Ski Touring In Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan has a range of big and completely virgin mountains: the Tien Shan mountains in the Almaty region and the Altai mountains in the East Kazakhstan region. Different areas for ski touring (forests, alpine zone, glaciers), various accommodation options (in city hotels or in huts and ethnic Kazakh yurts in the mountains), and a small number of other riders on the slopes will make your Kazakhstan ski-touring trip unique and unforgettable.

The ski touring season in Kazakhstan lasts 8 months. And includes 2 large periods: ski touring in the forest zone from late November to March; and backcountry on glaciers and four-thousandths peaks from April to June. At Skitouring.kz you will find information about locations and spots for ski touring and splitboarding, professional mountain and ski guides working in the region.
