North Engilchek Base Camp

The North Engilchek Base Camp is located at an altitude of about 4000 meters on the glacier of the same name in the Northern Tien-Shan. Here, among the majestic mountain ranges, there are about 40 double tents on wooden platforms, which provide comfort and stability even in the harsh conditions of the high mountains. The camp offers breathtaking panoramic views of the main gem of these places – the legendary Khan-Tengri peak.

For climbers, this is the starting point for reaching the peaks, especially Khan-Tengri, which has become the dream of many mountain conquerors. And for those who want to experience the beauty and power of nature without climbing, Northern Engilchek offers a unique opportunity to touch the pristine beauty of glaciers, walk along moraines, and admire crystal-clear mountain lakes. Here, everyone can immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the majestic and untouched Northern Tien-Shan.
