Discover the natural beauty of the Almaty mountains on a relaxing day trip to Big Almaty Lake, one of the region’s most iconic alpine sights.
Enjoy scenic mountain roads, fresh air, and free time to admire and photograph the lake’s stunning turquoise waters surrounded by snow-capped peaks.

To personalise your experience, you can choose between two options:
1) Horseback riding (optional) in the mountain foothills, passing through peaceful trails and apple orchards — a unique way to connect with the local landscape (no riding experience required)
2) Extended sightseeing option including visits to the picturesque Alma-Arasan and Ayusai gorges, along with a visit to a Falconry Centre featuring an impressive birds of prey show (available from April to October).
