Autumn Altai: Nizhnyaya Katun, Chuysky tract and Teletskoye Lake

8 more

In just four days we will make an unforgettable trip through the autumn Altai Mountains. The mountain peaks covered with snow create a beautiful contrast with the bright autumn colors. The clear air and the silence reigning in the mountains create a feeling of solitude and tranquility. This is the time when you can enjoy the beauty of nature and relax your soul from the hustle and bustle of the city.
