Sary-Oi Yurt-Camp

Kyrgyzstan


Situated on a hilltop overlooking a magnificent mountain panorama, two yurts run by a friendly local family make the perfect base for day hikes to waterfalls, lakes, and along wild river valleys; or as the start point from which to launch into CBT Osh/Alay's three multiday treks near Gulcha. It's best to reserve in advance through CBT or directly.

From the signed turnoff about 8km west of the Gulcha roundabout, it's 11km over a steadily deteriorating dirt road. The walk takes 3-4 hours or it's about 45 minutes by 4WD. Just keep going til the road ends, then it's across the stream and over the next hill.
