WELCOME TO OUR CAMP

I organise intensive horseback archery camps in the high Kyrgyz mountains, combining traditional horseback archery, breathtaking landscapes, and authentic nomadic life.

Train in the traditional martial art of horseback archery, surrounded by spectacular mountain landscapes.

Stay in a private yurt next to local nomads, ride through wild valleys to alpine lakes and waterfalls, join the herders in their daily work, and end the day with a traditional mountain sauna.

Your experience will also be captured in a professional group video, like the one shown below.

Contact me for prices and detailed informations!

• Riders and adventurers who prefer wild nature and simple living over hotel comfort
