At-Bashy is a village in the Naryn Region of Kyrgyzstan, about 35km southwest of Naryn on the main highway to the Torugart Pass. It is the seat of At-Bashi District. The At-Bashy Range to the south extends to Lake Chatyr-Kul. The At-Bashy River comes in from the east and then runs northwest through a gorge in the Baybiche-Too range to join the Naryn River near Dostuk. It is the last considerable settlement before the Chinese border. The highway, built in 1906, runs southwest between the Baybache-Too and At-Bashy ranges before turning south and then east to reach the pass. As of 2009 it has a population of 10,764.
