TrailTrack routes

Reach Ilmagan Lake through the upper road and woodland sections, pause on the permitted shore and see a quiet mountain lake among the surrounding terrain. The final walk suits a prearranged journey from Anavgai.

See Galyamaki’s winter side and follow mountain approaches into the Malaya Romanovka valley, then the woodland road towards Esso. It is an appealing direction for a prepared organised group once access and winter conditions are confirmed.

Visit Ala-Archa’s woodland memorial and discover lower Adygene, where the outing changes character between trees, meadow and river crossings.

For the Kyzyl-Kasa crossing from the Kyrgyz-Ata system towards Ak-Töbe. The saddle reveals the divide between neighbouring northern Kichik-Alay valleys.

Cross Donguz from Kara-Keche towards Ming-Kush and explore the valley direction towards Sary-Bulun as a separate addition. The named mountain saddle is the journey’s central reference, followed by a continuation that needs careful logistics.

Walk Keskenkiya’s named passes and return to Jyrgalan after exploring several valleys. The village base helps organise overnight stops and discuss conditions with a local guide.

The appeal is Kurgaktor itself and the transition from rocky pass country to Altyn-Arashan’s thermal valley. Choose that combination as a prepared mountain journey after identifying the continuation beyond the springs.

See Manshuk Mametova Lake beside the actual high departure and follow the descent through Alpingrad into a specific mountain valley. This variant suits a prepared group with confirmed access to the lake.

Link eight identifiable passes in western Trans-Ili Alatau and watch the arrangement of valleys change with each ridge crossing. Milky Quartz and Fluorite provide a distinctive pair of mineral names before the far turn through Meduza.

Compare Old Amuzgi and Salta Waterfall with Hoi and Phakoch, then choose a separate mountain stage towards Arkhonsky or Balk-Bashi. The difference between Dagestan’s historic visits and the high passes gives this wider plan its appeal.

Walk from Vladikavkaz towards mountain Ingushetia, visit the Tsurov tower and finish at Tsey-Loam Pass. The extended approach reveals the gradual change from the urban valley to exposed mountain slopes.
