Shymbulak – Almaty’s Alpine Playground Above the Clouds

#postandearn 📍 Address: Shymbulak Ski Resort, Medeu Valley, Almaty Region, Kazakhstan Shymbulak is Central Asia’s top mountain resort, offering stunning views of the Tien Shan, modern lifts, and 25 km of ski runs. In winter, it’s perfect for skiing and snowboarding; in summer, it transforms into a hiking and adventure paradise. Whether you ride the gondola from Medeu or sip hot chocolate at 3200 m, Shymbulak promises unforgettable moments. ✨ Tips: • Arrive early to enjoy quiet slopes and breathtaking sunrise views. • Dress in warm layers and bring sunglasses — the sun at altitude is strong. • Use the Medeu gondola for an easy and scenic ride up. • Try the local mountain cuisine — from manti to venison dishes. • Visit on weekdays to avoid crowds. • In summer, explore hiking trails, bike routes, or go paragliding. #shymbulak #almaty #tienshan #skikazakhstan #kazakhstanmountains #mountainresort #snowadventure #hikingkazakhstan #cablecarride #travelkazakhstan#familytrip #localguides #旅行酷体验 #trip
