The GPX covers only the final ridge section towards Beshalchalutash. It does not show the full approach from Chunkurchak.
No elevation data is available for this track.
The source does not provide a complete surface survey. Expect conditions to change after rain, snow and river floods.
ABOUT THE PLACE
Beshalchalutash is a named mountain objective associated with the Chunkurchak side of the Kyrgyz Ala-Too south of Bishkek. The place belongs to the mountain landscape above the gorge, where wooded slopes and meadow terrain lead towards open upper ground.
The local club’s outing description distinguishes that changing landscape from the final scree approach to the peak. The interest therefore lies in more than the top alone: the sequence from forest to pasture and then to the upper mountain shows the different levels of this side of the range. It should not be confused with a visit to one of Chunkurchak’s recreation establishments.

ROUTE OVERVIEW
An approach to Beshalchalutash from Chunkurchak through forest, meadows and scree.
Summit elevation reported in the source: 3305 m.
An ascent needs a separate assessment of the approach, altitude, slope conditions and descent. A short summit track does not automatically include the valley approach, acclimatisation or preparation for technical terrain.
Track length: 0.6 km. This distance covers the track shown on the map. Add any approach, return or transfer sections that are outside it.
Choose the route after checking the actual start, finish and terrain with a local guide. Mapped geometry alone does not establish technical difficulty. Your group should be comfortable navigating offline and changing plans when conditions deteriorate.
Chuy Region
Confirm the actual approach with local guides and arrange return transport. The first track point may belong to an upper section rather than a vehicle-accessible trailhead.
Confirm transport to the actual trailhead, not just the nearest town. Agree the return pickup point and a latest contact time before leaving mobile coverage.
Ask locally about road access, entry rules and a permitted place to park. Use the line only for its stated mode of travel and exact scope.
Mount Club describes a forest and meadow approach followed by scree. The historical announcement establishes a specific ascent itinerary, while completion and present trail conditions are unverified.

Mountain weather can change quickly. Rain affects traction and river crossings; snow can remain on shaded slopes. Never assume a mapped line confirms a safe crossing or a passable trail. Check recent conditions locally, set a turnaround time and leave your plan with someone who can raise the alarm.
Plan your timing around the distance, ascent, terrain, weather and your group’s pace. Include breaks, the approach, descent and return transport. A past trip’s time is a reference, not a schedule for your group.
Confirm season and snow conditions before departure. Summer dates alone do not establish suitable conditions for a high mountain objective.
For an ascent, confirm technical equipment, acclimatisation and team competence requirements with a qualified guide.
