Lake Kapka-Tash


Lake Kapka-Tash (local residents call it Kol-bashi, which translates to "Source, beginning (head) of the lake"). Indeed, a river flows out of this lake, feeding into the next large lake and filling it.

Lake Kapka-Tash is small; its northern slope is sad, covered only with sparse shrubs and individual trunks of unremarkable juniper. In contrast, the southern shore is extremely picturesque. The slopes of the Fergana Range (Kenkol Ridge) descend to it. The peaks of the ridge are covered with snow, below is a tier of greenish-blue Tien Shan firs, and even lower, a deciduous forest descends to the winding shores of the lake: birch interspersed with hawthorn and rowan, among the forest, individual candles of the beautiful fir stand proudly.

Lake Kapka-Tash is of moraine origin; at its upper reaches, a wide marshy cone of the river of the same name is visible. A trail runs along the southern shore of the lake among forest groves and leads to the river flowing out of it.
