Climb Higher, Connect Deeper – Mountain Adventures at Shymbulak Medeu Camp

WHAT IT IS?

Shymbulak Medeu Camp – glamping located 1691 meters above sea level near a peaceful river in the mountains of Almaty, Kazakhstan. This property specializes on unique glamping experience for Gen Z. The combination of stunning mountain view and modern lifestyle will be an unforgettable experience.

  • Luxurious rooms with private bathrooms and all the amenities required for a comfortable stay.
  • Playgrounds for active games to recharge energy and bring joy.
  • Sports grounds (mini-football, street basketball).
  • Evenings by the campfire under the stars, surrounded by pleasant company, are moments that will remain in memory.
  • Stargazing.
  • For those who prefer active recreation, this hotel suggests a rope park, gorilla zipline and mountain hikes of varying difficulty, so that every day is full of new discoveries.

WHY IT´S COOL?

  • Adventure & Active Recreation – according to Strategic Advisor in Global Hospitality, Ops, AI & Talent – Hans Peter B. Younger affluent travelers (Gen Z/younger Millennials) value authenticity, nature, wellness, and low-friction digital touchpoints. This property is not just a place to overnight, but to meet new people and try new activities like mountain hiking in summer and skiing & skating in winter.
  • Social and relaxing activities – campfires. It’s incredible to sit around a campfire in the mountains, telling stories and singing songs with a guitar under the bright stars. These are meaningful interactions.
  • Sustainability – all tents are build from eco-friendly materials. Also property avoids using plastic in rooms, providing guests with water bottles made from glas. Also this property organizes environmental education events, eco-festivals, and supporting the “Green Ranger Club” project focused on nature conservation.

WHY IT HAS FUTURE GROWTH POTENTIAL?

From business perspectives temporary structures (tents) compared to traditional hotel construction have significantly lower development costs. This factor could also affect the room rates, making them afordable for guests.

Formula “location+ comfort+ interesting social activity” has huge potential for growth among Gen Z which strives to communicate & be active in social media.

  1. How cool is this "Seed"?

    Does it have future growth potential?

    Hi Dinara, the mix between comfort and raw mountain adventure is fascinating. It raises a broader question about how modern travelers define “authenticity.” Can an experience still feel genuine when it includes luxury touches like private bathrooms and digital access? I think Shymbulak Medeu Camp manages to strike that delicate balance—inviting guests to unplug while still respecting the comfort level today’s explorers expect.

  6. You should have Green Rangers bold as well. Great place, but it feels a bit authentic brochure. All the characteristics you mention can be found as appraisals to many other top locations as well. Poignant details: not so much (this time). Apart from these Green Rangers. Thanks.Carl

    The concept of glamping has really risen in popularity over the years and I feel it is a great way to connect with nature while also being comfortable. While camping sometimes can be a real burden, I really like how this place offers so many activities and feels very well planned. Glamping also has a lot of future potential because of its outdoor focus, and can be done in many environments.
