What you can expect

Begin your adventure with a comfortable transfer to a traditional horse farm at the foothills of the Ili Alatau Mountains. Upon arrival, meet your experienced instructors, receive a safety briefing, and prepare your riding equipment.

Get introduced to your horse and learn about its character and behaviour. Then, set off on a ride along scenic mountain trails that once served as routes for nomadic travellers. Pass through more than six diverse natural locations, including open meadows, rolling hills, forested paths, and a particularly magical area known locally as the “Forest Fairytale.”

Throughout the ride, hear insights from your instructor about nomadic traditions, lifestyle, and the historical importance of these mountain paths. The calm rhythm of horseback riding combined with panoramic mountain views creates a truly immersive experience.

During the tour, stop for rest and photography, allowing you to capture unforgettable moments against the dramatic mountain scenery and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

After returning to the farm, continue your adventure with a special bonus activity: traditional archery practice, giving you a hands-on introduction to another key element of nomadic culture. Enjoy a light nomadic-style snack, completing the cultural experience.

After the programme, have some free time to relax, share impressions, and enjoy the natural setting before the return transfer.
