One day Trek in Osh to Sacred Sites and Panoramic Views

The one-day trekking tour to Sacred Mountain in Kyrgyz Ata National Nature Park was truly amazing. The hike was both scenic and peaceful, surrounded by stunning panoramic views. My guide shared fascinating local stories about the mountain, adding depth to the journey. We reached the maschit, where pilgrims pray and perform ritual exercises, which gave a unique cultural perspective. I chose not to continue to the summit due to some difficulty with the altitude, but resting in the praying house for an hour was rewarding. We also met three park employees there and captured some wonderful memory photos.

My one-day trip to the Sacred Mountain was an unforgettable experience. The climb to the pilgrims’ praying house was quite challenging, but after taking a short rest in the pilgrims’ rest house, we regained strength and continued upward. On the way to the summit, four horses suddenly appeared on our path, and I was honestly scared to pass. Thankfully, Marat, our guide, calmly helped us through. Reaching the summit felt like a victory—the panoramic view of Osh and the surrounding mountains was absolutely breathtaking. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Osh who loves nature and adventure.

Had great tour guide Marat. He was fantastic.He knows and loves sacred sites and made us feel very welcome and comfortable and he did some great jokes. We felt very welcome there.Sacred sites were spectacular and unforgettable views.Highly recommended Marat and would love to see him again in Osh when I return.

If you are in Osh, do not miss this opportunity it’s a day trip to the breathtaking mountains of Alta . Our local guide Marat speaks fluent English and 4 other languages . He was born here and most of his relatives live at villages near the base of the mountains. He is very friendly, polite, and once you meet him, you feel like you know him and you can ask him anything about the history of Osh and the mountains. He is flexible with schedule once you arrive. He gave us a unique close up experience of the nomad culture . Aside from that, the view from the mountains are amazing with horses, cattle, sheep, and Yak grazing beside you as you hike. A river runs beside you as you hike and we took advantage of it by taking a dip in cold refreshing water. Marat made our journey much more enjoyable with his knowledge and used our pace to stop and rest. We liked it so much that we decided to stay one night at a yurt there that happened to be available. I highly recommend this trip and I will give it 6 stars out of 5 if I could.

I do recommend this trail to those want to fill their eyes with the awesome mountain panoramas of southern Kyrgyzstan. We ended the trail reaching the top of the peak, guided by Murat our five stars guide. I highly suggest this experience that ends with tasty local food in good company.

I did this tour as a day trip out of Osh and really enjoyed seeing some amazing views while climbing the mountain as well as the conversation and local knowledge Marat was able to provide. Thanks again Marat for taking me up the mountain and for the hospitality that you provided. I'd recommend this tour to others.
