Altai Horse
Description:
The beauty of the steppes, surrounded by mountain ranges, resembles cosmic landscapes from fantastic literature - the most authentic part of Altai maximally immerses in its ancient history of shamanism and paganism - moving on horses greatly facilitates the journey: there is no heavy backpack behind you, you can sit and admire what is happening around. - not the most popular destination, which means the absence of a large number of travelers - the way to the starting point of the direct route lies from Barnaul along the Chui tract, which is among the 10 most beautiful roads in the world.
Features of the hike:
Moving on horses greatly facilitates the journey: there is no heavy backpack behind you, you can sit and admire what is happening around. Horseback riding requires at least a little experience with these amazing animals, so that the feeling of riding was not a novelty for the traveler.
Weather. Be prepared for a variety of weather conditions. The nature of the highlands can surprise with its surprises, so you should reasonably approach the choice of equipment and clothing. During the day it can be very hot (up to 25-30), and at night the temperature can drop to 0 and below. Precipitation levels are also impossible to predict in advance, in late August - early September, snow may fall. But during this period, the slopes and high-mountain steppes acquire divine and golden shades.
Food. We cook ourselves in the framework of duty, the arrangement of everyday life is also engaged in all participants of the campaign. Everything you do not understand or know will be taught and explained by our instructor.
Intelligence. From 25.08 to 07.09.2019, a reconnaissance campaign will take place: both the instructor and the group will be on this route for the first time. There may be changes in the program, unexpected difficulties that we will overcome together, and of course, adventures! In this campaign, we invite participants with a non-conflict character, a normal level of physical fitness and, just in case, with stress resistance, everything happens in intelligence.
Have a great trip! Looking forward to it.
