Charyn Canyon tour

Charyn Canyon (Sharyn in Kazakh) is located on the territory of the Charyn National Park and is composed of sedimentary rocks. Charyn Canyon is a miracle of the nature of Kazakhstan, one of the pearls of our country. This majestic canyon extends for a distance of 154 kilometers, and on its bottom flows one of the largest rivers of the Almaty region. For more than 12 million years wind, water and sand sculpted Charyn’s red sandstone to form the wonderful shapes and shades that vary from deep orange to light brown. The extremely steep rock faces of the Charyn canyon reach a depth of 300 meters and leaves all their visitors speechless.
