Things to see and do Barskoon

It is one of the highest waterfalls in Kyrgyzstan, richer in torrents than in waterfalls by the way. 20 km south of Barskoon, at an altitude of 1,720 m, these waterfalls nestled at the bottom of a narrow gorge consist of three successive waterfalls, the largest of which is 33 m high. In the summer, many Kyrgyz people come here in search of freshness and the small road is quickly filled with a tight crowd elbowing their way to the best selfie. Jovial and good-natured atmosphere, authentic to perfection.

Shepherd's Way Trekking was founded in 1994 by a Kyrgyz family from the village of Barskoon. In order to promote Kyrgyz culture and control the tourist movement on their land, they have set up hikes with the riders' peoples.

What do they propose? 20 hiking trails ranging from 3 to 30 days. You can visit the Juuku Valley, the Ak-Shyiraq Gorge and the Silk Road. You will sleep under the tent and share the daily lives of Kyrgyz men.

Where is it? Kyrgyzstan.

Prices and conditions. The journey is at your expense. On site, count between $ 60 and $ 100 ½ per day, depending on the duration of your stay, the period and the hiking.
