Don't dream it. Trek it.
Only 15 places remaining,
Almost all the seats have been filled. £350 to register. £5,500 to raise. A reset you’ll feel for the rest of your life.
Yes, I'm trekking!The mountains don’t care about excuses. They don’t care what you do for work, what you owe, what you’ve been putting off. They only care if you walk.
Over eight days you’ll hike high mountain passes, ride across wide valleys, and find a kind of quiet you forgot existed. You’ll sharpen your mind. You’ll strengthen your soul. You’ll push further than you thought you could.
This isn’t a holiday. It’s raw grit, stunning scenery, and a brotherhood forged on the trail. You’ll come back refreshed, renewed, reconnected with your faith. Families in Sudan will receive the lifeline they desperately need — because you chose to act.
You’ll be met at the airport and transferred to your hotel. Rest, then meet your guides in the hotel lobby late afternoon — around 5pm — for the briefing.
Drive from Osh to Gulcha along the Pamir Highway. The ride begins on a dirt road, following the Kara Bulak stream toward Tepshi Camp, past shepherds’ yurts pitched among the junipers. Near the top of the climb, you’ll leave the road for a trail ascending the ridge to the left. At the end of the ridge, descend into Tepshi Camp at 2,710m — your host for the night is waiting.
From your yurt, a small trail leads up to Airy Bell Pass at 2,950m. A steep, hour-long ride brings you to the summit and an impressive panorama of the Kum Bell Mountains to the west.
The day starts with a demonstration of milking and making dairy products from horse and cow milk — a glimpse into the local way of life. An easy morning, then descend from Sary Oi summer camp to the river and turn upstream, skirting a precipitous gorge.
Cross the headwaters of the river and ride south toward the entrance of the pass. A short but steep 500m climb brings you to the summit of Ak Tor Pass at 3,500m. On the way up, the sharp rock walls of the Asan Korgon Range are the view that earns the effort.
After breakfast, you’ll meet your horseman and get a short instruction session to get familiar with your horse. Once ready, begin the ride along the river, soaking in the mountain scenery.
Ride toward the snow-capped Tulpar-Kol Lake, with views of Lenin Peak — the highlight of the tour. Lunch by the lake. Time to explore and take photos before heading back to Osh.
A day to slow down. To process what you’ve seen and what you’ve done. To sit with it.

Imagine leaving everything behind. Your home. Your community. The life you knew. That is the reality for nearly 11 million people displaced across Sudan — uprooted, uncertain, surviving on what little they can reach. Over 25 million people, almost half the population, face a devastating food crisis.
These aren’t statistics. They’re fathers, sons and brothers — and the mothers, daughters and sisters who depend on them.
Human Appeal is on the ground in Sudan, delivering food parcels to hungry families, providing hygiene kits, and sponsoring orphans who have lost everything. The need is vast. The work isn’t done.
Trek for them. Reflect for yourself. Return changed.
Donate nowNo prior experience is required, but this is a demanding nine-day trek across mountainous terrain — a good level of fitness and some training are essential. Full guidance is provided after registration.
Yes — the Kyrgyzstan Challenge Retreat is a brothers-only trip.
The £350 registration fee is non-refundable. All funds raised go directly to the Human Appeal Sudan Emergency Appeal.
Registration secures your place on the organised nine-day retreat. Full details of inclusions and any separate costs such as flights are shared at the pre-departure webinar and at registration.
100% of funds raised go to Human Appeal’s Sudan Emergency Appeal — food parcels, hygiene kits and orphan support for displaced families.
£5,500 helps deliver food, hygiene kits and ongoing support to families and orphans across Sudan. It can provide hygiene kits to help people in Sudan remain clean and dignified, ensure displaced families have meals to eat, and provide food parcels that will last a family for a month.
The mountains don’t care about excuses. Doers only. Will you walk?
