Excursion description

We are going to the north from Abakan, to Krasnoyarsk water reservoir, to the bank of Yenisei River.

Ecological and excursion complex Oglakhty (khak. Oglakh tag - Goat Mountain) is part of the Khakassian nature reserve, it’s located in a picturesque place near the confluence of the Yenisei and Tuba River.

The excursion starts in the visitor center of the reserve, where guests will hear about the most vivid events of Khakassian ancient history, styles of local rock painting and the unique archaeological discoveries made on the territory of Oglahty mountain range.

The highlight of the tour will be the rise of the hill “Forty Teeth” up 967 wooden steps (altitude difference 150 m). The long, but not difficult ascent will reward you with stunning views of the Krasnoyarsk reservoir, which open from the viewing platforms on the way. On the top you will also see the ancient rock art (petroglyphs) of age from 6000 to 1000 years.

Oglakhty is called a stone chronicle of the ancient history of Khakassia.
