Kyrgyzstan Horse Riding Day 4

Kyrgyzstan Horse Riding Day 4, we stayed in Ular Guesthouse and rode in Chong-Kemin.

Chong Kemin is famous for the pine trees and river. We rode along and watched the view, but we did not go in between the trees.

Mounting on our horses after breakfast.

The trail guide was thoughtful enough to give us an introductory briefing on how to handle the horses.

The beautiful painted is Apache. A nice walking trail horse, but a little reluctant to canter.

It was around 10:00 AM in the morning, but the sun felt like we were riding at 12pm.

The sun is something I couldn’t get used to even after 4 days of riding.

The weather is a little extreme today.

I’m not used to such strong sunlight. Sufficient protection is definitely necessary.

The pine trees view from far.

Our guide brought us to the top of the hill and make a turn. We went up using the smaller hilly trail, while coming back we used the wider road.

A video to recap our ride with a lot of beautiful views captured.

Took us approximately 2.5 hour to cover slightly over 10km, which is enough of riding for the day.

Kyrgyzstan Horse Riding Day 4 is a bit of a short ride but it’s fine.

The weather is a little too extreme to ride for long.

That wraps up our riding tour.

We spent a few more days in Bishkek and Almaty before coming back to Kuala Lumpur. Those are more touristic traveling in the towns so I will leave those stories for another day.
