Altai - is a large mountainous country, situated in the centre of Asia. Altai in the translation from the Turkic languages means "Golden Mountains". And those who have at least once seen the radiance of the Altai Mountains at sunset will not but agree with this translation. The Altai nature is remarkable for its purity and virginity. It is one of the places (which are not at all numerous!!!), where the nature's richness has been preserved. Thanks to its unique nature, high mountains, clear lakes and rapid rivers Altai can offer to everyone that type of rest he or she has been dreaming of. The most popular trips are equestrian ones and rafting tours. Of course, in each trip there is always an element of adventurism, exotics and extremes. But it is the most attractive in them as well, isn't it?

Equestrian tours. Horse riding is very popular in many regions of the Altai Republic, especially in mountainous ones. One reason for that is that in Altai there are a lot of beautiful places, where one can get only on a horse. Actually, it is a very convenient way of traveling: a horse carries your luggage, so you are free to enjoy the beauty of the surrounding mountains, rivers and lakes, which are numerous along the tours "Zolotoi Klooch" and "A Pearl Necklace of the Lakes".

Rafting. Altai may rightfully be called one of the centers of aquatic tourism in Russia. The Altai rivers have become the most popular rivers for rafting. Annually more than 10 thousand people take part in rafting along the Middle and Down Katun. The Katun's river basin offers a complex of obstacles and rapids of all categories - from the first to the top sixth. The Katun doesn't yield to any other river in Russia in beauty and power. Nowadays thanks to the modern means of rafting, professional equipment and trained guides it has become very safe to raft.

Mixed tours. Those who do not want to choose between an equestrian tour and aquatic one can easily combine both. It is especially for such people that we have started combined tours, for example a tour "The Karakoli - the Katun". First you ride on a horse through taiga passing wonderful lakes, waterfalls and mountains. Then you change your horse to a boat and rush along an impetuous mountainous river into a raging rapids. In a short period of time you find yourself both - on the ground and in water. Altai is friendly and generous. Whatever trip you choose you will really enjoy blue mountains, clear streamlets and lakes, and health-giving air of the mountainous country Altai. And we shall do our best to make your rest comfortable and pleasant. Don't worry about food, equipment, insurance, etc. We shall provide you with all the necessary things. You are to take only your personal belongings and good spirits.

Go ahead! We shall meet in Altai!
