What To Expect

The tour is designed for those avid trekkers looking for a real adventure, off the beaten trails.
During a trip, you will explore the untouched nature of the Northern Tien Shan Mountains with its snow covered peaks, highland lakes, clean rivers and huge waterfalls.
The trekking route is radial, so it starts and ends in Batan place. The main path crosses holes of Bartugul, Kairak and Temirtas along the upper timberline and comes up to Mountain Institute glacier where Turgen River springs from.
The way back follows down Turgen gorge along main river flow. Great views of main ridge Zailisky Alatau with its glaciers and high peaks appear from the path.
The area is wild`: there are almost no trails, signs, cellular connection and lodges. We carry all trekking aтв camping gear, and stay all nights in tents.
IMPORTANT: porter services are not included. It means that all the weight of group gear (tents, food, gas) will be divided between all members and will have to be carried all together.
