About this experience
Can you understand Kyrgyz culture in just one day? No, but you can get a glimpse of it. We will take you to the ethno-complex "Supara Chunkurchak" located in the Chunkurchak Gorge, where you will experience the beauty of Kyrgyz hospitality. And of course, you will enjoy the charm of the local nature: breathe fresh mountain air and relax from the city hustle and bustle.
What to expect
Yurts, Horses, and Mountains
Enjoy the enchanting mountain landscapes in one of the favorite relaxation spots of locals in the Chunkurchak Gorge. The famous ethno-complex "Supara Chunkurchak" offers you a chance to try local food, ride horses, and test your skills in archery. For hiking enthusiasts, there are two pleasant routes within the gorge ranging from 1.5 to 2 kilometers. And if you visit in the winter months, you can ski on the impressive mountains of Kyrgyzstan—an opportunity not to be missed.
Walking Route
We will pick you up from your hotel in Bishkek at 9 a.m., followed by a one-and-a-half-hour minibus ride to the gorge and the resort "Supara Chunkurchak." Along the way, you will drive through a colorful dirt serpentine road, admire the mountain ridges, and enjoy the fairytale panorama of the Chui Valley. Our guide will share interesting information about the history of these places. Once at the ethno-complex, you will have three hours of free time. Return to Bishkek at 3 p.m.
