Description
The Ala Archa National Park is an alpine national park in the Tian Shan mountains of Kyrgyzstan, established in 1976 and located approximately 40 km south of the capital city of Bishkek.
The park covers about 200 square kilometers, and its altitude ranges from about 1,500 meters at the entrance to a maximum of 4,895 meters at Peak Semenova Tian-Shanski, the highest peak in the Kyrgyz Ala-tau range of the Tian Shan.
There are more than 20 small and large glaciers and some 50 mountain peaks within the park.
Two smaller rivers, the Adygene and the Ak-Sai, originate from these glaciers' melting waters.
The Adygene gorge is a wooded valley with waterfalls, springs and abundant trout.
The park includes the gorge of the Ala-Archa River and the mountains surrounding it.
This photo was captured from the Burana tower with the view on Ala Archa.
