Peak Manas

Peak Manas - is the highest point of the Talas Ala-Too (4482 m).


This bare peak in the western part of the Talas Ala-Too ridge has very steep slopes where snow and ice do not accumulate. The Talas Ala-Too has a narrow rocky shore and its peaks rise above the 4000-meter mark. In the pre-crested zone, there are significant glaciers, and the slopes are heavily intersected by gorges, with powerful ridges branching off from the southern slope — Chatkal, Chandalash, and Pskem.

Due to the steep slopes, only a few lucky individuals with superhuman willpower manage to conquer this peak.

Named after the great Kyrgyz hero Manas, this peak is a symbol of independence.
