After the confluence of the Kara-Sug from the left, the river is called Ak-Sug and turns to the southeast. Another major left tributary is the Mungash-Ak . In the lower reaches, the Ak-Sug cuts through the Alasch Plateau in an easterly direction, before splitting into several arms of the river at Sug-Aksy , which flow into the Chemchik. The Ak-Sug has a length of 160 km. It drains an area of 3,170 km². The mean discharge at the Bora-Taiga gauge 34 km above the mouth is 13.18 m³ / s.
