Ak-Tash Yurt Camp

Ak-Tash (which means "white stone" in Kyrgyz) lies at the foot of the great forests of Chong Kyzyl Suu Valley. The red rock hills form an incredible contrast between the blue Issyk Kul lake and the large meadows covered with edelweiss. 

In summer, the Ak-Tash yurt camp provides a stopover for overnight stays if you come on horseback or on foot from the Jukku Valley or Jeti Oguz. 

In winter, yurts become a base camp for ski touring. It is situated 15km south from chef-lieu Kyzyl-Suu. An ideal place to enjoy the slopes of Siuttu Bulak, Giukiuro, Burgan-Suu, and the mountains overlooking the Kichi-Kyzyl-Suu Gorge.

The hot springs of Chong Kyzyl Suu are located 4km upstream, before reaching the geophysical station located 4km higher than the springs.
