A Korean adventure operator, Tour & World, launched the 9-day “Ak-Suu Traverse” high‑altitude trek through Kyrgyzstan’s largely untouched Tien Shan (천산) mountains. Marketed as a private, experience‑focused journey, the route crosses glacier lakes, perennial snow ridges, alpine meadows and deep canyons—earning it comparisons to the Central Asian “Tour du Mont Blanc.” The program covers about 70–80 km on the Part‑1 route from Jyrgalan to Altyn Arashan at an average altitude near 3,000 m. Accommodations mix traditional nomadic yurts (유르트) and wild camping, with hands‑on nature activities like glacier water purification. After leaving Jyrgalan, participants spend roughly five days in areas without cell signal for a true digital detox and reflective time, ending with relaxation in Altyn Arashan’s natural sulfur hot springs. To celebrate listing on the “AtTrip” platform, all bookers receive 1 kg of Tien Shan natural honey. Flexible departures via Bishkek or Almaty airports are offered.
