Horse trekking tour in Kyrgyzstan mountains | Karakol to Ala-kul lake with Bulak Say
This 3 day 2 night horse trek in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan was THE most amazing experience of our entire trip!
Journey by horse through Alpine forests and snow capped mountains, trek up to the famous lake of Ala-kul. Stay in yurts, try local traditional food, bath in amazing wild hot springs, soak in everything that is Kyrgyzstan.
Day 1 Set off from Karakol around 9-10am. Trek by horse up the Altyn Arashan valley. Arrive in Altyn Arashan mid afternoon to be greeted with tea and snacks. Check into your comfortable yurt and explore the hot springs around the village:
Day 2 After and early start and a good breakfast trek by horse to a point near Ala-kul lake. At this point you have to do the last steep climb by foot to a beautiful ridge that overlooks Ala-kul lake. This last part of the route is too steep for the horses. It will take around 1 hour by foot. After some time enjoying Ala-kul lake, head back to the horses and ride back to Altyn Arashan village. When you return to Altyn Arashan enjoy the hotsprings again!
Day 3 After a relaxed start and breakfast trek by horseback back down the Altyn Arashan valley to your starting point.
Everything was so perfect! We are so happy we found Bulak-Say

Кыргызстан. Опасности. Впечатления. Алтын-Арашан. Каракол. Кругосветка #3
ИЗ СИБИРИ ПО МИРУ - история о большой мечте!
16 августа ‘19, мы покинули родной город, родную страну и отправились в КРУГОСВЕТНОЕ ПУТЕШЕСТВИЕ.
В этом эпизоде, мы прощаемся со степным Казахстаном и въезжаем в страну, невероятно красивых гор - в Кыргызстан.
Ближайшим городом от границы, оказался Каракол.
Городок очень уютный. Со всех сторон окружен горами.
Именно с них, мы и решили знакомиться со страной.
Обдумывая как и куда, на нас вышла местная тур-компания, которая предложила нам, 3-х дневный конный тур, в ущелье Алтын-Арашан. Мы конечно же, согласились.
За эти дни, мы приобрели колоссальное количество эмоций и опыта. Впервые, оседлали лошадей, поднялись на новую высоту, прочувствовали как бьет молния, переночевали в настоящих юртах, увидели как живут настоящие кочевники.
Спасибо компании:
Bulak say horseback and trekking, за предоставленную, возможность. Это было очень круто.

Kyrgyzstan Hot Spring | Hiking to a Secret Amazing Wild Hot Springs ( + HOW to find them!)
The hot springs of Altyn Arashan were a MASSIVE highlight for us on our trip!
There are 2 types of hot springs: man made hot springs in lovely wooden huts and the wild outdoor hot springs. We love the more natural hot springs, but both were pretty amazing! There is something about relaxing in the calm warm water as you watch the fierce cold river.
If you want to find these hot springs your adventure will probably start in Karakol. Karakol is a town on the South East corner of issyk kul lake and is an excellent starting point to hike to into the mountains. If you plan to visit Ala-kul mountain lake, Altyn Arashan is an ideal stopping point roughly halfway between Karakol and Ala-kul lake. You can spend the night in Altyn Arashan in one of the yurt camps and enjoy the EPIC hot springs.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 How to get to Altyn Arashan from Karakol:
Take a taxi from Karakol to Teploklyuchenka village (Теплоключенка)
Trek south up the Altyn Arashan valley towards Altyn-Arashan village (the 15-20km trek will probably take a full day)
As you arrive in Altyn Arashan village you will see several yurt camps by the river.
To find out about accommodation in Altyn Arashan check out our video:
You can also visit Altyn Arashan village as part of an epic horse trek with Bulak Say:

2 How to get to the secret WILD hotsprings from Altyn Arashan
If you are facing south (up the valley) as you arrive in Altyn Arashan you will see some yurt camps. Just before you get to the first yurt camp you need to turn back on yourself and find another path to the right that follows the river back down the valley. It is a small path, at points it gets pretty close to the river, at other points it winds along the steep slope by the river. As you walk down this path the river should be to your left. You need to walk for about 15 minutes along this path. When the path comes to an end you will see a small hotspring to your right, and you can climb up to a bigger one in front of you. The water is pretty warm.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 How to get to the relaxing man made hotsprings in Altyn Arashan
If you are coming from the Karakol direction, walk up through the village and cross to the bridge to the west side river. You will see VIP guest house. You can book sessions in the hotspring huts here. You may need to wait depending on how busy it is so get in there early. It costs 200 KGS (just over £2.00) for 40 minutes. There is a bit of space to change and shower in the hut and the water is very warm!
You may and up sharing the hotspring hut with other guests so remember to bring some swimwear! ;-)

Trekking to Ala Kul ( Kyrgyzstan ) - Journal of Nomads Adventure Tour part 2
Hiking to Ala Kul is not an easy hike but the views at the end are definitely worth the effort. This beautiful lake is located in the Tian shen mountains and two days of intense trekking in the mountains are required to access it.
During 10 days and together with a group of 15 beautiful people we explored the Kyrgyz mountains on horseback and on foot, camped at an altitude of 3500m near the beautiful lake of Ala Kul and stayed in the yurts of nomads where we tasted local dishes and learned more about the Kyrgyz nomadic culture. It was an intense and fantastic experience! Not only because we were in such a wonderful setting, but especially because we were in the company of a super fun international group! We couldn't be happier to have this awesome group of people joining our very first group tour! We are so so grateful!
It was quite an experience for us to organize such a group trip. We usually travel by ourselves and if something unexpected happens – which is usually the case when you go on an adventurous trip – we're only responsible for ourselves. This time we were also responsible for the well-being of 15 other people. But... everything went smoothly and everyone returned home with a big smile and new friends.

Kyrgyzstan 2017 /Trek Terský Alatau, Karakol, Ala Archa/
Začali jsme v oblasti Karakolu, kde jsme tradičně začli v Jety Oguz, ale po prvním sedle Teleti Pass, jsme zabočili do méně známého údolí vedoucí pod Pik Karakol. Zde jsme prošli přímo pod Pik Karakolem přes ledovce a sedlo On-Ter. Následně jsme mířili směrem k jezeru Ala Kul, kde jsme šli také méně známou cestou přes sedlo Cnernyye Kamn, jenž se nachází přímo nad Ala Kulem. Následně jsme od jezera sešli známou trasou dolů a do městečka Karakol se vydali UAZem.
Jeden den relaxu u největšího ledovcového jezera Issyk Kul a už jsme to směřovali do národního parku Ala Archa. Zde je možné (s vybavením) zlézt nějaké ty vršky. Nám počasí umožnilo pouze výstup na Pik Ucitel.

Trekking in Kyrgyzstan is so gorgeous, plus it's not that crowded! In the second part of my 8-day trek out of Karakol, we summit the toughest pass yet and finally see the famous Ala Kul lake, which is framed by glaciers and is the color of the sky.
We also descend into Karakol National Park, find a little bar hidden in a forest, and make some friends with the 'locals'.
This trek goes through Kyrgyzstan's Tian Shan Mountains in Central Asia and passes by the famous Ala Kul lake. In days 5-8, we finally see the lake, fly the drone over it, and finish the trek over the next couple of days.

Jyrgalan Valley Horse Trekking – Abenteuer Kirgistan #02
Am Freitag ging es bei strahlendem Sonnenschein von Karakol nach Jyrgalan. Hier lebten die Menschen bis in die neunziger noch vom Kohleabbau. Seitdem dieser aber zum Erliegen kam, versuchen die Menschen sich mit dem Tourismus eine neue Einkommensquelle zu erschließen.
Hier steckt alles noch in den Kinderschuhen aber die Menschen sind so herzlich und sehr bemüht, uns einen tollen Aufenthalt zu bescheren. Die zwei Tage dort waren ein Traum!
Am Freitag ging es auf dem Pferderücken zum Turnaly Lake, dem Kranichsee. Hier machten wir gerade Pause als sich plötzlich eine Herde halbwilder Pferde zu uns gesellte ???? Wie aus einem Wildwest Film! Und diese steppenartige Landschaft auch ????
Die Sonne brutzelt hier übrigens unerbittlich auf uns nieder, so dass wir uns lieber was langes drüber gezogen haben. Sonst wären wir jetzt wahrscheinlich krebsrot
Mal sehen welche Abenteuer noch in Kirgistan auf uns warten!
