Itinerary

*To start the hike, you will have to arrange your overnight at Tulpar-Kol lake and arrive to there a day before. Otherwise, we can arrange everything for you in advance.

Day 1: Walk to the Advanced Camp

Embark on a journey from Tulpar-Kol Lake. Hit the breathtaking Traveler’s Pass on your way, standing at an altitude of 4120 meters. After 6–7 hours of hiking, you will finally arrive at Advanced Camp, also known as Camp 1, situated at 4400m above sea level.

The camp is situated in a cold, snowy environment with permafrost peaks around. A sweeping panorama of the majestic Lenin Peak, towering above you like a snow titan, will give a truly incredible and epic view. It is indeed inspiring, yet humbling to stand so close to this iconic peak.

Day 2: Yukhin Peak — Tulpar-Kol (or stay for one more day)

After breakfast, begin your ascent to Peak Yukhin, standing at an impressive altitude of 5130 meters. This is one of the best acclimatization peaks, allowing climbers to reach the summit without the need for crampons or ropes. However, the climb demands significant physical effort and determination to reach the top.

Upon successfully conquering the summit, take a moment to enjoy the breathtaking views and capture unforgettable shots. Have a short rest at the peak, or explore the glacier up close, embracing a bit more of breathtaking views from beneath the peak, then descend back to Tulpar-Kol Lake.
