EXPERIENCES

A range of thrilling experiences handpicked by our experts. Don’t see one that’s just right for you? No problem. Our local insiders will create precisely what you want.

Skiing


Nestled in the heart of the Alatau Mountains, Shymbulak Ski Resort is a haven for winter sports enthusiasts. Whizz down the pristine slopes, with the rugged peaks serving as a breathtaking backdrop. If visiting outside the ski season, the resort transforms into a hiker's paradise, with trails unveiling the mountains' myriad secrets and panoramic vistas.

Trekking


Discover the ethereal beauty of Big Almaty Lake, a glacial wonder set amidst towering peaks. Its turquoise waters change hues with the seasons, making it a sight to behold. Embark on a trek, navigating through pine forests and alpine meadows, and let the serene ambiance of the lake envelop you. The journey is as enchanting as the destination itself.

Kazakh Nomad Life


Immerse yourself in the age-old traditions of the Kazakh nomads. Stay in a traditional "yurt," a portable tent used by the nomadic tribes, nestled amidst the mountainous landscapes. Engage with local families, partake in their daily activities, from herding animals to crafting traditional items, and savour authentic Kazakh dishes. It's a journey into the heart and soul of the Alatau region's inhabitants.

Medeu Ice Rink


Visit Medeu, the world's highest ice-skating rink set amidst the Alatau Mountains. Whether you're an expert skater or a beginner, gliding on this rink, with the mountain winds in your hair and peaks in the horizon, is exhilarating. When not frozen, Medeu becomes a hub for concerts and cultural events, making it a must-visit spot year-round.

Mountain Biking


For adrenaline seekers, the Alatau Mountains offer thrilling mountain biking trails. Navigate through rocky paths, dense forests, and along fast-flowing mountain streams. The varying altitudes and terrains challenge and reward in equal measure. As you pedal, soak in the unspoiled beauty of the region, feeling the rush of both adventure and nature's wonders.

Stargazing


Situated on the vast Assy Plateau, the Assy-Turgen Observatory offers a celestial treat. With minimal light pollution, the night sky unveils its mysteries — a dance of stars, planets, and distant galaxies. Engage with local astronomers, unravelling the secrets of the cosmos, and perhaps catch a meteor shower or the ethereal glow of the Milky Way.
