Due to its regular pyramid-like shape raising above all other mountains of the range this summit can very well seen from the city of Almaty. The route to the summit runs over the Talgarsky pass and across the Bogdanovich glacier. The camp is set on the moraine of the glacier. From the camp the route follows along the lateral moraine of the Bogdanovich glacier to the Komsomolsky pass from where the rocky part of the climb begins. The rocky part of the route requires the use of special mountaineering equipment. The descent from the summit to the pass is performed by roping down.
