Itinerary description
Ruta desde Ak-Suu (Teploklyuchenka) hasta el valle de Altyn Arashan, siguiendo el curso del rio del mismo nombre. Altyn Arashan es la base para numerosos trekkings y ascensiones como el Palatka, cuenta ademas con numerosos manantiales de aguas termales, algo que a esa altitud se agradece.

A nice easy walk up to a pretty hot springs complex, with some tempting peaks further on. Consider extending this to Ala-Kol lake on a two- or three-day walk as well.
