The only thing you need to do is to find the best type of accommodation appropriate for you and arrive in Altay Mountains. Staying at the camping or at a comfortable hotel you will be able either to keep the comfort and at the same time to feel a spirit of a wild nature Altay is so rich of.  

Altay Mountains region offers a wide range of accommodation: from luxury hotels full of comfort (single and double rooms or wooden houses with private bath or shower) to private cottages and campings where you either pay for a wood house or just pay for a place for your tent and settle in the camping.
