Head of Strannik

You will spend 8 days among the majestic peaks of the Pamirs, alpine lakes, glaciers, and flowering meadows, get acquainted with the traditions of the Kyrgyz nomads, enjoy the silence and pristine nature.

But even in this remote corner of Kyrgyzstan, you won’t have to adjust to a typical camping lifestyle. You will be accommodated in permanent tents on the territory of the equipped camp with electricity, toilets and showers. The chefs will serve you delicious hot meals three times a day. You will just have to soak up the impressions!

You won’t need any special skills for this tour, but it is important to remember that being at a high altitude is associated with certain risks. Experienced instructors will teach you how to behave in the highlands.

Walk to the Achik-Tash valley cooking master class

Today you will have an easy walk through the Achik-Tash valley. You will see a scattering of beautiful lakes with a reflection of snow-white mountain peaks. You will also meet the grazing herds of yaks in the meadows.

Our walk will lead us to the picturesque Tulpar-Kol Lake. According to local legends, the lake is considered sacred: swimming, taking water, watering animals, or fishing here is forbidden. It’s believed that the waters have healing properties, and visiting this site requires pure intentions.

Then you’ll visit real Kyrgyz nomads living in yurts. You’ll get to know their way of life and traditions, and also see their national costumes and have a bright photo session. You can also ride a yak if you wish.

Upon returning to the camp, you’ll participate in an exciting master class on cooking national pilaf from nutritious Uzgen rice, which is grown only in Kyrgyzstan.

How great it is that everyone has the opportunity to see the Edelweiss meadow, famous among climbers, the snowy top of Lenin Peak, to walk along mountain paths, to feel what acclimatization to altitude is like and to take their heights! The living conditions, whether in a tent or in a yurt, are excellent! You need to be prepared for any weather in the summer (walking in the rain, hail, thunder and lightning - those are some impressions). The nature and views, regardless of the weather - there's nothing like it! We needed just one more day to simply admire the mountains and meditate!
