During the tours, guests will be able to explore the territory of the peak, find out that the peak is located in the Issyk-Kul region near the border of Kazakhstan.

Usually, locals prefer to refer to the peak as "The Prince of Spirits" or "The Lord of the Sky". The peak had different names at different times, because when the researcher studied the peak, he made a mistake and confused the peak with Pobeda peak. In the beginning, the peak was called Kan Tau or (Blood Mountain). Most likely, this peak was so named because of the bloody sunset, or those who died while climbing the peak.

You can rent a car during tours of Kyrgyzstan and find out that in 1931, the first team that was able to conquer the peak was from Ukraine. During the existence of the Soviet Union, people could not just explore the mountains, as it was forbidden. This may have been due to the fact that the area was not well studied at the time. You will be able to see the mountain up close and also on the way in tours to enjoy the views of the Enilchek glacier, Lake Merzbacher, as well as the incredible scenery of valleys, rivers, and gorges with charming views.
