The spirit of travel
This circuit invites you to the heart of the mountains of Kyrgyzstan, in the footsteps of mountaineers who dream of altitude and immersion in nature. Between glaciers, panoramic ridges and high-altitude camps, you progress step by step, guided and supervised, to experience a genuine high-altitude adventure. Acclimatization days, technical training and the ascent of Razdelnaya summit create a thread connecting self-challenge, safety and progressive discovery.
The experience is as much human as it is sporting: sharing life in camp, encounters with the local team, simple and friendly atmosphere facing the landscapes of the Pamir. Upon return, visiting cities such as Osh and Bishkek adds a cultural touch to this journey between trekking, mountaineering and local immersion.
An ideal experience for those who wish to discover mountaineering in a wild and supervised setting.
