After breakfast at the hotel, we depart for Ala Archa National Park, located just 30 km from Bishkek. This protected area is one of the most famous natural sites in Kyrgyzstan, created to preserve the unique alpine ecosystems of the Kyrgyz Ala-Too range. The road leads us to a picturesque mountain valley where the fast-flowing Ala Archa River cuts through forests and rocky slopes.
You will explore the gorge on foot, surrounded by a landscape of high peaks, glaciers, alpine meadows, and fragrant pine trees. With more than fifty summits rising above the valley, the park offers a striking panorama and a true sense of untouched mountain wilderness.
The trail leads toward a scenic waterfall cascading down from the upper slopes — a refreshing and photogenic highlight of the area, set among rocks, spray, and mountain vegetation.
In the afternoon, we return to Bishkek, carrying with us the fresh air and powerful impressions of Kyrgyzstan’s iconic national park.
