Thursday 1st – Saturday 10th August 2019: Kyrgyzstan

It’s the time when everything comes to life, you’ll see rapid kaleidoscope of flowering. This is a time when the canyon begins to revive. At sunrise, the towers and domes of Kamorchek light up with red and purple colors, which fade and shimmer at sunset. Scenic trails, winding between the walls of canyons, bring to the massive rock monoliths that play in the sun all shades of crimson, reddish-brown and orange colors. Above inherited from the past meanders tower countless rocks, rising to view mysterious city of gods and religions.

Trekking is different from other sorts of travel. Trekking gives travelers an up-close view of incredible scenery. It often allows them to interact with nature, doing anything from climbing a rock, passing across a mountain or entire mountain range.

We’ll meet real nomads who have preserved their traditions and carried them through the centuries of the history of Central Asia. We’ll try to learn some traditional food recipes and we’ll ride with gentle horses for long paths.
