Many interesting ski-touring routes.
The village of Arslanbob is unique. It is located in Jalal Abad Oblast, on the foothills of the "Ferghana" mountain range. This village is well known for its original walnut forests, but also for its rich nature, clean air and surrounding mountains. The population is predominantly of Uzbek origin, which makes it another peculiarity.
The Community based on tourism (CBT) of Arslanbob was the first regional community attracting skitourers and backcountry skiers. The community offers the accommodation and the food, the logistic and some guides have today get enough experience to accompaign you to the mountain side.
The climate in Arslanbob is particularly snowy. The clouds come from the south, and blocked by the Babash Ata massif (4428m.). The mountains surround the village with long meadows. At the end of the day, when we return to the village, we will ski through the walnut forest. The snowfall is abundant and the layers can reach 2 meters of snow. In the spring, it is possible to pitch the tents on the pastures, and to ski at the CBT pass until the end of April.
