What's this trip about?

    This group adventure tour covers 2 beautiful highland regions in southern Kyrgyzstan. The route goes at altitudes of 2200 m - 5130 m along the picturesque mountainous terrain from the foot of the Alay Range throughout the Alay Valley to the snowy highlands under Lenin Peak. The mountain tour consists of two logical parts: trekking in the first half and ascents in the second. In the vicinity of the distinct mountain village of Kozho-Kelen the Blue Grotto, a 50-meter waterfall and grandiose red-orange cliffs are situated, which tourists will see on the first day of their trip to Kyrgyzstan. Next, you will have to take a simple mountain hike through the Jiptok pass (4185 m) and descent into the green Alay valley, from where you will get by comfortable transport straight to the cozy Yurt camp of Lenin Peak on the Еdelweiss Meadow (3600 m).  Here you will have a close acquaintance with the Pamir Highlands: leaded by an experienced mountain guide, you will not only explore the colourful surroundings of the Base Camp, but also make 2 full ascents to Petrovsky Peak (4700m) and Yukhin Peak (5130m). The tour is designed for a wide range of mountain tourists with good physical preparation, wishing to explore the picturesque areas of Pamir and who are also ready to climb the snowy five-thousand-meter summit, from where breathtaking views of the colossal wall of Lenin Peak and the endless Alay Valley are at your gaze.
