Journey notes

About this Journey

Early in the morning, we set off on horseback towards the Jumgal Valley. Our route climbs steadily to the Tuz-Ashuu Pass (3,224 m), offering a final panoramic view over Lake Son-Kul before we begin our descent into the lush Kilemche jailoo.

After lunch, there is time to explore the surrounding gorge on foot, enjoying the peaceful alpine landscapes. In the evening, dinner is served in a traditional setting. Overnight accommodation is provided in yurts during the summer season, and in a warm shepherd’s house during the winter, making this journey accessible all year round.
