A loop following Scythian's kurgans
Two days of easy ride on sand and dirty roads from the village of Kyzyl Suu, chef-lieu of the Jeti Oguz district, to Issyk Kul lake and back. On the way, we can observe kurgans, which are still keeping their secrets. But the spot of this program is the sandy and wild beaches of Kyzyl Suu and the hot sources.
Discover the wild beaches and the hot sources of Kyzyl Suu
This short discovery on horseback is carried out with a community of families from the region and is part of our eco-tourism development. This loop can be done all year round.

We arrived in Bishkek with no plans. We went to the Nomad's Land office and they were really helpful. They tailored a trip for us and the organisation was incredible. We got to do some horse trekking and some hiking with knowledgeable guides. We definitely recommend (100%!!). Greetings to all the team !
Dear Nomad's Land - especially Alex Johnson. You have helped us during preparation of our trip, arranging border zone permits, transportation to mountains, advise in arranging maps and also being a contact person in case of emergency. We had arranged most stuff over internet beforehand. It was generally very helpful and I would recommend to our friends Nomad's Land for tracking in Kyrgistan. And there is so much to see in that country yet. It would be great to visit Kyrgistan again. Thank you.
