The Naryn (Kyrgyz: Нарын, Uzbek: Norin) is the largest and most water-abundant river in Kyrgyzstan. rises in the Tian Shan mountains in Kyrgyzstan, Central Asia, flowing west through the Fergana Valley into Uzbekistan. Here it merges with the Kara Darya (near Namangan) to form the Syr Darya. It is 807 kilometres (501 mi) long (together with its upper course Chong-Naryn) and drains a basin area of 59,100 square kilometres (22,800 sq mi). It has an annual flow of 13.7 cubic kilometres (11,100,000 acre⋅ft).
The basin is bounded by the Terskey Alatoo, Kyrgyz Ala-Too and Talas Ala-Too ranges to the north; by the Kakshaal Too to the south; by the Ak-Shyrak Massif to the east; and by the Fergana Range to the west.
