Welcome to “Nomad Lodge Tamga” yurt camp!
Camp operating period: from middle of April to middle of October
The camp is located on the southern shore of Issyk-Kul Lake, in a quiet place 330 km from Bishkek, 90 km from Karakol and 10 km from the village of Tamga.
The southern shore of Issyk-Kul is notable for many places with wild untouched nature along the shore and absence of huge buildings or hotels. People in the villages preserve local customs and traditions – they handweave the national handmade carpets and decorations for yurts, produce wooden parts for yurts, train eagles and falcons for hunting and organize various local festivals in summer.
Such a wonderful combination of pristine nature, quiet beaches and the oriental touch attracts guests to the southern shore of Issyk-Kul Lake. Along with the rest on the beach, you can have day hiking and horseback riding in the colorful canyons of the “Fairytale” gorge to Barskoon waterfalls, experience kayaking along the shore and get acquainted with the life of local nomads in mountain pastures near the yurt camp.
The convenient location of the camp allows guests traveling along the Great Silk Road from Uzbekistan through Kyrgyzstan to Kazakhstan to have a rest here. Comfort and hospitality in the camp will be highly appreciated by all guests who will ever visit the camp. If you like to get away from the city hustle, listen to the birds singing in the morning and meditate, then this is exactly the place in Issyk-Kul, which you would prefer to stay and not leave.
