Mountain summit

Chiavari Peak (informal name)

The first-ascent team reports 4145 m for the summit it named Chiavari in 2016. This is an expedition name rather than proof of an officially standardized name.

Chiavari is an informal summit name used by the authors of a 2016 climbing expedition in Ala-Archa.

Chiavari is an informal summit name used by the authors of a 2016 climbing expedition in Ala-Archa. Their account places the rock objective above the Uchitel Glacier, within the high alpine group of the Kyrgyz Ala-Too.

The associated Roulette Kyrghiza line concerns the eastern face. The place is best understood through that expedition context: a particular rock formation and face above a glacier basin, rather than an established village destination or a broadly named walking area. The informal name is retained with that attribution, without presenting it as evidence of an officially standardised mountain name.

Named summit reference from the cited map or primary report, not a trailhead.

Getting there

When to visit

The lower valley, lake basin and summit have different snow and weather conditions; check the intended objective separately.

Good to know

Confirm local access, opening arrangements and any entry rules before travel. Respect protected sites and local communities; leave the place as you found it.
