The Korona ('crown') Peak is one of the most beautiful peaks of the Kyrgyz Ala-Too ranges, popular among climbers from around the world. The peak is located at the top of the Ak-Sai glacier in the Ala-Archa gorge. The name of this 4860 meter high peak is no coincidence; six mountain towers resemble a majestic crown when viewed from a distance. The towers are so steep that the snow does not manage to stay on their tops and walls, which adds to the splendor of the landscape.
