Irkutsk - Nilova
pustyn village - Shumak springs - Sludyanka - Enhaluk canping-
Ulan Ude
Being
so remote and difficult to access, this "spa"
has retained its natural appearance. The way to the springs
is through mountain pass Shumakskii (2850 asl), along rivers
abundant with canyons and waterfalls. On the way you will
see magnificent scenery of Tunkinskaya valley and the East
Sayan. Shumak hot springs are surrounded by mountain ridges,
and are evidence to their volcanic origin .There are
more then 70 different mineral springs, some of them are
furhished so that people can take a bath, others are only
for drinking. There are some cabins, banya, and Buddhist
church, so you stay there will be both comfortable and interesting.
After
the trekking you will take a rest in Enchaluk camping on
the Lake Baikal - a good place for hiking, horse riding,
canoeing etc. In the end of this 12-days trip you will visit
Ulan Ude and Ivolginsky Datzan - center of Buddhism in Russia.
