Itinerary

Day 1 - Transfer to Ergakov
Transfer from Krasnoyarsk or Abakan to Ergakov by registered transport.
Climbing to the camping on Lake Svetloy.
On this day, we have to walk about 7 km along the mountain taiga trail.
The transition will take about 3-4 hours.
Public cargo (tents, campfire, etc.) will already be waiting for you at the campsite.
You won't have to carry food either!
This way, your backpacks will be as light as possible!
On request, a sightseeing tour of the Vidovka Mountain is possible today, which offers stunning views of the Zvezdny and Ptitsa peaks, Zolotarny Lake and Svetloye Lake.
We will pass by the Elephant rocks, which resemble an enchanted city with rounded houses, towers and arches.
We will end a difficult day with dinner, which flows into an evening of dating.

Day 3 - Radial exit to the Jerboa waterfall
Today our goal is the Jerboa Waterfall (Marble), cascading down from steep rocky steps, and Lake Marmara.
On the way to the goal, we will pass by Lake Medvezhye, which is picturesquely located among the cedars.
From the Marble Pass, let's take another look at Lake Marble, the peaks of Teachers and Cadets.

Day 4 - The parabola
Today is a busy day, because you have to walk about 30 km and overcome the Bird Pass twice (there and back).
All in order to admire the lake of Mountain Spirits and the waterfall of the same name, swim in Malachite baths, experience peace on the shore of the Lake of Artists and admire the mysterious, paradoxical Parabola.
With good weather and the desire of the participants, we will climb one of the peaks of the Parabola – Tolstoy Brother (the climb is not difficult, but impressive).

Day 5 - Radial exit to the Hanging Stone
Today we will touch the legend – the famous Hanging Stone.
A multi-ton block, against which people look no bigger than ants, lies on a sloping rock, touching it with only a small part of its surface.
It seems that if you just touch a stone with your finger, it will fly down with a crash.
But no one has ever managed to move it from its place.
The hike to the Hanging Stone and back will take a whole day.

Day 6 - Radial exit to the lake. Goldenrod and Dinosaur Head
Today, the tracking program is quite easy.
We will walk along the kurumnik placer along Zolotarnoye Lake, we will see a huge diplodocus with an outstretched neck in the rocks on the opposite shore.
Then we will climb the Piquant Pass, from which we will be impressed by the kilometer-long vertical wall of the Dragon's Tooth Peak.
Traverse through the Zeleny Pass and go to the Dinosaur's head.
They say that at the very edge of it lies a stone that grants wishes.
Why not take the opportunity and make a new journey for yourself, for example.

Day 7 - Radial exit to the Dragon's Tooth
The most difficult route in the program.
Again, we have to walk about 30 km and overcome two passes, first in one direction, then in the opposite direction.
But it's worth it.
After all, the goal of today is another legend of the Ergaks – the peak of the Dragon's Tooth!
This is one of the highest and most powerful peaks here, the dream of many tourists.
It has an unusual shape, piercing the surrounding expanses with a sharp tip, like a fang.
