Kyrgyzstan is located in Central Asia and dominated by towering mountains. It was historically part of the silk road and is today home to a vibrant nomadic culture. It is also a winter sports haven due to its rugged and remote powder-filled slopes. The country boasts 23 ski bases, of which 10 are near Bishkek.
