Kyrgyzstan Motorcycle Tour from Bishkek

The Kyrgyzstan motorcycle tour begins in Bishkek, the greenest city in Central Asia, where our team collects you from the airport and brings you to the hotel. After a short city tour around Ala-Too Square and Oak Park, your Bishkek motorcycle tour heads into the mountains the next morning. The route of this Kyrgyzstan motorcycle tour crosses the Too-Aschuu Pass and Suusamyr Valley, past red clay slopes, deep into the Kyrgyzstan Nomad Ride with overnight stays in a yurt camp on Song Kul Lake. Motorcycles, guide and support vehicle are ready on location.

Highlights

Song Kul Lake Highland

This Song Kul Lake motorcycle tour takes you to 3,000 metres altitude at one of Kyrgyzstan's finest mountain lakes, past yak herds and pastures, where you spend the night with nomads in a traditional yurt camp.

Yurt Camp Experience

At this yurt camp motorcycle tour stop, you experience nomadic hospitality first-hand: a shared dinner, stories by the fire and a night in a traditional felt yurt on the shores of Song Kul Lake.

Too-Aschuu Pass Stage

The Too-Aschuu Pass motorcycle tour stage takes you to 3,500 metres over one of the country's most distinctive mountain passes, before the route descends into the green Suusamyr Valley between red clay slopes.

Nomadic Culture Up Close

On this Nomad Ride motorcycle tour you meet herding families, witness traditional pastoral life and learn how nomadic existence between summer pasture and winter camp has changed little across generations.

Honda CRF250L Rental Bike

For this Honda CRF250L Kyrgyzstan motorcycle tour, a robust enduro is provided, maintained by the support vehicle with mechanical assistance, so you can focus entirely on the track and the landscape.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Mountain passes reach up to 3,500 metres and alternate between tarmac and dirt track. Basic offroad experience is helpful; a guide accompanies you throughout the entire route.

The rental motorcycle is the robust Honda CRF250L, technically supported by the accompanying vehicle with mechanical assistance – ideal for the varying terrain between steppe, pass and dirt track.

The wide Suusamyr Valley is a pastoral haven for nomads, with yurts, grazing herds and mountain panorama – a highlight right at the beginning of the route after the Too-Aschuu Pass.

Riding practice on loose ground is an advantage, as roughly half the route is unsurfaced. The pace is adjusted to the group, and the support vehicle assists when needed.
