Enjoy a hike through the park's pristine valleys, with opportunities for breathtaking photography of snow-capped peaks and rushing rivers. After the hike, continue to Supara Valley – a beautiful ethno-complex that recreates traditional Kyrgyz life. Explore reconstructed traditional dwellings, learn about Kyrgyz customs and crafts, and enjoy a delicious local meal in a stunning mountain setting. Then visit the Sky Bridge – a panoramic viewing platform offering spectacular views over Bishkek and the surrounding mountains. This modern attraction provides a perfect perspective of the capital and the Tian Shan range. Return to Bishkek for overnight at your hotel.

No horse riding experience is required! Our horses are calm and well-trained. Check into a cozy guesthouse nestled in the forest. Enjoy dinner and the peaceful mountain atmosphere.
