Hike to Lake Kol-Ukok

In Kyrgyzstan there’s a lot of lakes and trail to choose, we passed bu Kochkor after our trip to Lake song-kul, and saw this small little lake on the maps, and decided to pay a visit here. It’s a 22km hike with elevation of 1200m to hike from kochkor to lake kol ukok, we hired a taxi to send us 7km in to the start of the trail, there’s a yurt camp to stay if u want to make it a 2 days trip. We choose to do it in one day, so it’s about 12 hours of hiking time for this round trip. But we get to find at least 4 cute marmots along the route, it’s fun to carefully look into every rocks we passed by to find the cute little fella inside.
