Adventure Travel in Kyrgyzstan | Horse Trekking and Hiking Trip
Join us in Kyrgyzstan for adventure travel as we do a three day horse-trekking adventure and hiking trip along the south shore of Issyk-Kul departing from the town of Bokonbayevo. With our guide and dog friend we journey over hills, mountains and lakes along the way stopping off to stay overnight with locals Kyrgyz families in yurts and simple camps eating home cooked meals and drinking chai. Overall, it is the kind of rugged adventure travel that makes visiting Kyrgyzstan so appealing.

Adventure Travel in Kyrgyzstan | Horse Trekking and Hiking Trip video transcript:
Well it is our first full day in Kyrgyzstan. We're getting started right into the adventures. Yes. Our horses are here right in town. We're not even waiting until we get into the countryside. We're going to get on them right away and this is going to be awesome. This is what? A three day adventure. We're going to be staying in yurts.
Yeah, so we're going trekking along the south shore of Issyk-Kul lake (Ысык-Көл). Last time we were on the north shore so we'll be seeing a different side. I think the horses are waiting for us so let's hop on. Let's do it.
We have snow capped mountains up ahead.
So we're already making progress on the horses. Last night we slept in the town of Bokonbayevo (Бөкөнбаев) and my horse of course wants to eat.
So yeah, we just wandered around the town had a very relaxed afternoon and then this morning our guide came to pick us up and we are beginning the horse trek. We're on the south side of Issyk Kul Lake and last time we did Song Köl (Соңкөл) and we mostly hung around the north side of Issyk-Kol Lake (Иссык-Куль) as well so we'll be seeing a new part of the country.
So before lunch we're going to give you a quick tour of the camp. So basically we've arrived at someone's home. We're going to be staying in the yurt and we also have some outhouses over here.
It is lunchtime and we have a wonderful spread of food here. Yeah. Let's take a little tour. So we have the typical kind of an appetizer or even a dessert which is bread. And various kinds of jams. Jams, butter, creams. It looks like we have maybe a raspberry jam and apricot jam.
It looks wonderful and we have meat over here. Yes. Chai, yes.
Sam learned the word for thank you. The Kyrgyz word for thank you. rahmat saga (рахмат сага).
But what I love about Kyrgyz hospitality it is just that you always when you're invited into someone's home you get this wonderful spread of food. They are so generous. They always prepare more food than you could ever eat. And also your cup of tea is never empty. It is always being refilled.
Time for the grand tour. Time for a tour of our first yurt. So this is pretty cool. 1st yurt of this trip. We've slept in
yurts before. Yes. But seriously they pile so many mattresses and blankets there is no way this is by far the fanciest yurt we've ever been in because normally we've just slept on the ground.
now we're going hiking. Yeah, that is mountain life for you. Yeah. You have to be dressed for all kinds of weather and prepared for just about everything because one minute you're getting a hail storm and next minute it is beautiful for hiking. Yeah, and we've got a dog joining us.
we had a really nice dinner which we didn't film. Uh, that was pilaf or plov which is rice. Rice mixed with meat and other vegetables. And carrots. Carrots. Delicious.
And now there is a kökbörü match that is our favorite sport in Kyrgyzstan so we're going to go watch.
We are having a picnic. So we stopped by a little lake up on the mountainside. We have snow capped mountains right in front of us and we're going to have a nice little lunch with our dog friend.
Well good morning. It is the start of day three. We just finished having breakfast. We had some semolina with milk and some bread and tea. And now we're getting the horses all saddled up and I think we're riding into town. This is the final day so I believe we've got about four hours ahead of us and then the trek will be over.
This is part of our Travel in Kyrgyzstan video series showcasing Kyrgyz food, Kyrgyz culture and Kyrgyz cuisine.

Pro-tip: make sure to tell your guide to bring longer stirrups well in advance, or at least to make your stirrups as long as possible once you're there. Most locals tend to be on the short side, so if you don't adjust your stirrups, your legs will be bent at a very sharp angle resulting in hella sore knees. Especially relevant if you're tall or, errm, have freakishly long legs, I guess.

Hey there! Awesome video, and huge props to you for getting all the way to our part of the world (I come from Kazakhstan, but I've trekked to Issyk-Kul once). Very nice to see people coming here and having a good time! :) I wanted to ask for your opinion on horse riding training in the West vs. East. As in, I've done quite a bit of horse-trekking in the Altai mountains, and I've never received any training whatsoever. What the Kazakh do is just plop you on a horse and let you go - and boom, in 10 minutes you're (almost) not scared shitless anymore, and in about an hour you can easily take a tour of the village on horseback. And two hours later they take you on a trip to the mountains with tiny serpentine mudtrails, steep slopes and everything else. Sure, it takes a bit of time to work up the stamina (it's tough on your legs and knees and especially groin), and there are certain amazing skills you need to develop if you want to become a master, but it's not treated as something essentially hard at all. So I've always thought of horse riding as an an "easy to get into, hard to master" sort of thing. So imagine my shock when I found out about the "ride in a small circle while the trainer is holding a long reign" stuff, the long drills, the helmets, the "know your horse" stuff (in the Altai, while they have a lot of respect for their horses and communicate with them really well, they also actually let them roam wild for months at a time so as to not waste time and money feeding them). In the West, horse-riding is treated as something both dangerous and extremely hard to get into. I honestly get the impression that it is mostly done by horse-riding trainers who try to make themselves appear necessary and indispensable so as to sell more lessons. So what is your opinion on the matter? Do you get the same impression of the eastern VS. western horse culture as me? Did you ever get Western horse-riding training? If so, how did you like it?
@samuelandaudrey
5 жыл бұрын
Thank you! To be honest I think it has to do with liability and legal issues in those countries. Should an accident happen the person who is injured might try to sue the owner/trainer and if they can prove a lack of training they would be more likely to win a case. To be honest I appreciated the style in Kyrgyzstan more as we had a true adventure. A couple of times we jumped off of the horse for steep sections of the mountains because we didn't feel comfortable but mostly we just stayed on and we became much more comfortable because of it.
Spectacular droneage there guys!

How cold (or warm) was it? -I hope to visit Central Asia at some point (Kyrgyzstan/Kazakhstan/Uzbekistan/etc) and I'm trying to figure out when the best time of year to go is Your videos are great!

Thank you very much! We visited in the middle of June. The thunderstorms were not common (just the one afternoon) but any activities around the mountains meant you could experience quite a bit difference in temperature and weather all in the same day. For our hiking trips it was very hot by midday (with really strong sun) so we often kept our light jackets on to protect our skin but by morning and night it really cooled off and we needed to dress warm - sweaters and jackets. I think late spring or early fall might be the best time to go. That is really cool you're considering the region as a whole. We'd love to do a big trip there ourselves someday.

Hey dear Audrey and Samuel, I was checking your videos and thinking about going to Kyrgystan for a short vacation. I travel mostly alone and because of that I don't feel comfortable driving by myself in mountains and areas like that. By any chance can you clarify for me if there are any tours availabe, besides the ones from CBT, starting from Bishkek exploring the surrounding areas like Issyk Kul lake or Karakol? Do you think I can just stroll around Bishkek and find some tour agencies easily? Thanks for your videos and your kind help. :*

Thank you! That is awesome to hear! Definitely you can organize and arrange things upon arriving. Yeah, you'll find agencies in Bishkek and Karakol quite easily.

Please get rid of those glasses Sam. I mean if they were your grandpas or something I understand but if not it's time to lose em.

hey! I don't really know how much it would cost but budget hotel and meal a day would be ~30$ i guess :P if you go to countryside it would be very different. I have found some websites with info you might need. nomadicboys.com/mongolia-travel-costs/ www.budgetyourtrip.com/mongolia 1 USD = 2460 Mongolian Tugrugs today.

Hotel with meal a day 30$ is not much. Is everything there expensive??

GIZ F, guide speaking English may be expensive and rare, because of it if you don't speak Mongolian or at least Russian you should be ready spend much money.
Canadian?

To be honest fine. Most people in the tourism industry can speak some English.
