Kyzylart Pass

Kyzylart Pass (Russian: Кызыл-Арт; Kyrgyz: Кызыл-Арт ашуусу) is a mountain pass and border crossing in the Trans-Alay Range on the border of Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan.

[1] The border checkpoint on the Kyrgyz side is Bor-Döbö.

It is crossed by the Pamir Highway which leads south from Sary-Tash in the Alay Valley up onto the Pamir plateau toward Karakol Lake and Murghab, Tajikistan.

In the late nineteenth century the Russians explored and eventually occupied the Pamir plateau.
