📝The Golden Mountains of Altai are often called the heart of this stunning region. Picture lush green slopes beneath brilliant peaks that shine like gold—this is the image that inspired their name.

⭐️ Part of the larger Altai Range, which spans Russia, Kazakhstan, China, and Mongolia, the landscape here is a tapestry of vibrant colors: deep green forests, bright blue skies, and silvery rivers winding below. The mountains themselves are ancient, with peaks that formed hundreds of millions of years ago.

🩷 But the beauty is more than just visual. These mountains are steeped in legend, with stories of hidden treasures and ancient secrets waiting to be discovered. The area is also home to rare wildlife, and the environment is known for its pure, healing qualities.

⚫️Visitors can explore breathtaking landscapes, hike along mountain trails, and breathe in the crisp, fresh air—immersing themselves completely in nature. It’s a place that never fails to inspire and amaze. I hope you someday have the chance to visit the Golden Mountains of Altai and experience their magic for yourself.

⭐️ The site has also been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1998.

🌏 Elanda rapids. Autumn is incredibly beautiful in Altai 🇷🇺

These rapids on the Katun river got their name from the village of Elanda, which is located about ten kilometers from here.
