Red Hill is the easiest and most popular trek from Zhabagly village, a day trip on foot or horseback that climbs to around 2,000 metres. The main reason to go is the Greig tulip bloom in late April — entire hillsides turn red, with smaller patches of yellow Kaufmann tulips and white Regel tulips mixed in.
Outside the bloom the route is still worthwhile for the stalactite cave near the summit, which contains a small underground lake, and for the panorama of the snow-covered Tien Shan ridge to the south. The cave entrance is narrow and slippery — bring a torch and rubber-soled boots.
