Set in the Troitsko-Pecherskiy region, in the Komi Republic, the Columns of Erosion, or Manpupuner as they are known in Russia are one of the country’s most mysterious attractions. The “7 Strong Men” as the locals call them are 7 massive rock towers bursting out of a flat plateau. Their height, that reaches 42 meters, and their abnormal shapes make them inaccessible to even the most experienced rock-climbers.
Not much is known about these mysterious “7 Strong Men” and on an international level they are virtually unknown. Although very hard to reach and set in a harsh environment, Manpupuner offers a great sight to its visitors. Many say that while there you feel no need of water, food or rest, all you want to do is stare at these masterpieces of nature, where locals say spirits used to gather in ancient times.
