After meeting the guide at your hotel you will go on a day off-road tour, during which you will visit several sights of the Tyub Karagan Peninsula, which are the closest to Aktau city. The tour route starts from Aktau and runs to Saur Canyon.
Saura is a coastal area of the Caspian Sea, where in a small canyon is hidden a unique "Black Pearl" of the Mangystau Peninsula - a small freshwater Saura Lake. The stony dry channel formed by seasonal watercourses is cut off by a ten-meter step that forms a waterfall unusual for these places during rainy periods. The depth of the lake is about five meters, which gives the water a dark color. The depth and constant recharge by ground water allow the relict freshwater turtle species to live here. In the morning, when the shore rocks are heated in the sun, the turtles crawl out to warm themselves up. The most amazing thing is that these freshwater turtles are repeatedly found in the Caspian coast, calmly swimming in the salt sea water.
Further you will drive to the opposite bank of Tyub-Karagan Peninsula, Zhygylgan Cape. After the walk, there will be one more short drive to the historical place - Shakpak-Ata underground mosque.
According to archaeologists, Shakpak-Ata underground mosque was built in the IX-X centuries. It was named after Shakpak-Ata, a Sufi healer of extraordinary power, who lived here with his students in a cave during enemy raids. People's rumors carried his fame everywhere, and there were no diseases he could not cure. Centuries have passed, but people still come here to cure either the body or the soul - the power of the ancient healer still saves the sick from various ailments. Shakpak-Ata is interesting from several points of view: architecturally, because it is a space carved into a solid rock and historically, because it is erected by existed historical personality. An impressive number of legends and myths surround this sacred place and people are worshipping it for centuries.
After sightseeing at Shakpak-Ata mosque, you will have a lunch (picnic). Then, transfer to Torysh place (about 50 km).
Torysh or the Valley of Stone Balls. According to one of the local legends, hordes of enemies came to the Mangystau expanses, covering the land like locusts. The inhabitants turned to the heavens in prayer for help and were heard. The heavens opened up with torrents of rain, thunder and lightning. In an instant, all enemies turned to stone. So appeared in the expanses of Mangystau endless fields and ridges of unusual stone formations - spherical concretions. Their size reaches 3-4 meters in diameter, some are even larger. The concretions form bizarre heaps of balls, eggs, mushrooms, cylinders and animals.
After sightseeing at The Valley of Stone Balls, you will have a 10 minute drive to unknown canyon of Akespe. Sightseeing in the canyon and driving to Sherkala Mount. Walking in the caves, and then a short transfer to the mountain massif of Airakty, from where, after a short walk, you will return to Aktau.
The legendary Sherkala Mount is a natural symbol of Mangystau. From a certain point of view it looks like a giant yurt set by mythical nomadic giants in the folds of the Akmysh terrain. Sherkala Mount is a large remnant of unusual shapes, which emerged during the formation of mountain valleys near Karatau as a result of the rise of land from the sea depths. One of the legends about the Sherkala says that once upon a time valiant knights were defended there from hordes of enemies. They fought like tigers. The last defenders of the mountain had hid in the underground passages inside the mountain and remained in them forever. That is how the name of this stronghold of heroism and independence appeared - the Sherkala or the city of tigers.
