Our adventure begins with an early departure from Almaty at 7:00 AM. By approximately 10:00 AM, we arrive at the spectacular Charyn Canyon, often called the 'Grand Canyon of Central Asia.' Here, you will walk along the most scenic trails, discover incredible rock formations shaped over millions of years, and enjoy plenty of opportunities for stunning photos and videos surrounded by dramatic landscapes.

The final destination is the legendary Kaindy Lake, famous for its submerged forest and turquoise water. The journey to the lake includes an exciting ride in a UAZ off-road vehicle followed by a scenic horseback ride through mountain landscapes.
