Extreme Kolsai Hiking

We invite you on an extreme hike in the winter mountains to experience the state "on the verge" ... and increase the level of adrenaline in the blood, get positive and throw out negative emotions, realize your own greatness or powerlessness.

This trip - diving into the world of wild nature - will give you unforgettable impressions and many new stories that you will share with family and friends.

Our extreme trekking will start from the territory of Kolsai lakes.

Kolsai Lakes is one of the most beautiful places of the Kazakh nature, “the pearl of the Northern Tien Shan”, located in the Almaty region in 300 km. from Almaty.

This is a chain of three lakes, located respectively at altitudes of 1800, 2250 and 2700 meters above sea level, characterized by a unique variety of rare plants and animals.

In the lakes there is no current, they are fed by groundwater, because they look so majestic and serene.

When you look at the water in the Kolsai lakes, these are magically changing images: the age-old Tien-Shan firs were just reflected in the water - and now the water is already emerald green - like a coniferous forest colored the lake in its colors! But the next moment a high blue sky peeked into the lake - and the water immediately became bright blue!

Further along the route you will climb the Bes Karagay Pass and discover a new amazing world of nature. Beautiful landscapes of nature will fill your soul with delight, this beauty is truly mesmerizing. Turning around, it's hard not to notice - how beautiful the nature and the world around us are, after all.

You will overcome many obstacles, but they will only make you stronger. You will be accompanied by an experienced guide. Since we will climb as high as possible, it is highly likely that we will meet a snow leopard or a mountain goat.

Do you dream to become a conqueror of mountain peaks, do you want to feel the beauty of life, climbing higher above its surface? Nothing is impossible! But remember: this kind of extreme will require you to have maximum courage, dexterity and strength.
