The Ak-Sai waterfall is a prominent gem within the renowned Ala-Archa National Park, captivating visitors with its enchanting allure. Situated merely 42 km from Bishkek, this waterfall unveils its splendor within the extraordinary beauty of Ala-Archa gorge, nestled in the namesake national park. Elevating to a height of 70 meters, the Ak-Sai waterfall stands as the park's most frequented attraction. Easily visible from the trail leading from Ratsek cabin base camp, it serves as a starting point for climbers venturing to Kyrgyz Ala-Too's highest points, such as the Crown (4860 m), Free Korea peak (4740 m), Bilan-Bashi (4700 m), and the towering Semenova-Tyan-Shan (4875 m). The allure of the glacier ridge, including Ak-sai, Golubina, Top-Karagai, Tuyuk, and Adygene of Ala-Archa, beckons with about 50 glaciers. While the Ak-Sai waterfall is a summer spectacle, with cascading water creating a million sprays at its base, it doesn't lose its charm during winter. The powerful water stream crystallizes into an intricate ice formation, adorning the landscape with a surreal ice block. In recent years, Kyrgyzstan has witnessed a surge in the popularity of ice climbing, captivating athletes and corporate entertainment enthusiasts alike. During winter, the Ak-Sai waterfall and its glacier transform into a hub for this captivating spectator sport, offering both exercise and relaxation amidst its stunning setting.
