Photospheric parameters and chemical composition are determined for the single-lined chromospherically active RS CVn-type star 29 Draconis (HD 160538). From the high resolution spectra obtained on the Nordic Optical Telescope, abundances of 22 chemical elements, including the key elements such as 12C, 13C, N and O, were investigated. The differential line analysis with the MARCS model atmospheres gives Teff=4720 K, log g=2.5, Fe/H]=-0.20, [C/Fe]=-0.14, [N/Fe]=0.08, [O/Fe]=-0.04, C/N=2.40, 12C/13C=16. The low value of the 12C/13C ratio gives a hint that extra mixing processes in low-mass chromospherically active stars may start earlier than the theory of stellar evolution predicts.
