Bike Tours in Kyrgyzstan: Lake Issyk Kul for E-Bikers

Accommodation – the tour goes around Lake Issyk Kul starting on the north shore. Accommodation will be in small hotels, guesthouses, a yurt camp and with local families. A car, in which all baggage will be transported, will accompany the whole tour. In an emergency it will be possible to ride along in the car. An interpreter (English or German speaking) will also accompany the tour to assist in communication with the local people. She will provide information about the country, its customs and habits. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Bicycle – you should bring your own bicycle. We suggest that you bring an extra battery as the roads are not always flat and you will probably use more energy than on a flat, well paved road. Also you should bring a cycling helmet and orange or yellow safety jacket. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Because of the heavy traffic in July and August at the north side of the lake, we will make a small adaption to the itinerary. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Temperatures in the mountains can be quite low at the start and end of season so some warm clothes may be required. A raincoat/cape and hiking shoes/boots are strongly recommended. We also recommend to everybody that they bring their own hard-hat and fluorescent vest as they are not available here. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ For bookings of 4, or more, persons we offer a 5% discount. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Due to unforeseen circumstances, it might be necessary to make small changes in the programme. We ask for your understanding.
