Peak Khan Tengri

Our team would like to invite you to explore Khan Tengri Peak during our tours in Kyrgyzstan, as well as enjoy the charming views. Khan Tengri Peak has an altitude of 6995 meters above sea level. But together with the ice cap, the peak has a height of 7010 meters. You will be able to explore the peak during tours in Kyrgyzstan, see its charming views, and also learn that the peak is located in the Issyk Kul region on the border with Kazakhstan.

And during the tours in Kyrgyzstan, guests will be able to learn what the locals call the peak as the "Prince of Spirits" or "Lord of the Sky". In different periods of time, the peak had different names, because the researcher P. Semenov made a mistake when he studied the peaks and confused it with the Victory peak. At first, the mountain was called as Kan Tau, or as (Blood Mountain). It will be possible to find out that the name was given because of the blood of climbers who died while climbing the peak, as well as because of the red sunsets.

You will be able to rent a car on tours of Kyrgyzstan, and also explore the information that the peak was first explored by a group from Ukraine in 1931 and was able to climb the peak. This was most likely due to the unexplored territory. You can rent a car and explore the views of the Enilcek Glacier, enjoy the views of Lake Merzbacher, and also enjoy the charm of the valleys, rivers and gorges.
