacious) near the Kremlin will turn out for the same not striking imagination The amount of about 7 thousand rubles (for 3-4 guests) per day.
Group bus tour of the city (in the non -season – on a minibus) costs about 1,500 – 2,000 rubles per person. Duration-up to 2-3 hours, often in the program there is a rich pedestrian walk along the local Arbata. As well as a few more stops at other iconic places in the city.
A walk of an individual format in the Kremlin and cover is more expensive-from 5-6 thousand rubles (for all participants, however). But she usually promises more – at least, you will not have to listen to the guide’s words and try to get closer to him.
With prices for excursions in the Nizhny Novgorod region, everything is approximately similar. Spoiler – they will start about 2,000 – 2,500 rubles per person (for example, in Diveevo and Arzamas or in Boldino), in the fall – even from a smaller amount. But it all depends, of course, on Where will you want to go!
What to do
If you still do not understand, we emphasize – in October, the climate of Nizhny Novgorod will deliver a minimum of inconvenience in curious and highly mobile travelers. Naturally, this should be used – to actively move around the area at +10 degrees much nicerthan at +30.
Therefore, we highly recommend not limited to inspection of exclusively urban attractions. For the streets of the old center and the local Kremlin, the Chkalov ladder, the views on the Volga are exceptionally beautiful and good, but are not the only thing that needs to be seen in Nizhny Novgorod and the region headed by it.
That is why many, sometimes even bypassing the regional capital, go In the Diveevo Monastery. And along the way they try to call in the glorious city of Arzamas for at least an hour or two for an hour or two.
The tourists are glorious by his Khokhloma painting Semenov. And truly the “place of power” of the region is the mysterious lake Svetloyar. Which seemed to arose at the very place where a fairy-tale kitezh-grade went under the water.
Very good autumn sometimes and Sheremetev’s castlestanding in the middle of a vast park on the banks of the Volga. And just exceptionally beautiful, especially in the morning, when the air is transparent and fresh, the Makaryevsky monastery. Looking like a real powerful fortress – by no means the abode of modest nuns.
