Experiences you have as you travel often hold the longest memories. As part of their research trips, our specialists seek out authentic ways to get to know Kyrgyzstan, and the best local guides. These activities reflect some of their best-loved experiences.
Ala Archa National Park
Towering over the park are the highest peaks of the Kyrgyz Alatau Range, including Korona Peak (4,860 m) and Semenov Tian Shansky (4,895 m), both higher than anything Europe has to offer.
Altyn Arashan Excursion
Close to Karakol is the stunning alpine Arashan gorge. This area offers some of the finest hiking in Kyrgyzstan, ranging from the pleasant four- to five-hour hike up the wooded valley from Ak Suu to the Altyn Arashan plateau, to six-day mountaineering expeditions to the summit of glacial Mt Palatka.
Jeti-脰g眉z Excursion
From Karakol a short 30-minute drive west along the lake brings you to the head of the Jeti-脰g眉z valley, where you head north toward Jeti-脰g眉z village. A few minutes up the road you reach Broken Heart Rock, the reverse side of the famous Seven Bulls, a tremendous red limestone formation towering above the village.
Bishkek City Tour
A tour of this congenial capital makes for an interesting and relaxing day. The city can offer a poignant National History Museum, with exhibits on Kyrgyz victims of Stalin, as well as some interesting displays on Kyrgyz applied arts.
