The unspoilt peaks of Juku

At 4,000 metres, Juku Peak has no glacier but can be seen from afar. It lies between the Jukutchak and Juku valleys, and is the first high peak on the ridge.

Behind it, several peaks follow one another up to 4249 metres and the Ashutor pass at 3636 metres, which links the Ashu-Kashka-Suu gorge with the Jukutchak gorge to the east.
