Gift tour

Autumn in Altai – it's a special atmosphere! There are few tourists, the weather is warm and the natural colors are revealed. Red-yellow leaves combine with turquoise Altai lakes. It is worth seeing!

We invite you to an amazing and beautiful corner of the Altai Mountains – Uymonskaya Valley. This is a great opportunity to escape from the world of big noisy cities into the space of pure forces of nature: breathing fresh air, walking along mountain trails along rushing rivers and beautiful lakes, listening the sounds of nature and pristine silence, as well as just communicating with each other, watching the flames of the evening bonfire.
