Hello,

I'm going to Kyrgyzstan this summer, hoping to go trekking ; however, I have a problem with hiking stoves : is it possible to find one in Bishkek ?? I want to spend some days there before going into the mountains, but I'm not sure if I can buy one there. If yes, where ? which model (soviet ?) ? price ? weight (argh....) ?

Another option would be to buy a Primus Multifuel (or msr similar), but it is quite expensive...

Any advice is welcome !!!!

Multi fuel stoves - such as MSR - and Primus - are very adaptable and reliable - but you day have to pay for it.
