Kapka-Tash is a mountain lake associated with the Kara-Suu lake system in the Toktogul area of Jalal-Abad Region. An official environmental assessment identifies it in the upstream lake landscape, making it a distinct geographical object rather than another spelling of Kara-Suu.

The source confirms the lake, but it does not supply a current visitor itinerary or an independently checked shoreline arrival point. A stream with the same name in Osh Region is a different feature and is not used to place this lake on the map. Ask locally about the precise intended lake, current approach and conservation requirements before planning a walk beyond the more familiar Kara-Suu destination.
