Traveller notes on Cholpon-Ata in September
Notes from nearby Almaty (68 km away)
Cholpon-Ata doesn't have its own notes for September yet — these are about Almaty, close enough to share the season.
September is the month locals on the forum call the most beautiful of the year in Almaty — warm, plenty of sun, neither hot nor cold, and late September still warm enough for a t-shirt through the day. The number worth noticing is the spread rather than the average: days run about 22°C but nights fall to around 9, so the light jacket regulars recommend is for the evening, not the afternoon. The broader window they give is April to October, with May and June their other favourites; from October the weather turns changeable in a New England sort of way.
