About Kaniet

Hi! My name is Kaniet and I've been working as a horse trekking and hiking guide in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan since 2018. I specialize in multi-day tours through remote valleys, high-altitude lakes, and traditional nomadic routes. I know almost all the popular destinations in Kyrgyzstan and can organize unforgettable adventures for any level of experience. I speak English and Kyrgyz, and I enjoy sharing local culture, history and nature with travelers from all over the world. Whether you're looking for a peaceful ride through alpine meadows or a challenging hike to alpine lakes like Ala-Kol, Son-Kol, Kel-Suu, I can make it happen. I always focus on safety, comfort and genuine experiences. Let's explore the wild beauty of Kyrgyzstan together!

9 Days Of Horseriding To Son-kul Lake

Starts in Bishkek, Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan

The jailoos are the pastures where Kyrgyz shepherds tend their flocks in the summer, and Song-Kol is the jewel of the jailoos, a stunning 270 km of sparkling water at 3016 m, surrounded by 3700 m mountains on all sides. For the fullest jailoo experience, approach the lake via the mountains enclosing the western end of Kochkor Valley, moving from jailoo to jailoo and staying with shepherd families in remote meadows far off the beaten path. Enjoy homemade jam, fresh cream, bread still warm from the oven, and the best kymyz (fermented mare’s milk) around. The route traverses remote Jumgal rayon, and reaches Song-Kol via Jalgyz-Karagai (Lone Fir) Pass on the north shore.

This was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. The landscapes that unfolded during this excursion were like something out of a movie. And my guide was absolutely wonderful. He spoke fluent English, and the atmosphere was fantastic, which made the trip even more enjoyable. I 100% recommend it; I loved it all the way from Sweden!

I couldn't have found a better guide for my adventure in Kyrgyzstan than Kaniet. He created a detailed, personalized plan for my Kyrgyz epic. The laughter and good humor were fantastic. I'll definitely be back with him. Perfect for any audience, both children and adults.
