Tien-Shan Mountains are of great interest for touring by bicycle. It is possible to see a great variety of territory in a short period of time. Roads that have been constructed for geologists and shepherds are conducive to touring. As a rule there's very little traffic on these roads yet they take you into the heart of the mountains.
This itinerary is divided into two parts. The first section takes you to the eastern spurs of Terskey Ala-Too range to the Karkara canyon. You will spend 3 days exploring the spectacular canyons and the high passes of this region. Crossing passes of 3500m or more and descending to valleys below makes for fun and pretty cycling. The first section finishes on the shores of a lake where you will rest up in a guest house.
The second part of the trips takes you to Lake Son-Kul (3016m). To arrive there you start at Tosor gorge and follow old roads that are now used only by nomads. On the way you will get the chance to stop off at some of the traditional yurts in the region. From here you continue through more gorges and canyons, camping on the shoes of cool mountain springs and crossing high mountain passes.

"The aquamarine in the silver setting of mountains" - this is how the famous traveller Semionov-Tianshanski has characterised Issyk-Kul lake. It is the second largest mountain-lake (1,600 m above sea level) after Lake Titikaka in South America. By depth, (668 m) and water volume it is one of the biggest in the world. The average water temperature in Summer is 19-220C. We offer you to make a trip on a southern part of the most beautiful lake of Central Asia. Pedalling on your bike you will ride through gorges and canyons, camping on the shores of cool mountain springs and crossing mountain passes. As a prize will be a last night on a shore of Issyk-Kul lake - this Pearl of Kyrgyz nature.
