Chon – Kemin – Kol – Kogur Lake (horseback riding).

In the morning after breakfast, the climb to Lake Kel-Kogul begins with a ride on horseback. The Chon-Kemin valley is covered with incredibly rich forests: coniferous forests with spruce, remnants of Tien Shan fur trees; mixed forests with aspen, willow and birch; and floodplains (or riverbeds) full of shrubs and deciduous trees. Here you can get away from the hustle and bustle and enjoy the beauty of the Kyrgyz mountains. A picnic is provided for lunch.

3-5 hours later, depending how experience you have in horse riding, on a clear day, you will be on the shore of a beautiful lake, reflecting the surrounding mountains, greenery and blue sky.

We camp by the lake, prepare dinner, sit around the fire, tell stories and sing songs.
