Baitor Guesthouse Yurts

About Baitor Guesthouse Yurts

Baitor is a small family guesthouse in Jyrgalan village run by Bermet and Azamat Japarov, and it offers a yurt alongside its rooms at 900 som a night including breakfast. The draw beyond the price is the horses: the family rent them out and arrange riding trips into the surrounding valleys, which in Jyrgalan means access to the Boz-Uchuk lakes, the Terim-Tor gorge and the Keskenkija route without needing to organise animals separately. Other meals are 400 som each and vegetarian options are available on request, which is worth knowing in a region where the default is mutton. Being in the village rather than up a gorge, it is reachable by road and open outside the walking season, though the exact season window isn't stated. A few things aren't confirmed either: the number of yurts, bed configuration, heating arrangement, toilet and shower facilities, wi-fi and languages spoken. Assume the yurt is heated by a stove and that facilities are shared with the house. If you want a jailoo camp on open pasture, this is not it — but as a cheap, well-connected base with horses on hand, it does a specific job well. Contact the family directly to confirm the rate and availability.
