No matter what time of year you visit Kazakhstan, you will be able to enjoy its natural beauty. From the snow-capped peaks of the Tien Shan mountains in the east to the endless steppes and deserts in the west, this Central Asian country is home to some amazing landscapes.

One of the best ways to experience Kazakhstan's natural beauty is by hiking or camping in one of its many national parks. Altyn Emel National Park, located in the south eastern part of the country, is a great place to start. With over 5,000 square kilometres of rolling hills, canyons, rivers and lakes, there are plenty of opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts to explore.

Another beautiful national park is Ile-Alatau, which is located near the city of Almaty. This park is known for its snow-capped peaks, rushing rivers and lush green valleys. It's no wonder that it's a popular destination for hikers, mountain climbers and skiers.

If you're looking for a place to see the stars, look no further than Zhetisu National Park in the southwest of Kazakhstan. This dark sky park is one of only a handful on Earth that have been officially recognized by the International Dark Sky Association. Here you can enjoy pristine views of the night sky without any light pollution.

So if you're looking for an adventure in an awe-inspiring natural setting, Kazakhstan should be high on your list!
