Starting from Butakovka, you warm up through the forest pass toward the ridge called 'Nadezhda' (Hope). If that goes well, the real test begins: the final assault on Bukreev Peak at 3,100m. The ride up is relentless — no switchbacks, no recovery time, just steep. The view from the top covers glaciers, 3,000m peaks, the city grid below, and observatories in the distance. There's a bell at the summit. Ring it — you earned it. Level 8. All day.
Helmet, balaclava, body armor with arm protection, knee pads (worn over your pants), jersey, and gloves.
Water, windbreaker jacket (depending on weather), thick pants, and comfortable closed-toe shoes.
"10 hours, 5 peaks, one electric bike. This is the ultimate Almaty mountain challenge. The panoramas from each peak are different and stunning."
Мурат С."Absolutely brutal and absolutely beautiful. You need serious fitness and riding skills. But the reward — five different mountain panoramas in one day."
