Mountain lake surrounded by peaks in the Altai

Belukha 4,506 m · turquoise lakes of Siberia

Altai

The Altai is where Siberia meets Central Asia: larch forests, turquoise glacial lakes and Belukha, the highest peak in Siberia at 4,506 m. Choose a horse-supported trek to the foot of its north face or a full summit expedition. Roads end early here, so expect real wilderness.
