Seasons
Summer journeys
June to August: mountains, lakes and yurt camps while the deserts bake.
Summer is very hot in the Silk Road cities, but it is the best season for the mountains. From June to September, yurt camps open at Song-Kul, the Pamir Highway is passable and the Fann Mountains and Kolsai lakes are at their best.
A summer journey can still include the cities, with early starts and long lunches.
