Subjects : The main subject is certainly the canyon (which was once a seabed) with its rock formations with colors ranging from white to red. Along the way you can come across dromedaries and birds as well as the site of Gozli Ata, a pilgrimage destination.

Recommended equipment : Wide angle to capture it in its entirety and telephoto for details or more distant formations.

Best months : If you decide to sleep in a tent, it is better in late spring or summer. In winter, temperatures can also be very cold.

How to get there : Starting from Turkmenbashi it is about two hours of driving (160km) eastwards, mostly on a sandy dirt road.

Visits : Free admission. You can safely camp on the hill for the night, paying attention to the wind.
