Itinerary description
This bike ride takes you through the scenic countryside between Karakol and Lake Issyk Kul. It starts on the main road and ends on a main road but in between it's nice and quiet on the back roads next to the lake and through the bucolic farmland and several small villages of Kyrgyzstan.
The ride can be shortened by turning left right before the village of Lipenka and more of the main road can be avoided by returning on the back roads between Ichke-Bulun and Konkino before joining the main road, 3M-06 to Karakol.

This tour until the beach is not worth it.
The villages are not specifically beautiful and the parallel ways to the main road are garbages. I do not recommend. The beach has no interest, i did not dare swim in it.
