The Experience

This 4 Days and 3 Nights journey blends Kyrgyz nomad life with Issyk-Kul’s desert-like canyons and quiet beaches. You’ll climb to Son-Kul (3,016 m), sleep in warm yurts under an immense sky, and meet a traditional eagle hunter on the lake’s south shore. Distances are comfortable; the focus is culture, scenery, and simple outdoor time.


Facilities

Accommodation mixes yurt camps (rustic, stove-heated, shared facilities) and family-run guesthouses with private rooms. Hot dinners and breakfasts are included; road snacks + water are provided during drives. Electricity at yurts is limited (power banks recommended).


Activity

Expect easy walks at Son-Kul and Skazka Canyon, cultural visits, an eagle-hunter show, and optional horseback riding. Evenings are for tea, local music, and stargazing far from city lights.
