geography
The Naryn area consists mainly of high mountains and plateaus, most of which are more than 2000 m high. In the north is the Songköl mountain lake, the second largest lake in the country after Issykköl . The Kölukök is also located in this area. The river Naryn runs through the area from east to west and is dammed several times.
traffic
Due to its poor location between several high mountain ranges, the Naryn area is poorly developed. Of the two larger roads, one leads from Kochkor (with a connection from Bishkek ) over the 3,030 m high Dolon Pass to the capital of the area. To the south, it reaches the Chinese border at the 3752 m high Turugart Pass . The other road opens up the north of the area and connects Kotschkor over the 3586 m high Töö pass with Kara-Balta , from where there is also a connection to Bishkek.
