Admire the natural masterpiece - the mysterious stone giant of Russia

The Manpupuner Weathering Columns are a group of seven stone columns 30–42 meters high, located in the western Ural Mountains in the Troitsko–Pechorsky District of the Komi Republic in Russia. It is one of the Seven Wonders of Russia and a popular tourist attraction.

To be able to admire this wonder, visitors have to overcome many difficulties. Tourists can only reach this place by helicopter or walk dozens of kilometers through the wilderness. The Manpupuner rock complex is still very wild and little affected by humans.
