Tour description

Evenkia is not only the most beautiful and pollution-free region in Russia, but a place where there are many places of world importance, such as Sulomayskie rock pillars, the Putorana plateau, epicenter of Tunguska event, Geographical centre of Russia. It’s interesting that the territory of Evenkia is about 768 thousand km2, but the population is just 17 thousand people, so that having a trip you cannot meet a single person.

In 1908 above the territory of Central Siberia between the Kimchu River and Tunguska River a fireball over flew. Its flight was accompanied by sound and light and finished by powerful explosion with further felling of trees in interfluve of the rivers Kimchu and Khushmo – the tributaries of the Podkamennaya Tunguska. The explosion was at a height of 5-10 km at 7.14 a.m. according to the local time and was followed by an earthquake and blast waves. The epicentre of explosion can be seen even today – thousands of fallen trees with the roots to the centre. Now this territory is the State Nature Reserve Tungussky, which receives scientists from all over the world every year. Except scientists expeditions the epicenter can be visited by ordinary people.

We are sure that this divine nook on the Earth will leave a wonderful image of Evenkia land in your heart!

On your request the program may be changed: the route, duration, overnight places, included services. We can include boat trip into the route, fishing, hunting in Evenkia.
