BELOGORKA WATERFALL IN SOKULUK GORGE

Belogorka Waterfall is one of the most striking natural landmarks near Bishkek — and the tallest waterfall in Chuy Region. Located in Sokuluk Gorge about 80 km from the capital, it sits at around 2,100 metres above sea level.

The waterfall drops 60 metres, and the water disperses into a fine mist before reaching the ground — on sunny days, a rainbow forms in the spray.

The trail follows the Sokuluk River for 3 km one way with minimal elevation gain, making it one of the few mountain routes that's genuinely comfortable for beginners and families with children.

The day tour with Intourists includes transfer from Bishkek and a guide throughout. Best time to visit is May through August, when the waterfall is at its most impressive.
