Overview
Left Talgar is the route local enduro riders talk about with respect. You climb from Butakovka over the Talgar Pass at 3,163m and drop into a gorge that's hidden from the city side of the mountains. Once you're over the pass, there's no quick escape route. You'll see bear tracks, evidence of mudflows and avalanches, and ford milky glacial rivers with Peak Talgar (4,973m) towering above. The gorge follows the Left Talgar river and exits at Shymbulak ski resort. Campfire lunch along the way.

Rider Reviews
"Left Talgar is wild and untouched. The tract feels like Siberian taiga. Full-day commitment but you'll see landscapes no tourist ever sees."
Тарас В."Very remote. Trail conditions change depending on recent rain. We hit mud in the lower sections, ankle deep in places. The forest riding higher up was the best part, dense old trees and soft dirt. Bring spare socks."
