Journey notes

About this Journey

Following breakfast, we set out from the shores of Song Kul Lake, embarking on a horseback ride to traverse the Uzbek Pass, boasting an elevation of 3450 meters. From this vantage point, we're treated to sweeping panoramic vistas of Song Kul Lake and the picturesque Jumgal Valley below. Descending, we journey to the village of Kyzart, passing numerous yurt camps nestled amidst the mountainside. After a satisfying lunch, we commence our journey back to Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan, traversing the scenic Boom Canyon. By late afternoon, we arrive back in Bishkek, concluding our memorable adventure.
