The Boktykaryn (Kazakh: Боқтықарын) is a river in Sozak District, Turkistan Region, Kazakhstan. It is 123 kilometres (76 mi) long.[1]
The river basin is used for watering livestock grazing in the surrounding area.[1]
Course
The Boktykaryn has its sources in an artesian aquifer area of the western sector of the Betpak Dala. It heads roughly southwards, about 8 km (5.0 mi) to the east of the Sarysu river. The Boktykaryn runs parallel to the Sarysu channel for most of its course until in its last stretch it bends southwestwards, and then again southwards shortly before its mouth. Finally, it reaches intermittent lake Ashchykol of the Ashchykol Depression and enters it from the northern end.[2][3]
The river is fed by snow and dries up in the summer months.[1]
