About this trip
Five days based on the shore of Issyk-Kul, the vast alpine lake that dominates this part of Kyrgyzstan. It's one of the largest and deepest lakes in the world, and its water shifts between light and dark blue depending on the light.
This is a private, fully guided trip, so the pace and focus can be shaped around what you want to see and do around the lake.
Because the lake is so deep, it never fully freezes, even through the coldest winters, which makes it an interesting spot to visit off-season as well as in summer.
