General presentation
Bayinbuluk
Immense basin of altitude, meandering and wetlands welcome herds and birds in the heart of Tian Shan.
To understand what Bayinbuluk is, look at Prairie de Bayinbuluk, Meander de la Kaidu and Swan Reserve. These places give us a view of a territory marked by mountain reliefs, wetlands, riverscapes and the countryside and allow us to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Nature and scenery
Prairie de Bayinbuluk
This meadow is one of the largest pastures of the Tian Shan. Altitude, cold night and long distances require a more serious organization than a simple excursion. A slow visit allows to go beyond the only points of view best known.
Place indismissible
Kaidu Meanders
The Kaidu River draws multiple curves in the wet plain of Bayinbuluk. The lookout is famous at sunset, but clouds and crowds can mask the show. A slow tour allows you to go beyond the only points of view that are best known.
Place indismissible
Swan reserve
The marshes of Bayinbuluk protect an important breeding area for several waterbirds. Observation remains remote and regulated to preserve habitats. Weather, altitude and runway condition must be verified prior to departure.
