For our final adventure in Kyrgyzstan, we did the very popular multi-day trek to Ala Kul Lake! We did this hike independently, without a guide or porter. It was pretty easy to organize in Karakol where we were able to get any food and supplies necessary for the trek. Instead of doing this trek over 3 days as most do, we took things a bit slower and added an extra day so we could stay 1 night on the lake.

We hope you enjoy this 2 part series where we take you through each of the 4 days on our trek. :)

The first day of the trek to Ala Kul Lake was pretty uneventful. We hiked around 17KM and the trek took us through a beautiful valley where we followed a river, passed yurts and saw so many horses along the way. After a very cold river crossing that required taking off our boots, we made a short climb up to our first camp.

Day 2 was short but we made the steep climb up to the lake and got caught in a snow storm about half way up. We made it to the lake and set up camp as quickly as possible in the snow. After hiding out from the storm in our tent for a couple of hours, the weather cleared and we were greeted with an amazing view of Ala Kul Lake! It was even more beautiful than we were expecting!

Stay tuned for Part 2! :)
