The Katun River, originating from the glaciers of the Altai Mountains, is a majestic waterway in Russia, flowing for 688 kilometers. Its name, meaning “woman” in the Altai language, reflects its significant presence in the region. The Katun carves through stunning landscapes, from remote, sparsely populated upper reaches to more populated areas downstream, where pine forests and settlements dot its banks.
Known for its ever-changing colors, the river appears milky gray in spring and summer due to glacial meltwater, transforming into a more transparent turquoise in the fall and winter, fed by groundwater. The Katun’s character varies, exhibiting both turbulent rapids and calmer stretches.
A popular destination for water tourism, the Katun offers rafting experiences for various skill levels, with numerous rapids and picturesque scenery. The river and its surrounding areas also provide opportunities for fishing and exploring the natural beauty of the Altai region. As it merges with the Biya River, the Katun forms the Ob, one of Russia’s major rivers.
