    Staying at Mirbek’s camp at Son-Kul lake was one of those rare, one of a kind experiences. The location at over 3000m is remote and can only be reached by gravel road. It is as authentic as any stay you are likely to have of nomadic life. Aijamal,...

    Great location and tasty food, both at dinner and breakfast. Everything was clean and the heating in the yurt at night is a plus. We easily arranged transportation from Kochkor and a horse ride through them.

    Traditional yurt camp, one of the nicer ones we stayed in (shower and toilet). Friendly family that hosts and they come to heat up the yurts in the evening as it gets cold.

Company information

About Us My name is Mirbek. I’m a professional English-speaking guide and driver, organizing private tours around Kyrgyzstan. Our yurt camp is a family-run business where we warmly welcome guests and offer an authentic experience of nomadic life, nature, and culture. My mother is the heart of our camp. She hosts our guests with great care and speaks German and a little English. With us, you’ll feel like part of the family — enjoying homemade traditional meals, learning about local customs, and hearing our family stories. We take a personal approach to every guest. For us, it’s not just about accommodation — it’s about sharing the real Kyrgyzstan, just as we live it. Welcome to our home and our yurt camp!

Property information

In our yurt camp, we strive to maintain a balance between the authenticity of nomadic culture and modern comfort, offering guests the opportunity to enjoy the natural beauty, traditional cuisine, and the true spirit of nomadic life.

Neighbourhood information

Our yurt camp is conveniently located on the northern shore of Lake Son-Kul, just 16 km from the Kalmak-Ashuu Pass. This is one of the most accessible areas, especially when coming from Kochkor or Naryn, making our camp a perfect stop along the route. On the map, you can clearly see a narrow strip of land jutting out into the lake, often referred to as the “bridge-island” due to its shape. Our camp is situated right near this unique and scenic part of the shoreline.
