To visit the picturesque Chumysh Gorge in Kant, travelers will primarily transit through the capital city of Kyrgyzstan, Bishkek. Below are the primary means of transportation to consider:
The nearest major airport is Manas International Airport (FRU) located in Bishkek. Upon arriving at the airport, you can hire a taxi or rent a car to reach Kant, which is approximately 20 km east of Bishkek. The journey should take around 30-40 minutes.
From Bishkek: If you're already in Bishkek, you can hire a taxi or rent a car to drive to Kant. Alternatively, minibuses and shared taxis are available from the East Bus Station (Vostochny Avtovokzal) in Bishkek. These minibuses will drop you in the town of Kant, from where you can continue your journey to the Chumysh Gorge.
From Kant: From Kant town center, you can take a local taxi directly to Chumysh Gorge. The distance is approximately 25 km and the drive usually takes about 45 minutes, depending on road conditions.
Public buses and minibuses run regularly from Bishkek to Kant. However, reaching the gorge from Kant via public transport may be challenging as services are less frequent and may not go all the way to the gorge. It is usually more efficient to arrange a private or shared taxi.
