font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\">Many sources claim that Kel Suu was created by an earthquake and the landslide caused by it in the 1980s, that formed a natural dam over the Kurumduk River which is about 17 km long and changes in width from 800 m to as narrow of just few meters. (You need to cross this river to reach Kel Suu.) Nevertheless, there are scientific proof telling that Lake Kel-Suu was already visited on August 28, 1879 by Alexey Mikhailovich Fetisov, a Russian scientist. His findings have been published in the \u201cTurkestan News\u201d in 1881, in issues 35, 37, 38, 39, 45, 46 and 51. The river from Kel Suu originates from an underground passage, meaning that the water sprouts out from a cave or smaller openings between the rocks on the lower side of the natural dam.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\">Kel Suu lake is also similar to the\u00a0<\/span><a style=\"font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: justify;\" href=\"https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/kyrgyzstan\/destinations-kg\/issyk-kul\/merzbacher-lake\/\">Merzbacher<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\">\u00a0lake, meaning it can sometimes lose all its water as happened last time in the spring of 2019. (Although Merzbacher does it every year due to melting glacial dam.) By the autumn of the same year the lake was almost full again and it has not gotten dry since. The lake is not very deep and the depth varies from 5 to 10 meters depending on the season and often freezes all the way to the bottom during winters.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5833c0c e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"5833c0c\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0801994 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"0801994\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2279eee elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"2279eee\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Kel_Suu_Kurumduk_river-1024x682.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-8277\" alt=\"Kurumduk river starting from underground near Kel Suu dam\" srcset=\"https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Kel_Suu_Kurumduk_river-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Kel_Suu_Kurumduk_river-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Kel_Suu_Kurumduk_river-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Kel_Suu_Kurumduk_river.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0f614e4 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"0f614e4\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d05240 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"2d05240\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Kel_Suu_Kol_Tetiri_dry-1024x682.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-8278\" alt=\"Dry Kel Suu lake\" srcset=\"https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Kel_Suu_Kol_Tetiri_dry-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Kel_Suu_Kol_Tetiri_dry-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Kel_Suu_Kol_Tetiri_dry-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Kel_Suu_Kol_Tetiri_dry.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ca74fdd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ca74fdd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Thanks for the dry lake pic\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/al.iv.og\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">al.iv.og<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1c3937f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1c3937f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\">As quite often with alpine lakes the color of the lake can change drasticly according to the light that is reflecting from the surface of the lake.

If you venture further south along the lake by a boat, the mountains get less steep and you can find unspoilt green meadows with abundant amounts of mountain flowers and you can also walk by the beaches of Kel Suu, which is not possible in the northern end due to the steep cliffs starting straight from the lake and a glacier pouring its water to the lake through a long waterfall.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-aaf583f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"aaf583f\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ca5fc2 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"2ca5fc2\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3b8b817 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3b8b817\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Kel-Suu-Horseback-1024x682.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-28787\" alt=\"Kel Suu horseback riding\" srcset=\"https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Kel-Suu-Horseback-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Kel-Suu-Horseback-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Kel-Suu-Horseback-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Kel-Suu-Horseback.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0600dc2 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"0600dc2\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3bc0a80 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3bc0a80\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kel-Suu-shore-with-boat-1024x682.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-69088\" alt=\"Kel Suu lake with boat\" srcset=\"https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kel-Suu-shore-with-boat-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kel-Suu-shore-with-boat-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kel-Suu-shore-with-boat-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/central-asia.guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kel-Suu-shore-with-boat.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6079ceb e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"6079ceb\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-283b1bb elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"283b1bb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-925f045 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"925f045\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">As said there are several caves in Kel Suu area. The easiest one to reach is just right after reaching the dam. It has a narrow entrance but gets bigger inside and you will find yourself in a vast hall with an \u201caltar\u201d. Afterwards the cave descends and gets divided into two narrow passages. There are no stalactites but the walls of the lower corridors are covered with an interesting coral reminding texture. A recent <a href=\"https:\/\/asiamountains.net\/en\/blog-en\/lebanese-speleonectidae\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">study tour<\/a> by speleologists also told about many more caves in Kel Suu and also in the nearby valleys.

While it is +40C in Bishkek, it is not rare to snow in Kel Suu even in August. Therefore, be sure to pack warm clothes too. Gloves, long underpants\/thermals and rain proof clothing might all be needed. On the other hand, you might be enjoying +20C and sunshine so make sure to bring your cap and sun screen with you as well. If you plan on hiking to the lake, it is better to bring waterproof hiking boots as the soil is partly swampy and wet.

In May it can still be quite cold though and the water level in the Kurumduk river is higher so it is harder to reach Kel Suu. Sometimes there is still some snow and ice next to the river in May and beginning of June. It might be also that the yurt villages and therefore the horses are not always yet readily in place in May so you might not have other option than to hike to the lake.\u00a0<\/p><p>The best time to visit is from July to August when the temperatures are nice and everything is green and blooming, especially in July. It is not uncommon though to have some snow falling even during July &#8211; August due to the very high elevation. For bird watching it is also the best to visit during the warmest time. If you wish to see the beautiful mountain flowers, June is the best time.
