Very difficult
it was a amazing trail. I would recommend to climb the summit after an overnight stay in Ratzek.
Do you know any guide there?
Contact the Trekking Union of Kyrgyzstan (TUK), they would know somebody.
Technical difficulty - Difficult
Yet you said "there are no technical obstacles" - Can you please explain? Thanks
Well, it's "difficult" as there is 2,400 metres of elevation gain and steepish scree slope. For a hike going to 4,500 metres, even in Kyrgyzstan, one would expect technical obstacles such as snowfields, glaciers or objective dangers such as rockfall.
