Details
Experience spectacular trekking through alpine meadows and wild pastures inhabited by Kyrgyz nomads, past gushing rivers and waterfalls, taking in panoramic views of Lake Issyk-Kul and the snow-capped Tian Shan range, meaning Mountains of Heaven. The first part of the walking route crosses a series of rugged, seldom-visited gorges, which only the most intrepid of outsiders have laid eyes on. The latter part crosses into Jety-Oguz Gorge, famed for its immense beauty. There’s also the chance to hike to the foot of Karakol Peak (the highest in the region) and there are all sorts of other delights besides the trek itself: rejuvenate in the thermal baths of Altyn Arashan, learn to make traditional lagman noodles in a family home, take a guided tour of Bishkek, and visit ancient sites including the Cholpon-Ata Petroglyphs.Aldo Kane Collection: A hand-selected range of adventures by our Brand Ambassador:“Kyrgyzstan is a true hidden gem. I’ve spent a month travelling around there, and I’m keen to go back. With sweeping gorges, hot springs, wildflower meadows and ancient petroglyphs to discover en route, rest assured the remote Tian Shan range leaves a lasting impression. The trip also takes you to a local family’s home so you can master the traditional lagman noodle dish!”
