There is estimated to be 40 000 rivers and streams in Kyrgyzstan that are about 150 000 km. The access to them can be done using the services of car rent. The draining ability is about 47km³ of water per year. Water occurs due to the melting of snow and glaciers, rainfalls high in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan. Rains are estimated about the fifth of the water flow.

The majority of streams are located at high altitudes and speed flow of streams leaves no opportunity to visit during tour in Kyrgyzstan. When country visitors demand more information needed for rafting or canoeing, it becomes rather difficult, as all necessary information is given already. We would like you to be careful on tours as well as while renting a car. It is known that the longest river in Kyrgyzstan is Naryn of 535m, flows from Big and Little rivers in the city.
