Winter Sinskie Stolby (Golden Rocks) – a two-day tour that takes your breath away with its unique landscapes, flora and fauna encountered along the way. Travel to the site is an amazing adventure on asphalt, snowy off-road, ice and aufeis. The Sinskie Stolby is a natural wonder stretching along the riverbank for 80 km. The cliffs have various whimsical forms: pillars, spires and towers — and on many of them archaeologists and locals have found traces of ancient rock paintings up to 5,000 years old.

✨ What makes it special?

Grand UNESCO heritage in winter attire: You will see the majestic Sinskie cliffs, creating a mesmerizing natural phenomenon.
Expedition journey on all-terrain vehicles: a real adventure on snowy off-road, ice and aufeis aboard a powerful all-terrain vehicle for total immersion in the wild.
A touch of antiquity: rock paintings 5,000 years old: You will visit the “Andreevskaya” pisanitsa, where traces of ancient people’s drawings, left on the cliffs millennia ago, have been preserved.
Taiga romance all around: Overnight in a cozy cabin in the middle of the deep taiga, where you can watch the stars and possibly encounter wood bison during the excursion.
