Gorge Bajankol.
Gorge Bajankol one of the most beautiful and picturesque places of Tjan-Shansky mountains. It is in a border zone. Before very green gorge on which the river Bajankol proceeds, it is possible to reach by the helicopter from camp of Penalties-penalties or to reach by the car from a city of Almaty. The unattainable kingdom of snow in the winter and magnificent colors in the summer.
To the south, upwards on gorge at height of 3200 meters, gorge it is narrowed to come to the end with gray-brown moraines of a glacier Bajankolsky from which the river Bajankol originates. Further over them almost unknown mountain tops (five of them exceed 5000) tower majestic, but: peak Kazakhstan (5741), peak of Bajankol (5841), peak of Semenova (5816), peak of Karlytau (5450), peak the Frontier guard (5258), peak of Eleven (5437), and also one of the most tremendous tops of Tjan-Shanja - the Marble Wall (6400), vertical 500 m dump of the yellow marble topped with an enormous ice cap which anybody never dared to take place. In a sunny day in the distance behind a ridge it is possible to see the snow-white pyramid "Khan Tengri" towering over all tops of this area. From gorge Bajankol at the beginning of the century Gottfried Mertsbaher has tried to reach bottom of a file of Khan Tengri.
In the top part of gorge Bajankol there are two excellent places for a bivouac, more convenient of which what is located above on gorge before the Bajankolsky glacier, between two moraines.
