Canyon de Yangykala / Yangykala Canyon
Avec des bandes de roche rose, rouge et jaune qui zèbrent les parois abruptes du canyon, Yangykala est un site époustouflant, l’un des plus beaux du pays. Son isolement dans le désert ajoute à sa splendeur naturelle ; peu de Turkmènes en connaissent l’existence. Les canyons et les falaises s’étirent sur 25 km vers le bassin de Garagogazköl et se situent approximativement à 165 km au nord de Balkanabat et à 160 km à l’est de Turkmenbachi, facilitant le détour par Yangykala entre les deux villes. Vous pouvez camper sur le plateau venteux au-dessus du canyon.
