  Tour description

A part of the road of this two-day trip lies at the height of 2300 – 2600 m above the sea level. Fans of the off road tours prefer this way because of its steep going up and down that make this route quite exciting. Driving along the plateau you can meet some shepherds on the Kazakh Zhailau (grazing land). There you may also see herds of horses, flocks of sheep, and herds of cows. Here, about 65 km of the way are the mountain roads with the beautiful views on the coniferous forests, snow – capped peaks and mountain valleys.
