- Maly Canyon of River Charyn - Black Canyon
- Charyn Canyon - The journey will lead to one of Kazakhstan’s most remarkable natural wonders — Charyn Canyon. A brief stop (10-15 minutes) will be made en route at the enigmatic Black Canyon, known for its somber yet captivating scenery. Visitors can relish the tranquility and capture stunning photographs against the backdrop of contrasting rock formations.
Following this, the main highlight of the trip is Charyn Canyon. Often referred to as the “younger brother” of the Grand Canyon, it captivates with its red rock formations, sculpted by wind and time into unique shapes. There will be 1-2 hours to leisurely explore the renowned Valley of Castles, marveling at the towering cliffs that resemble ancient fortresses. The canyon is particularly stunning on sunny days, when sunlight dances on its walls, painting them in vibrant hues. This location offers unforgettable experiences and a sense of connection to the history of nature itself.
- Kolsai Lake - Witness one of Kazakhstan’s most scenic spots, Kolsai Lake. Depending on the weather, the itinerary may vary: starting with Kolsai, followed by Kaindy, then the Black Canyon, and concluding with Charyn Canyon.
- Lake Kaindy - Kaindy Lake is among Kazakhstan’s most extraordinary sites. Its emerald waters, ancient fir trees emerging from the depths, and the serene mountain surroundings create an atmosphere of true enchantment. This is a place where nature showcases its strength and beauty, leaving lasting impressions.

One amazing and adventurous trip to explore - This trip was beyond amazing! We had great experiences and discovered local culture.
We book our trip really last minute, and he didn’t had chance to find a guide and despite that we had amazing trip. I speak a little Russian but we managed to understand each other very well.
He was really considerate about us having good time. He took really really good photos from us, and believe me it’s har to find people who actually can take photos!
This trip wasn’t just trip where you go by car from one place to another, it was adventure! And it was amazing trip, like this is the kind of trip you enjoy talking to your friends and family what you experienced! This is definitely once in a lifetime time kind of trip and most of all it’s Worth it!
I have been different kind of trips all over the world, but this was the best one we ever had! You can see how local people live and just how everything comes together with them!
And what most important in many trips like this there are requirements for minimum participants. We were only two of us who participated for this trip and he still confirmed our booking and trip. It was amazing to have this experience just three of us and it was like private tour. Of course there were other people in those places but this trip was amazing to experience in small group.
So if you want to have amazing experience and trip that you will remember and have amazing memories and stories to tell, this trip is for you!
I highly recommend Kazakhstan_almaty_trip and we do not have nothing negative to say.
