Highlights
Why you'll love this trip
- Stand in Charyn Canyon, where 12-million-year-old red rock towers look like they wandered off from Arizona.
- Ride the cable car up Kok-Tobe for the full Almaty grid spread below, framed by the Tien Shan range.
- Lake Issyk sits at 1,756 meters, turquoise and alpine-cold, ringed by peaks that still hold snow in July.
- Shymbulak Ski Resort doubles as a summer escape. Even in off-season, the gondola ride up is worth the ticket.
- Almaty earned its Apple City nickname honestly. The orchards here predate the Silk Road, and you'll taste why.
