We invite you to spend your weekend in this popular place for your leisure time. The Ala-Archa National Park was created in 1976 and occupies about 120.000 hectares just 40 km from the capital. Ala-Archa is translated from Kyrgyz language as “motley juniper”, and once you have hiked in the gorge with its velvet green slopes, stony mountain rivers and towering peaks, you will understand why. Along the way you can stop for a nice picnic in a shady grove of larch and pine trees. Here you can leave all your problems behind… Ala Archa - 40 km from Bishkek - hiking 8:30 Depart from Bishkek 9:30 Hiking along the Ala Archa valley, visit of the waterfall 12:00 Lunch 13:00 Hiking 15:00 Drive back to Bishkek 17:00 Arrival to Bishkek Note: This program can be prolonged according to your desire.
