🛖 🐴 🏔️ The most scenic road in Kyrgyzstan

Kyrgyzstan nature is truly amazing and unique and it has many gorgeous lakes. One of them is Kel Suu lake located high in the mountains. To get there you need to have a long drive but the views you will get during this ride are unbelievable. It’s like penetrating into the real Kyrgyzstan and to tell the truth it was one of the most beautiful road trips I’ve taken. The journey starts early morning and you need a special permission to enter that area, so don’t forget your passport with you. But after the sunrise my jar just dropped down: starting from mountains, horses and sheep and finishing with the yurts along the way and people living their life so far from the city. #scenicroadtrips #kyrgyzstantravel #kyrgyzstan

Must visit location of the lake road from Issyk Kul, near Toguzbulak, Kyrgyzstan. There is a T-junction where we stopped. The scenery here makes you just want to pull out a chair and brew a coffee and just watch the day go by. The landscape is littered with sheep, cows and horses. Lots of opportunity for see camping, remember to not start any wild fires! The perfect location to just absorb life passing by. #kyrgyzstan #roadtrip #landscape #mountains #issykkul #roadlesstravelled #travel #travel #nomadlife

Ala Archa National Park

Kyrgyzstan Road Trip: From Bishkek to Majestic Peaks and Timeless History 🌄🚗 Embark on an unforgettable road trip across Kyrgyzstan that blends epic outdoor adventures with centuries-old culture. With a local guide by your side, every mountain pass and ancient monument reveals a story, turning this 11-day journey into a true immersion in Central Asia’s natural wonder and heritage. Start in Bishkek, where modern city vibes meet leafy landscapes. Hit the open road to Ala Archa National Park—hike through alpine meadows, snap glacier views, and capture insta-worthy shots at the snowy peaks (try sunrise for misty drama). Next, wander among the ruins of Burana Tower, a Silk Road sentinel surrounded by wildflowers and sweeping valley vistas. The panoramic close-ups here are a must! Continue your adventure along winding roads to the dazzling lakes and valleys—each stop offers new shades of blue, rugged canyons, and untouched forests. Don’t miss the landforms for their surreal, layered rock colors; golden hour adds an extra glow for photography. Explore with comfy shoes and a waterproof jacket (weather is quick to change), and let your guide share the local legends for a richer experience. Key tips: Sunscreen and water are essential, and pack layers for mountain chills and sudden showers. Listen closely to your guide—they know hidden paths and view angles you’ll want for that perfect shot! #Kyrgyzstan #RoadTrip #NatureEscape #CulturalHeritage #MountainViews
