Itinerary description
One of the coolest hikes I have done in Kyrgyzstan. The first 3.5 km is through a narrow gorge where after you reach a landscape of red sandstone. You simple explore by following the wash (dry creek) till you can go no further. Not recommended during a downpour! Excursion with the Trekking Union of Kyrgyzstan (www.tuk.kg)

Super nice to walk around in the red gorge!
It is not Shamshi. It is Konorchek Canyons.
