• Almaty - Situated at the base of the Tien Shan mountains, Almaty is Kazakhstan’s largest city and a lively cultural center. Although no longer the capital, it remains the country’s vibrant core, celebrated for its tree-lined streets, art-filled cafés, and stunning mountain backdrop. Explore the lively Green Bazaar, take a cable car to Kok Tobe for sweeping views, or visit the colorful Zenkov Cathedral in Panfilov Park. A short drive away, enjoy skating at the famous Medeu rink or discover Shymbulak — a top mountain resort offering skiing, hiking, and alpine cafés throughout the year. Stay in one of the city’s luxurious five-star hotels, featuring spa and wellness centers, stylish interiors, and breathtaking views. Almaty’s mix of Central Asian tradition, Soviet charm, and modern style makes it an ideal gateway to Kazakhstan’s natural beauty.
• Butakovskiy Waterfall - Located just outside Almaty, the Butakovka Visitor Center provides easy access to forest trails, hidden waterfalls, and expansive mountain views. It’s perfect for gentle hikes, picnics, and short treks into Ile-Alatau National Park, especially vibrant with spring blooms and autumn colors. Nearby, the turquoise waters of Big Almaty Lake sparkle among towering peaks, a favorite spot for photographers and nature enthusiasts. In winter, experience world-class skiing at Shymbulak Resort or glide across the ice at Medeu, the world’s highest Olympic-sized rink. Here, nature, sport, and fresh mountain air are just minutes from the city.
• Altynemel Visitor Center - A vast sanctuary where steppe, desert, and mountains converge. Ancient petroglyphs carved thousands of years ago still echo the spirit of nomadic life. At the heart of the park lies Besshatyr — the ancient burial site of Saka chieftains. These 2,500-year-old mounds, surrounded by stone altars and cliff petroglyphs, narrate tales of steppe kings and ancient traditions. Wander where wild kulans and graceful gazelles roam freely. Reflect in solitude near sacred sites and the shimmering shores of Kapchagay Lake. Spend the night in a traditional yurt near the Altynemel Visitor Center, warmed by firelight under a vast starry sky.
• Charyn Visitor Center - Formed over millions of years, Charyn Canyon stretches 154 km — a stunning display of red rock formations that rise like ancient sculptures. Start the day with a herbal tea ceremony in the fresh canyon air; end it under the stars by a fire, as the soulful sounds of the dombra resonate through the cliffs. The Charyn Visitor Center offers eco-cabin accommodations, interpretive trails, and guided walks through the legendary Valley of Castles. Expert local guides lead geology tours, photography walks, and cultural evenings — enhancing your connection to this land’s ancient and living stories.
• Turgensai Visitor Center - On Almaty’s southern edge, the majestic Zailiysky Alatau — “Motley Mountains” in Kazakh — rises, offering alpine scenery, rich biodiversity, and deep cultural roots. The Turgensai Visitor Center serves as the main gateway to the park’s forests, rivers, and waterfalls. Visitors can enjoy guided hikes, birdwatching, photography walks, and seasonal workshops focused on nature and traditions.
