This is a wonderful place to relax with family and friends. A ride on the cable car gives stunning views of Almaty and the mountains. There are cafes and attractions at the top where you can spend time.
However, there are a lot of people on weekends, and sometimes you have to stand in line. Prices for food and entertainment are above average. Overall, this is a great place to visit!
At the upper station, you can find an observation deck, a cafe or recreation areas, which makes the trip even more enjoyable. This is not just transport, but real entertainment, which is suitable for both family holidays and romantic walks. I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to see the city or nature from a new angle!
Our business card. A beautiful, cozy, unusual place for a walk. Cable car, attractions, observation deck, restaurants of national cuisine Abai and Inzhu, cafes, altybakan, mini zoo. The main thing is clean air, panoramic views and an amazing atmosphere. If someone is afraid of the funicular, then you can get by bus, first to the ascent point on routes 99 and 95, then buy a ticket at the ticket office and a special bus will take you and bring you back. Only cash is accepted at the checkout.
We were here with the whole family, it was very cool, great. We also took a ride on the Ferris wheel, the views are super. And on the road down the slope, a 5-year-old child is completely delighted. There is a small zoo, they also sell animal feed there, the prices are reasonable. There are also souvenir shops for tourists. There is a cafe to have a snack, it is quite tasty))) It turned out to be a great evening!!!! We took a photo for memory, printed it out, very cool
Excellent view of the city from above . There is a kennel with animals and attractions for children. The area is small. It's a good time for a weekend.
Cool cable car!!! The view is awesome, the beauty is indescribable. The cabins are good. However, the prices are a little expensive, both on the booths and on the car,
In general, an interesting but overrated place, the prices are horse-drawn, entertainment without frills, but in abundance. There is a beautiful view and plenty of space to pass an hour or two.
There is a beautiful view of Almaty. The territory has great potential based on the fact that the flow of tourists and Kazakhstanis themselves and I would like to see something more interesting there than a zoo and an old amusement park
We haven't been here for a long time! When we arrived this year, we were a little upset! There are a lot of people, but there are few benches, there are only attractions and cafes everywhere, there is nowhere to walk! Ticket prices have been significantly raised! It turns out to be very expensive for a large family!
A good rope from the city to the mountains.
The prices are high,
When I was there, there were no queues, but in summer they are big.
It is good that there is a small parking nearby, very convenient.
There's not much to do upstairs, except maybe a view of the city. And for some reason the sleigh was dismantled.
Everything is perfect: trailers, both landing pads, super views. One thing is very seriously wrong: sharply, unreasonably high prices. It has always been possible to take the bus up as an alternative. With of course 95 and 99 buses. Or even walk up for free. But the bus prices have also been inflated.
Such Beauty, everything has changed so much. It is beautiful and Interesting not only for children, but also for adults. I really want to come back again.
1. A great park for family time.
2. There is a lot of everything from attractions to animals.
3. Restaurants provide average food, but the price tag is not average. Or we were so lucky in Abai, 3 times the same impression.
4. View terraces.
5. There is no way to get by taxi.
6. You can't reach the TV tower, everything is blocked off.
7. In general, visit 1-2 times, look at the city from a height.
8. The people on the funicular are strange, the queue is huge, and there are 4 people riding... fans stand in line.
9. It glows with lights at night.
10. The Ferris wheel is the most unnecessary thing here.
Very cool beautiful views that combine with incredible mountain views and original country houses and Soviet garages. There is a very pleasant restaurant on the top, it is cooked on coals, not on electric grill, so I recommend it!
The road itself is in good condition, but the fare and prices at the top are a bit shocking. It's a little expensive for me, especially for an overturned house. Therefore, the score is 4.
It's expensive for the price, but the views are interesting. There is a lot of entertainment at the top, including for children, there is even a petting zoo. It is necessary to put more time on the way back from the top, there is a chance to get into a human traffic jam on the descent by the end of the cable car.
It's a great place, the cabins are clean. In April 2024, it cost 5,000 tenge round trip.
There are several photo zones at the top. Of the nuances, at the time of our arrival, most of the territory was closed for repairs, but this did not spoil the impression!
If possible, avoid the public paid toilet, just a tip! We are very impressed!
Otherwise, it is worth visiting and admiring the mountains, taking photos in national costumes!
Beauty!!! It's a very atmospheric place. I definitely recommend it for a visit!! There are no queues ! The view from the cabin is very impressive! I will definitely come back more than once!!!
There is a huge queue at the entrance. Ugly views of the private sector on the rise. And all this for a considerable price. For example, it is also worth climbing Shymkent, but there are beautiful views of the mountains and the length is much longer.
A cable car to the nearest hill with a beautiful observation deck over the city. Everything is well organized, comfortable cabins. The time on the way up (as well as down) will not take much
If you are in Almaty for at least half a day, I strongly advise you to visit Koktobe and take a ride on a cable car. The views are amazing! And if there is a lot of time, then it is necessary to go to Shymkent. There is a cable car there, but they are as different as the sensations from them.
One of the mandatory places to visit because of the excellent view of the surrounding area, you can not walk at all, in principle, for local entertainment, you immediately go to the left of the lift and again to the left, we go to the slope and that's it, we admire the views, you can walk along the sidewalk along the slopes to restaurants and then through the zoo up to towers, and then go home 🤷♂️ by the way, inzhu restaurant has a good hookah and you can sit on the terrace with a view of medeu 🌌
Among the advantages of the park: a cable car with scenic views, a view of the city and partly of the mountains. Photos of the mountains can be taken by going down the road.
The rest of the cons: there is practically nowhere to walk, some attractions (a possible advantage for families with children only), toilets are paid, free closed, prices are high. The view of the most picturesque mountains is closed either by fences or by some buildings.
We arrived by cable car, back by taxi. Upon departure, you need to pay 10 thousand tenge, which was a big minus, since it was not written about it anywhere. The place itself is good and there is a place to eat. There are also attractions and a zoo.
A great park for children and adults. In good weather, the views are amazing. Getting to know the city is a must-visit. There is a small zoo and a lunopark. Cafe.
A small park, suitable for walking with children.
You can get there by lift, by car or on foot. Walking is free, but for a long time. But on the way there are a couple of great places for photos and a few shops.
Treats for zoo residents can be bought on the spot
A conveniently located cable car simply forces you to use it to climb a Kok-Tobe. An amusement park and an incredible view of the city are waiting for you upstairs! Prices don't bite pleasantly....
It's a cool park. It's nice to walk. The view of the mountains is beautiful. The zoo is indescribable. I love animals. The cable car is also a very interesting topic. Beautiful view of the city.
Great road! It was an autumn day after meetings.
Everything is well maintained, a good observation deck is excellent!
There is practically no queue on a working day,
It's better to go on a sunny day, the city is beautiful and everything looks different.
The view is good on the mountain, but there are a lot of tree plantations that are increasingly blocking it. Apparently, the idea was to create a shadow, they interfere with the view a lot.
The TV tower is not working. Lots of attractions, a monument to the Beatles.
Travel to this small mountain is comparable to the cost of climbing a ski resort with several queues.
They've ruined a natural landmark! They closed the entire view of the mountains and the city with attractions and cafes.Space ticket prices. Wasted money! I regretted that we went there as a family at all
It makes sense to go only if you entertain the children upstairs with all sorts of attractions, food, exhibitions. I didn't see any particularly beautiful views, it's better to get to the mountains and spend more time there
The advantages are a cool cable car and a beautiful view of the city. There's not much to do in the park. There are many attractions a la Anapa, a small zoo with chickens and goats, which will interest only very little ones. A lot of people. Locals recommend coming here in the evening to admire the sunset.
A very beautiful view of the city. There is a cable car. A wonderful fast coaster attraction. Abai and Inju Restaurant. There is a very tasty lagman in Abai. I ate several times myself and was satisfied!
One of the city's attractions is the Kok-Tobe cable car. There is a beautiful view of the city from above. It is better to go down on foot, so other views are more interesting
I have lived in Almaty for so many years, and I rode a cable car for the first time. Awesome The staff is polite and friendly. The disadvantages begin at the Kok Tobe itself, or rather in those cafes that are located there. Unpleasant smell
Beautiful view, everything is clean, there are souvenir shops, a cafe and a restaurant, entertainment pavilions for children, a small zoo and two descent/ascent options: a cable car and minibuses
The attraction of our city! A beautiful view of the TV tower and Koktobe opens from the cableway cabin! VOAD as in the palm of your hand! Beautiful city at the foot of the mountains - beloved Almatushechka! ❤️
I understand that this is one of the favorite vacation spots of the townspeople. There are a lot of people with children. Some attractions are touching, well, if not from childhood, then certainly from the 90s. The sunset looks beautiful from the mountain. If it hadn't been for the rain and the plane, I would have been happy to take a longer walk.
A great place for walking with children.
You need to be prepared for the fact that they will definitely want to ride on all the attractions.
A bonus to the good weather is a gorgeous view of the city!
