Itinerary description
This track is better than the other one I uploaded. We stayed on the trail for the whole hike. Again a hike with the Trekking Union of Kyrgyzstan (www.tuk.kg).
From later experience I know that you can continue up the valley, you have to stay LOW shortly after leaving the boulder and then a reasonable trail continues up the valley. Great views!
PS: I only left my first track from this hike, so that I could leave you 12 pictures from this scenic hike!

Thank you for sharing! Could you please tell me more about the continuation of this track? Thank you!
Great looking loop! Please describe the river crossing at the top. Was this a dry or wet crossing? Possible with kids??
Rybart - The river crossing is on the bridge pictured in the fourth picture. Most people prefer to crawl across the bridge for safety reasons. Regarding the kids it depends on their age and skills, small kids would strongly dislike an 18 km hike!
That photo speaks a thousand words. Many thanks for sharing. I'll leave the kids home for this one, but really want to try this loop on MTB. The trick will be hauling it across that bridge...
