The main landmarks are Tunka Valley, Uchastka, Ekhe-Bulnaiu and Eastern Sayan. Each deserves a short pause for both the details and the wider setting.

Getting there

Without a car
Travel from Irkutsk by bus to Arshan, Nilova Pustyn or another resort settlement in the Tunka Valley. A local taxi or pre-booked transfer may be required for the remote start near the trailhead. Because the start and finish are in different places, check the return service in advance, arrange a transfer or leave a second vehicle near the finish.
By car
From Irkutsk, take the R-258 to Kultuk and then the A-333 through the Tunka Valley. Mountain tracks and approaches towards Shumak are not suitable for a normal car throughout. Because the start and finish are in different places, check the return service in advance, arrange a transfer or leave a second vehicle near the finish.
Parking
Leave the car in official parking at Arshan, Nilova Pustyn, a tourist base or the last village. For a multi-day trip, confirm that long-stay parking is permitted.
