Overview

The ride goes up Kargalinka Gorge, leaving the city behind quickly. Forest gives way to alpine meadows as you gain altitude. The trail narrows into a rutted path. The destination is a natural rock balcony - a shelf of stone hanging over a massive green valley. Hikers rarely make it this far, so it's quiet. Just wind and the hum of the motor. The climb is long and will test your legs, but the isolation and the view make it one of the more rewarding rides in the catalog.

What to Expect

  • Climb to nearly 3,000m
  • Natural rock shelf viewpoint
  • Almost zero tourists
  • Wind and silence at the top

"The Balcony viewpoint in Kargalinka gorge is jaw-dropping. You ride through narrow switchbacks and suddenly - infinite horizon."
