Kyrgyzstan August 2014 – Teaser

Posted by Kirsten Koza on November 6, 2013 in kyrgyzstan, Uncategorized | 239 Views

Kirsten Koza’s bike makes a river crossing with a nomad in Kyrgyzstan.

August 14-25, 2014, in three 4x4s our small group will cross Kyrgyzstan’s Tian Shan mountains, on a cultural and photography adventure, to capture the nomads’ horse games and eagle hunting competitions.

Kyrgyzstan borders, China, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Tajikistan. It was formerly part of the USSR.

I biked for almost a month (when my bike wasn’t hitching rides on horses) across Kyrgyzstan researching this trip. I have found the best guides, and Kyrgyz tour operator to support our expedition (not on bikes) through nomads’ land and along the Silk Road.

(Prices and full details will be available now!)
