About the excursion to the Stone City
Stone City is a unique natural geological object located in the natural park of Yergaki, in the status of a natural monument. Once past the stone city passed an ancient path connecting the Uryanghai Territory (Tuva) and the Abakan steppes. In 1910, a wheeled path was laid, called the Usinsky Trakt. That's what we're going to do with high-performance technology.
The Stone Town is a living legend about the freedom-loving people of Sayan, who fell under the onslaught of the mythical khan.
Here is a unique flora, bizarre rocks and stone placers covered with a layer of moss, alpine meadows, centuries-old cedars and mighty fir trees. Along the way, we overcome the stormy Oyu River and several kilometers of walking path and stairs.
