Tunkinsky National Park, National park in south central Siberia, Russia.
The park spans 1,183,662 hectares across the Irkut River valley, featuring mountain ranges, mineral springs, and alpine meadows between 668 and 3,172 meters elevation.
The Russian government established Tunkinsky National Park on June 27, 1991 to protect natural environments and develop ecological education in the Siberian region.
Indigenous Buryat communities maintain their traditional lifestyle in the fertile Irkut River valley, contributing to the regional cultural identity.
Visitors access the park through the town of Arshan, which provides accommodation, dining facilities, and serves as a base for hiking and mountaineering activities.
The park contains 127 named peaks, including Krilya Sovetov at 3,341 meters, and features over 100 mineral springs throughout the Shumak Valley.
