Nowadays the tourists can follow exactly the same path that ancient nomads followed crossing Tuva from the east to the west and reaching Khakassia. The route will go through the mountain pass. We visit places which are considered to be “energetically powerful” and thus sacred for locals.

Before lunch, we stop near a breathtaking mountain Khairyka - one of the sacred places in Tuva. In 1992 it was chosen by the 14th Dalai Lama to be an energetically powerful place. Once a year local shamans come here to get energy, strengthen and purify their spirits.

Picnic lunch will be provided on the grass, next to a Buddha stela.

We will see the centre of Buddhist culture, a ruined temple Ustuu-Khuree.

Khakassia begins after the Sayan pass. The mountains here are covered with fabulous cedar taiga. We spend the next two days in the taiga camp “Snow Leopard” built on the banks of the river Stoktysh.

Accommodation in the camp Snow Leopard.

Breakfast at the yurt camp, lunch picnic, dinner at the camp.
