Archa-Toer pass

The Karakabak gorge, and the Asantukum gorge, are two stunningly beautiful valleys located in the Jeti Oguz district. These valleys are separated by a mountain pass called the Archa Tor pass (difficulty 1A), which offers spectacular views of the surrounding mountains.

One of the highlights of the Archa Tor pass is the stunning view of the Head of Sugar peak, which stands at an altitude of 4189 meters. From the pass, you can also enjoy breathtaking views of the Chatyr Tor peaks.

The pass is open to visitors from mid-June till mid-October and offers nice camping sites on both sides. If you're planning to hike through the pass, it's important to be well-prepared for the trip, as the terrain can be challenging.
