Son-Kul is one of the most famous high-mountain lakes in Kyrgyzstan. It is located at an altitude of 3016 m. above sea level.

Lake Son-Kul can only be reached only in the summer (3 mounth) the rest of the time the road is blocked by snow and ice.

In summer, Son-Kul is still cool. The average temperature is 15°C and at night it drops below zero. The yurts are equipped with small stoves that warm travelers at night. This makes Son-Kul a great place for those who want to try the life of a nomad.

Reviews

A lovely tour with Guliza!

Thank you Guliza for such a great tour of Bishkek! I really enjoyed the way you explained the history, especially about the Soviet period and earlier times, and also gave me a feel for everyday life in the city. Tasting local delicacies, riding the bus, and visiting the museum together made the day really special!

Hi Emie. Thank you for your feedback. I'm glad you enjoyed the tour.

Sightseeing from Bishkek

We loved our day trip 45 minutes out from Bishkek to Ala Archa NP. It is a must to grab a picnic lunch and head to this spectacular area. Day 2 with Guliza and once again she was a wonderful guide to have by our side. If you need an English speaking private guide in Bishkek then please contact her.
