Are you planning a trip to Kyrgyzstan? Don't miss the chance to visit the stunning Sary-Jaz Valley, just a short distance from Karakol town. The valley is surrounded by the magnificent Sary-Jaz mountain range, with Semenov peak standing tall at 5816 m. As you journey towards Karkara Valley, don't forget to look out for panoramic views of the Tengri mountains on clear days. In the summer months, the valley comes to life with shepherds and their cattle making their way from Tuz Pass to the lush summer pastures (jailoo) of Sary-Jaz. You can spot traditional nomad's yurts dotting the landscape. For those seeking relaxation, the valley boasts hot springs and caves in the mountains, adding to the natural beauty of the region.
