We start from Bishkek at 8 AM and head to Issyk-Kul lake - the second biggest alpine lake in the world after Titicaca in South America. This lake is also known as the pearl of Kyrgyzstan, its altitude is 1607 m above sea level. En route we stop to visit Konorchek canyons and we will make a walk of 3-4 hours there and back to have a beautiful view to the landscapes. Then we continue our way to Issyk-Kul, arrive to Cholpon-Ata town situated on the north shore of the lake. Visit to the open-air museum of petroglyphs (stone drawings) dated from 2000 BC to 4th century AD. Accommodation in a guest house in Cholpon-Ata.

Depart from Cholpon-Ata to Grigoriev gorge, also situated in the north of the lake. This gorge is largely known by its magnificent nature and Tien-Shan firs. Walking to the Semenov gorge, that is adjacent, by admiring incredible views, and we continue our road to Karakol town - the administrative centre of Issyk-Kul region. There we have 2 places of interest - The Holy Trinity Church, constructed by Russian in 19th century and made of wood, and The Dungan Mosque, made without using any nails. Accommodation in a guest house in Karakol.

We continue by going along the south short of Issyk-Kul.
