They want there:

Kyrgyzstan is a very mountainous country, but on Engilchek Glacier you can really feel like you are at the center of the mountain. Its length over 60 kilometers is one of the world's longest glaciers outside of the polar areas. In the eastern part it divides into two massive shoulders – the Northern and Southern Engilchek Glacier. After the Engilchek Glacier leads a very interesting trek overlooking Mount Chan Tengri
