Mountain biking

See Part 2 Highlight (Next to it on the map for more info). Beautiful, remote and rugged connection between Bishkek - Almaty. Streams for water are there (August), terrain is rugged and Mountainbike or proper gravel bike is recommended! In the beginning it’s quite some asphalt but then it gets more remote. Terrain is constantly up and down. Plan 3,4 days for the whole journey from Bishkek to Almaty at least. If you are strong 2 days is possible but tough
