Toktogul reservoir – the largest in Central Asia, formed by the dam of the Toktogul hydroelectric power station on the Naryn River. Clear water and its temperature, rising to 25 degrees in the period from May to September; without numerous tourists, almost wild beach; green hills and mountains – all this attracts swimmers and fishermen. The road to the reservoir runs along the Bishkek-Osh highway and allows you to get acquainted with such natural sights as the Chichkan gorge and the Susamyr valley. Chichkan Gorge is located at an altitude of 2200m and is replete with picturesque mountain landscapes, stormy rivers and rich vegetation, and the freshest air gives you a real sense of all the grace of nature. Susamyr valley is also famous for its unique species – green and lush meadows; winding rivers – surrounded by mountain peaks up to 4500m.
