Geographical and Sporting Characteristics of the Area
The Barun-Khandagai valley is located in the Tunka Alps, 18 km from the Arshan settlement. Due to the lack of a trail in the valley, it is more convenient to access it through the Zun-Khandagai valley, which has an excellent trail, and then descend into Barun-Khandagai via a pass near the Dinosaur peak. Approach times:
- To the first overnight stay (from the beginning of the valley) — 8 hours
- Through the pass to the assault camp — 6 hours (see the map) The Zun-Khandagai valley has classified routes:
- on the Soan peak 20 and 46
- on the Dinosaur peak 4A (unclassified)
- traverse of the Eagle Khandagai 4B.
