This 3-day cycling adventure offers a unique journey from the high mountains of the Alay Valley down toward the warmer landscapes of the Fergana Valley. The route combines dramatic mountain passes, remote shepherd areas, and traditional villages, giving cyclists the opportunity to experience the changing landscapes and cultures of southern Kyrgyzstan.
The tour begins in Sary-Mogol, a mountain village located at the foot of the famous Lenin Peak (7134 m). From here, cyclists ride across the scenic Tenizbay Pass, surrounded by wide alpine pastures and panoramic views of the Pamir-Alay mountain range. Long climbs lead to thrilling descents through wild mountain gorges and remote highland valleys rarely visited by tourists.
Along the way, travelers pass nomadic shepherd camps, summer pastures (jailoo), and small mountain settlements, where traditional Kyrgyz lifestyle can still be observed. Nights are spent in tent camps and local guesthouses, offering a mix of adventure and authentic local hospitality.
As the route continues, the landscape gradually changes from high alpine terrain to greener valleys and orchards around Maidan village, known for its apple and apricot trees. The final cycling stage leads along quieter roads toward Kyzyl-Kiya, before transferring to Osh, the historical gateway city of southern Kyrgyzstan.
