Lake Issyk-Kul located in north-east of Kyrgyz Republic and it is one of the biggest and deepest lakes on the world. The lake is tributed with 134 rivers. The lake has no flowing off, which accumulates mineral substances coming with only those rivers and rain. In order to define the radiological situation of southern-east part of Lake Issyk-Kul in 1998– 2005 are done radiological investigations by International Science Center (Kyrgyz Republic) in the frame of INTAS project. In this article we tried to assess the radon situation on costal area of Lake Issyk-Kul, based on the studies done.
