Our first stop will be in about two hours, where you’ll witness the stunning sight of two powerful rivers merging. This magnificent location will add even more beauty and wonder to our adventure. The landscape outside the window will transform into sheer cliffs of incredible height, and the road will turn into a winding highway leading us to natural wonders.

Kok-Moynok Canyons

Imagine red and yellow sandstone formations shaped over thousands of years by erosion. This colorful location lies within the Boom Gorge, around 150 km from the capital. We’ll take a walk to the base of the upper mountains, where a cosmic view of this stunning landscape awaits us.

Kulamabel Pass and Meteorological Station

From the pass, a breathtaking panorama of the entire valley and surrounding mountains unfolds. This spot is especially popular among photographers and nature enthusiasts due to its unique beauty and incredible vistas. We’ll then continue climbing to a meteorological station located at 3,200 meters. This place is not only of scientific interest but also one of the most picturesque stops on our journey. Here, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views of mountain peaks and valleys, and experience the pure, refreshing mountain air.

Issyk-Kul — The Pearl of Kyrgyzstan

After finishing our mountain adventures, we’ll head to the magnificent Issyk-Kul Lake — the pride of the Kyrgyz people. We’ll take a stroll along the shore, enjoying the natural beauty and capturing stunning photos with the majestic mountain ranges in the background.
