Ysyk-Kol Lake is the second largest mountain lake in the world at the altitude of 1,607 meters above sea level, depth of 668 meters asl. Ysyk Kol Lake is 182 kilometers long and about 60 kilometers wide, with an area of 6,236 square kilometers.
Ysyk Kol is translated as a “warm lake” from the Kyrgyz language. It is true that it never freezes. Lake is surrounded by snow-capped high mountain ranges - Kungoi Ala-Too (“sunny” slopes) on the North and Terskei Ala-Too (“shady” slopes) on the South part. These high mountain ranges give the lake mild microclimate year around. About 118 rivers and streams flow into the lake (Jyrgalan, Type and even mineral hot springs), and no rivers coming out. So that it gives healing creativeness for the waters and salinity of 0,6%.
