Karakol

Entirely mountainous, Kyrgyzstan offers many possibilities when it comes to hiking and trekking. If you are an outdoor enthusiast, you will be delighted to discover its landscapes between glaciers, hiking or horse riding paths, high-altitude lakes… The lake Issyk Kul is famous for its crystal blue water; the Song Kul lake, whose beauty matches the former, is a more remote place you should also visit. In search of the most stunning mountain views ever?  Then, Tian Shan and Terskey mountains will be the answer. In a word, you will have plenty of options to choose from! Kyrgyzstan's cities might not be the first reason why tourists travel there, but still, some are worth a visit. Bishkek, the capital of the country, has the power to immerse your in the Kyrgyzstan’s culture. Osh, the second largest city in the country, is home to one of the biggest and busiest outdoor markets in Central Asia. But what make the country so special is probably the traditional semi-nomadic Kyrgyz life that you can come across, while traveling all over the country. If you want to try, it’s even possible to live like a nomad for a couple of days, and spend a night in a yurt!
