Altyn-Arashan Free Hot-Spring

Finding the free-of-charge hot pool is not difficult. the best way is to ask the guys in the Yak Tours cabin (the second big building coming from the South, or the first coming from the North). if they don’t help, use these directions.
1. Stand by the strange looking sign outside the Yak Tours cabin, the one that says “London”, “New-Dely” and so.
2. Look to the North. you’ll see a jeep trail heading up straight befor you, and a nice grassy platform on it’s left (above the main river).
3. Walk along the small trails on the grasy platform, the running stream has a small bridge.
4. after you get to the 1st trees you’ll see a broad trail (squashed grass) going towards the next tree group. take it.
5. The wide trail goes up and a smaller trail turns to your left, takr it. the samll trail takes you over the trees, and has an evev smaller trail that goes right down to the river side. even with some mud steps.
6. The hot water pool is that pipe-like stone and concret structure you see.
7. Enjoy jumping from hot water to the freezing stream.
