The Singing Barkhan is unique because it was formed many millennia ago by the displacement of the Big Kalkan volcano and the unique wind rose that allows the barkhan to remain in place for thousands of years. The barkhan is also special because it can produce its own special sound, “singing”, which is part of various legends.
The sacredness of this place in the desert is reflected in Paulo Coelho's novel Zaire. The action takes place in Kazakhstan, and the main character receives a revelation near a singing barchan. Travelers want to believe that if they climb the crest of the barchan, their dreams will come true.
You will have the opportunity to climb up the sand on the Barkhan, enjoy the stunning scenery from its summit and descend from the Barkhan.
Traveling by SUV will allow you to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, take great photos, enjoy the clean air and atmosphere around you.
