Kyrgyzstan weather overview
You'll find bright sunshine in Kyrgyzstan for more than two-thirds of the year. Although it is a mountainous region with all year snows in its upper reaches, the country lies a long way from the sea and, as a result, rainfall is low. Even in the valleys, winters are intensely cold but relatively short. Summers are hot and dry with lower temperatures in the mountains.
What to pack for Kyrgyzstan weather
In the summer, you will need warm clothes for the evenings and, in winter, go prepared for high mountain conditions.
