HIKING ALA KUL LAKE in KYRGYZSTAN 🇰🇬

You may not be familiar with Ala Kul Lake, but that's where I come in. In this video, join me on a hike through Ala Kul Pass, offering a breathtaking view of Kyrgyzstan's most stunning lake, adorned with its mesmerizing turquoise glacier water.
Curious about my night in a budget-friendly tent at 3500m? Watch the video for the full experience.😊
All drone shots taken by my Kyrgyz friend I met along the way, Azamat.🙏🏻 Check out his IG (@ azamat_mw).
Thank you for your support!

    Always wanted to go to Kyrgyzstan, always a bit uncertain to do it alone. I'll try some solo treks in Europe before doing a trek there. Great video, viele Grüße from Belgium

    Kyrgyzstan is absolutely safe! And the people super duper lovely. This hike was also very doable if you’re a bit fit. By the way, I’m planning to do a group trip on kyrgyzstan in July. Maybe that’s something you might be interested in :)

    @@Journeyious thank you for your reply :) I have done quite a few treks, including some in full autonomy for 10days+, I like treks that are challenging, but this was always together with someone, so the main worry I have is the *solo* aspect. Where could I find the info on your trip in July?

I've seen many youtube videos of different travelers, but you on the nature is so much like myself. I literally have the same joy, happiness and thankful that you have when you get to these gorgeous nature landscaping. I dont comment much here, but you deserved. Happy new year Valerie! ♥
