Travel
Until recently, travel by foreigners was not recommended because of security problems. To travel between Osh and Batken the road crosses the So'x enclave, which requires a double-entry Kyrgyz visa and an Uzbek transit visa: it is possible to take an unmetalled road around the enclave. The southern mountains offer excellent, but very difficult climbing with many sheer rock faces. Summits are Pyramid Peak and Pik Skalistiy .

And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could”

To the built voice, or fly with winter to the bells,
But do not travel down dumb wind like prodigals.”
