Entrance and electric vehicle fees increase at Ala-Archa Park

The administration of Ala-Archa National Park in Kyrgyzstan has implemented new, higher fees for park entry and for vehicles, particularly electric ones. This adjustment marks a notable increase in the cost for visitors seeking to experience the natural beauty of the park.

According to the revised tariff schedule, the price for an adult entrance ticket has been raised from 200 Kyrgyz soms to 250 soms. For children between the ages of 7 and 14, the entrance fee has also seen an increase, moving from 150 soms to 180 soms. Children under the age of seven will continue to be admitted to the park free of charge.

In addition to personal entry fees, the park has also increased the charges for private electric vehicles. Owners of such vehicles will now have to pay 880 soms to enter the park, an increase from the previous rate of 800 soms. The park's administration has not yet provided specific reasons for these tariff adjustments.

The Ala-Archa National Park is a popular natural reserve located in the Kyrgyz Ala-Too range, known for its scenic mountain landscapes, glaciers, and hiking trails. The fee increases may impact visitor numbers, particularly for those who frequently visit or rely on electric vehicles for transport within the park.
