Tourist Center "Kashka-Suu"
History of the Base Creation
In 1976, when skiing was just starting to develop in Kyrgyzstan, a "Ski Lovers Club" was organized at the "Kyrgyz Electromotor" plant. The club included not only plant workers but also representatives from various fields and specialties. It brought together employees from "Kyrgyz Sanitary Installation" and "Geology Administration," architects, economists, geologists, all united by a love for the mountains and skiing, which allowed them to manufacture and launch a 870 m long ski lift powered by a gasoline engine in the winter of 1977.
During the off-season, each club member worked 15-20 labor days, which, alongside technical support from the "Kyrgyz Electromotor" plant, the "Kyrgyz Sanitary Installation" trust, and the "Geology Administration," facilitated the further development of the ski base.
In 1985, project documentation for development was prepared and approved. It included the construction of hotel facilities, a chairlift, and engineering structures. In 1991, due to the deteriorating economic situation of the plant and the collapse of the union state, a decision was made to create a Limited Liability Company (LLC) "Tourist Center Kashka-Suu" to preserve and further develop the complex, which allowed the completion of the construction and its commissioning.
Today, the "Tourist Center Kashka-Suu" has a hotel complex, a conference hall, a café, a sauna, chairlifts, and tow lifts, equipment rental, parking for cars, a sports ground, and an ice rink. The tourist center "Kashka-Suu" can accommodate 65 people at once in hotels of various comfort levels.
