Uchkun is a small town in the Naryn Oblast of Kyrgyzstan, located in the high altitude of the Tien Shan mountain range in the east of the country, near the border with China. It is remote and sparsely populated, with a predominantly ethnic Kyrgyz population and an economy that relies on animal husbandry and seasonal agriculture. Surrounded by magnificent alpine landscapes and grasslands, Uchikun is a base for exploring natural ecology and traditional nomadic culture.
Nestled in a river valley at an altitude of about 3,000 meters above sea level, Uchikun enjoys a cold and dry climate with long, harsh winters and short cool summers. The region is a key point of access to historical trading routes such as the Tashrabat Pass and has a unique highland ecosystem suitable for trekking and adventure tourism.
The local population retains a traditional nomadic lifestyle and is known for its felt accommodation and dairy production. The economy is based on animal husbandry, producing wool and meat, and a growing tourism industry that attracts visitors to experience the untouched nature and Kyrgyz folklore.
