Ala-Archa Gorge + walk to the “Broken Heart” stone! - the best option for a half-day tour!

Let's get some sleep and head to the mountains!

Ala-Archa Gorge is one of the most famous attractions in Kyrgyzstan. Ala-Archa Gorge is located in the Chui region and is a national park. Every year this high-mountain gorge receives hundreds of thousands of tourists, both local and foreign. There are several reasons for such popularity. Firstly, Ala-Archa Gorge is located only 40 kilometers from Bishkek and has all the necessary tourist infrastructure: a good asphalt road, shops, hotels, cafes, and places to relax in the picturesque nature.

Secondly, the Ala-Archa Gorge has its own geographical features - it is located in the central and highest part of the Kyrgyz Range - the second longest range of the Tien Shan. Therefore, it is here that the mountains rise the highest above the plain, and here begin numerous trails to the highest peaks of the Kyrgyz Range.

Ala-Archa is famous for its untouched nature: vast spruce forests, birch groves, numerous springs with clean glacial water and mighty cliffs.
