Hiking is the biggest attraction for most travelers coming to Kyrgyzstan. The possibilities for her are practically limitless. In addition, the vast majority of the territory is accessible without any permission (outside the border areas), so you can roam the mountains as you like.
Hiking circuits & Trekking
Despite the fact that there are so many opportunities for hiking „official“ well-known treks, where you will meet some tourists, there are only a few. If you have a tent and a desire for adventure, you can practically invent your own treks here.
Classic Treks
Among the classic treks include wandering along Inylchek glacier or in the mountains above the town of Karakol. Another classic tourist destination in the country is Ala Archa just outside Bishkek.
Support on the trek
It is possible to arrange a trek horse to carry your backpacks. For example, in Karakol it is possible to arrange a guide to the mountains.
Mountains Climbing
Among the the highest tourist accessible mountains in Kyrgyzstan include Pik Uchitel, relatively easily accessible from the capital Bishkek.
Maps and orientation in the landscape
Road markings basically do not exist and quality maps are few. Before each trek, it is not a good idea to find out as much information as possible on the Internet, ideally with GPS coordinates. However, the paths are clearly trodden on the main trails.
