Our Wildest trip yet.
Inspired by the iconic Silk Road Mountain race, we’ve worked with its founder to develop special 8 day gravel/MTB route trip the country’s heartland. We’ll ride through glacial valleys, over high mountain passes, and around the incredible high alpine lake of Son Kul sitting above 3000m.

Itinerary
Meeting Point: Bishkek
End Point: Bishkek
We have an incredible adventure ahead of us, beginning with dinner together in Kyrgyzstan’s vibrant capital Bishkek. We’ll talk about the trip, get a good nights sleep, and the next day load our built bikes on to a van for a 3 hour transfer to our proper start point in Kochkor. There’ll be time for a shakedown ride and some gentle altitude acclimatisation, before our adventure begins proper on the morning of day 3.
Ahead of us, we have seven big days of riding (with a chance for a gentler day on day 6!), as we move through the lush Karakol valley, through the “red bowl” village of Kyzl-Oi and down the narrow gorge of the Kokomeren River, and finally up to iconic Son Kul lake. We finish with a thrilling descent to our end point in Jangay-Talap where we’ll meet our transfer back to Bishkek for a final farewell dinner together
Along the way we’ll wild camp (3 nights), sleep in yurt camps (2 nights) and local homestays (1 night), with our nights in Bishkek (2) and Kochkor (1) enjoying a little bit more modern comfort. Thanks to our support van, there’s no need to carry your camping gear - just the things you need for your ride. Our meals will be simple and filling affairs, cooked by our support crew over the campfire, or by the locals that are hosting us. This trip is a unique opportunity to relish the simplicity of camp life and disconnection.
-
Sleep - 3* hotel Bishkek
Breakfast/Dinner - Not included/Included
Today we’ll meet at our hotel in Bishkek for the start of our trip, and share dinner together in one of the cities great restaurants. Don’t worry if your flight arrives late - you can meet us the next morning if needed.
-
Sleep: 2* hotel/guesthouse
Breakfast/Dinner: Included/Included
We’ll have time in the morning to build bikes and store any luggage we don’t need for the week. We’ll then load our bikes up on to our support van racks, and transfer 3.5 hours to the village of Kochkor, situated at 1800m. We’ll make time on the drive, or in Kockhor for a shakedown ride to make sure our bikes are all set, and have time for some gentle altitude acclimatisation before dinner together and a good night sleep before our ride begins tomorrow!
-
Sleep: Wild camp
Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner: All included
Today we begin our bike adventure! We’ll roll out from Kockhor, soon picking up a dirt road that marks the start of the Karakol valley, our home for much of the next 3 days. We’ll ride through a couple of small villages, getting our first glimpse of truly rural Kyrgyzsatn, before leaving settlements behind as the valley gets wilder and more stunning. We’ll be gradually climbing all day, but with a friendly gradient. We’ll aim for the bottom of Kegeti pass for our wild camp for the evening, surrounded by high peaks, and share dinner at camp. Tomorrow, we head over the pass!
-
Sleep: Wild camp
Breakfast/lunch/dinner: All included, camp style.
After packing up our tents and breakfast at camp, we continue our ride through the valley. The gradient kicks in for the last 400m of the climb, and no doubt some of us will be walking the last part! But eventually, we will make the ascent over Karakol pass at almost 3400m - our high point of the week. It’s a beautiful descent into a valley that feels completely different. We’ll wild camp again around 30km after the pass, enjoying another night of disconnection with the mountains for company.
-
Sleep - Guesthouse, Kyzol Oy
Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner: Camp breakfast/trailside lunch/dinner at guesthouse
We continue riding through the valley, on a very gently descending track (but don’t be fooled by the elevation profile like we were - there’ll be plenty of pedalling involved!). We’ll start to see more signs of civilisation, and eventually we join the gravel road hat take us to the village of Kojomkul and on to Kyzyl Oi. We’ll be cursing the washboard for a while, but soon the scenery distracts us as the downhill gradient increases and we ride through a beautiful narrow gorge alongside the raging Susamyr river and towards our home for the night in Kyzol Oi. Tonight we’ll be staying with locals in homestays, and will eat with the families. Our group will likely be spread out amongst a few of the villages. Tonight we sleep in beds and have our first shower since Kochkor!
-
Sleep: Wild Camp
Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner: Guesthouse breakfast, trailside lunch, camp dinner.
We’ll savour waking up in a bed and enjoy breakfast at our guesthouses, before finishing our descent through the red rock valley. We’ll hit smooth tarmac for a while, aand savour some rare smooth and speedy miles! Today we begin our climb up to Son Kul lake, and we’ll soon be back on the dirt, riding up through the Karakeche valley, aiming for a wild camp on a quiet side valley.
-
Sleeping - Yurt Camp
Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner - Camp breakfast, trailside lunch, dinner at Yurt Camp.
We’ll aim to roll out early to beat the heat and complete our climb up to Son Kul. Joining the main climb, we’ll ride pass Karakeche mine after 10km or so, from where the trail will quietens and becomes more beautiful as we continue towards the pass. We stay high for the rest of the days riding, encountering families with their herds of horses and cows that graze on the high plateau around Son Kul lake. It’s fun riding, and eventually we get a glimpse of the highlight of the week - Son Kul lake, and our home at a Yurt Camp on its shore. We’ll have dinner at camp, and a chance to watch sunset in this special place. Our big climbs are done for the week - hurrah!
-
Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner: All included. Breakfast at yurt camp, trail lunch, dinner at yurt camp.
No packing today! We’ll stay in the same place for two night. Today there’s an opportunity for big loop ride around Son Kul lake. It’s a beautiful ride, and we’ll encounter the different faces of the lake today - an emerging tourist infrastructure in some pockets, traditional farming and grazing, families living in yurts for the summer, and the wild side on the west. If you feel like a more relaxed day, you can do a shorter out and back ride, and enjoy relaxing by the the lake instead.
Dinner will be at our yurt camp again tonight.
-
Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner: All included. Breakfast at yurt camp, trail lunch, dinner in Bishkek.
Our last day of riding, and it’s a special one! We’ll aim for an early start, and say farewell to Son Kul as we begin our final little climb of the week up to Moldo Ashu pass at 3200m. This last stretch of riding is one of our highlights of the week, with big mountain views and endless Alpine switchbacks down into the long valley that will take us to our end point in Jangay Talap at 1500m. Here we’ll end our ride, and load our bikes back on to the vans for a transfer back to Bihkek ( 6 hours). We’ll stop for lunch on the way, and arrive back to the big city in time for a late dinner together, and a night in a comfortable hotel (with hot showers and wifi!). Depending on your flight time tomorrow, you may want to pack your bike up this evening (time before dinner will be limited), or wait until tomorrow.

Accomodation & Food
Accommodation
This trip is all about embracing the wild wild landscapes, simple living, sharing local interactions and experiencing Kyrgyz hospitality. Our trip will be bookended by nights in modern, comfortable hotels, and in between we’ll alternate between wild camping, local homestays, and yurt camps. They’re magical ways to experience real Kyrgyzstan life.
For our wild camping nights, riders should bring their own camping gear (or hire from us), and will be responsible for pitching and taking down their own tent. Camping gear will be transported in our support vehicle. We won’t have access to showers or toilets on our wild camping nights, but we’ll educate you on tips for wild loo-ing, and bring a shovel! We’ll have a natural water source such as a river available for washing and drinking water. Riders should be aware that we will be camping in wild mountain landscapes, often with no shelter apart from our tents!
Yurt camps and home stays will feature beds, and have plumbed toilets, showers, and potentially even wifi, but these can be unreliable. It’s best to prepare for traditional long drop toilets, cold showers, and off-grid living, and be pleasantly surprised if you have the luxuries!
Food
Breakfast is included everyday. This will be a mixture of simple camp breakfasts, breakfasts at our hotels, or prepared by our Yurt camp and homestay hosts. Breakfasts tend to feature eggs or local porridge, and bread with locally produced jams, with tea.
Dinner is included every. night. In Bishkek, we will have a chance to sample Kyrgyz food in a modern restaurant, and in Kochkor we’ll eat at a simple local restaurant. On our wild camp nights, our support crew may prepare a simple but filling camp meal such as Plof, or we’ll enjoy filling and tasty expedition meals. At our homestay night, we’ll eat dinner prepared by the family, and at our yurt camp at Son Kul, we’ll eat dinner prepared by our hosts in their dining yurt.
Lunches are included on our seven riding days, will be simple trail side picnics, with bread, cheese and jams, with occasional lunches at local yurt camps or simple roadside eateries.
We will pass on dietary requirements given at booking, but due to the very limited cooking spaces of local families, it may not be possible to accommodate serious allergies on this trip. Bread, cheese and eggs play a heavy part in Kyrgyz food, and as such gluten free and vegan riders may find choices very limited. We may recommend bringing some supplements (such as GF bread) with you from home - we’ll share requirements with our local support team closer to the time and advise participants where this is the case.
About the riding
Challenge Level
We’ve rated this trip as a 4/5 on challenge level. This trip is apart of our WILDER series - bikepacking trips in wild landscapes that go that little bit further. Longer days, bigger climbs, more thrilling descents, wilder terrain, more solitutde, and even more memories to be made. With multiple days of 70+km, 70+% off-road terrain, big off-road climbs and descents, this a trip well suited to experienced gravel riders who love long days in the saddle and some embrace some chunkier gravel terrain.
Terrain
The riding on this trip is around 75% off-road, predominantly on double track trails, of mixed quality. We’ll have stretches of well maintained gravel roads, but also some trails that can be rockier and looser/rougher in places. There are some long and occasionally steep downhill rides, that may vary in quality in places (e.g. washed out, rockier) and require confidence in descending on off-road terrain. There will be some sections of washboard (corrugated) gravel roads.
On some days, the tracks will be more technical, with features such as washed out channels, larger rubble and rocks, or clay. The route is entirely rideable by confident off-raod riders, though altitude can make some of the steeper sections towards the end of passes feel much harder than they would normally, and likely we’ll all be walking at some point!
Amongst the off-road sections, we’ll also have some smooth tarmac riding, where we’ll enjoy a chance to make some quick miles or elevation!
Climbing
Climbing is a significant contributor to this trip’s challenge level, with multiple days featuring an elevation gain of around 1000 - 1500m . Our days of significant climbing tend to be one big climbs, with some undulating around it. Most of our climbing is on off-road terrain, and they tend to have decent gradients, though there are often some steeper sections towards the top.
Most of our big descents are off-road, and require confidence and skill in off-road descending.
Daily Distances
Our average riding day is around 70km, with a couple of shorter days (that pack in more climbing!) and one bigger (optional) day of 90km that is relatively flat. These will be mostly off-road miles. Komoot suggests an average moving time per day of around 7 hours in the saddle.
Remoteness, altitude and weather
This is one of our more remote and wild trips, with lots of riding in areas that do not have many shelter options. Most days have at least one place to stop for a simple local shop or yurt camp (except day 2 and day 5), but shelter outside of these regroup stops is very limited.
Much of the riding is at higher elevations, with multiple passes over 3000m. Altitude can make riding, particularly climbing, feel much harder than it would at low level, and altitude sickness needs to be taken seriously. We have built in acclimatisation in to our first few days, and we’ll be gradually increasing elevation over the first 3 days.
Riders should be comfortable with long days outside, whatever the weather! We are riding in high mountain terrain, and whilst this is the best time of year for clear days, afternoon rain and thunderstorms can be a feature. Conversely, it can be very hot at lower elevations and on climbs. Our guide team will monitor the weather and make route adjustments as needed.
Our whole route is accessible by our support vehicle, which will be our main point of help in case of an incident. There is no Mountain rescue in Kyrgyzstan, and access to emergency medical care will take much longer here than we would be used to in Europe.
Support style
Our SITW Bikepacking trips aim to strike the perfect balance of freedom and support. Riders are free to ride the routes at their own pace or with the guide and group, and we will set regroup points along the route.
Guiding
There will be two bike based guides out on the bike, moving back and forth amongst the group, generally with one towards the front and one towards the back of the group. Our guides are qualified first aiders and experienced mechanics and can help troubleshoot issues on the trail. Riders should equipped with their own navigation and not rely on following a guide for directions. Each participant will be provided with a specially curated collection of routes and route briefings via Komoot, to enable self supported navigation, and we will set regroup points along the route. In case of poorer weather, or in wilder route sections without clear regroup points, we may adapt our riding style and ask riders to stay behind the lead bike guide for some sections.
Support
In addition to the bike based guides, this trip has a local driver (male) in a 4 x 4 support vehicle to assist the group in case of issues (mechanicals, injury etc). This should not not be viewed as a daily shuttle option, but will meet us at key points along the route to check in and make sure we have what we need, and provide assistance and rider shuttles where needed.
Bikes & bike hire
Bike hire is not included as standard in this trip, and riders should plan to bring their own bike or hire locally. There'll be space to rebuild the bikes at our starting hotel, and we arrange storage of bike boxes whilst on the trip to meet us at the end of our trip.
Recommended bike
We would recommend a hardtail MTB as the ideal bike for this trip, or a thick tyre gravel bike/rigid mountain ONLY if you are very experienced riding chunkier off-road terrain with it, including steep and loose descents. This should have a good gearing range, and minimum of 50mm tyres.
Bike hire
Bike hire is available locally, but they will be entry level hardtail MTB’s. You can add this to your trip at booking, and we’ll arrange for the bikes to be delivered and collected from our start point.
Travelling with your bike
Check your airlines bike carriage policy for weight and size restrictions. Some airlines will allow them as part of their checked in baggage allowance (e.g. British Airways), but most require a bike to be added as a specific piece of Sports Luggage (easyjet, ryanair, wizzair, Jet2 etc) , but often you get a higher weight allowance. Usually costs in the region of £40 -£60.
Your bike box/bag can be stored whilst on the trip.
What spares and tools to bring
After leaving Bishkek, we will not pass any bike shops on the ride, and riders should be equipped with basic spares and tools specific for their bike, to increase the chance that we can fix stuff on the trail.
2 x spare tubes and patches
Small pump
Tubeless plugs/spare sealant if running tubeless tyres
Multitool with what you need for your bike e.g. allen keys
Spare set of brake pads (specific for your bike)
We also recommend bringing a few spares that are specific to your bike. We don’t expect you to know how to fit these! But having them to hand can mean our team or local bike shop is better able to get you back on the road.
Chain quick link
Spare derailleur hanger
Extra brake pads just in case!
FAQs
-
Please do not book your travel until we have confirmed the minimum trip number has been met.
Our cycling trip starts and ends in Bishkek, which has the country’s main airport. Most flights from Europe and US transfer in Istanbul, with Turkish Airlines and Pegasus Airlines being the main airlines from the UK. It’s worth factoring in that Turkish Airlines charge a bike fee per leg
Outward flight
You can arrive anytime on day 1 - ideally in time to join us for dinner, though as long as you are able to be ready to build your bike on the early morning of Day 2, that’s fine.
We’d recommend building in a good transfer time to reduce the likelihood of luggage transfer issues.
Return Flight
You can fly anytime on or after our last day (D10), though be aware there will be very limited time on D9 to pack bikes unless you skip dinner in Bishkek or stay up late!
Airport Transfer
It’s easy to get a taxi to/from the airport. You can pre-arrange a transfer through our start hotel, or download the app YANDEX which is like a local Uber. Cost is around $20.
-
You can secure your spot by paying a £300 deposit, which is refundable up to the point that we confirm the trip minimum numbers have been met. Once the trip is confirmed, the deposit is not refundable. The remaining balance is due 60 days before the trip by bank transfer. Cancellation between 60 days and 28 days, you’ll get 50% back. Cancellation within 28 days is non-refundable, but you can transfer your booking to another person should you find one. View the full booking terms and conditions here.
We highly recommend taking out travel insurance at the point of booking to cover in case of cancellation or curtailment.
-
We’ll have a max group size of 16, minimum group size of 8 to run.
-
We will help to pass any dietary requirements to places that we eat, Unfortunately it may not always be possible for them to accommodate serious allergies due to their limited kitchen space. We’ll try to work with you to find solutions. You can let us know any dietary requirements at time of booking. If you have serious allergies, please email us before booking on hello@sistersinthewild.com.
-
INSURANCE Travel insurance is compulsory on all of our trips Your insurance must include adequate protection for overseas medical treatment, evacuation or repatriation, your baggage and equipment, and the specific activities (for example, multi day off-road cycling) involved on your SITW trip. We highly recommend that you book travel insurance as soon as you book your trip. We also highly recommend taking out a policy which also includes personal liability, cancellation and cover in the event you are unable to join your trip due to illness or injury, curtailment, loss of luggage or personal effects, or for any other reason.
E.g. with Yellow Jersey, Bikmo, Laka
-
In order to make the most of the riding on offer, we’d suggest that you are comfortable riding 45+ miles in a day in hilly off-road terrain, for a few days on the run. Riding a loaded bike takes a little more effort, so we’d recommend trying some practice rides of 50 miles + with some weight/luggage on your bike. You should be comfortable with off-road climbing and descending.
Feel free to drop us an email hello@sistersinthewild.com if you have any questions on this.
-
Yes, you can book directly with our starting/ending hotel if you wish to stay earlier/late. We’ll share our hotel info once the trip is confirmed. We’d highly recommend staying an extra day in Bishkek to make your packing up more relaxing.
If you arrive earlier than the hotels check in time, you may wish to book an early check in or an additional night before. Contact the hotel directly to see if this is possible.
-
Check your airlines or train/bus bike carriage policy.
Some airlines allow bikes to be carried as part of their standard baggage allowance e.g. Lufthansa/BA. Most airlines require a bike to be added as a specific piece of Sports Luggage, but often you get a higher weight allowance. Usually costs in the region of £40 - 50.
Train/bus rules are dependent on carrier with some requiring bikes to be packed or pre-booked. Please check the specific rules for the service.
