Tour Route: Karakol – Fairytale Canyon/Skazka Canyon

Skaska Canyon, also known as Fairy Tale Canyon, is a geological wonderland located in southern Kyrgyzstan near the town of Toktogul. Its surreal landscape, sculpted by wind and water over millennia, features vibrant red and orange sandstone formations that evoke a sense of enchantment and wonder.

Golden Eagle hunting is an ancient and traditional form of hunting. It has deep historical roots and is an important aspect of the culture of the nomads of Central Asia. Gamebirds are trained from a young age and bond closely with hunters, creating a special bond between man and bird.
