That is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to.

A pleasant walk and clean air that cleanses.When a bus with people passes, the smell of exhaust is very noticeable, which is interesting in the city you no longer feel it)Looking at this lake, you can imagine with horror what happened here on July 7, 1963, when a mudflow from the upper reaches of the Issyk River (mountain Zharsai) destroyed a natural dam in the western part of the lake, emptying the reservoir. The mudflow claimed about a thousand lives and caused significant destruction in the city Issyk. Pioneer camps, rest houses, entire streets and neighborhoods, and sown fields were demolished by the mudslide. The Issyk River changed its course as a result of a mudflow. Some time after the mudslide, there was a small lake on the site of Issyk. The Issyk mudflow of 1963 was one of the largest and most destructive mudflows on the territory of the USSR.

A very beautiful place, where the splendor of nature pleases, where it is easy to breathe. You inhale the aromas of mountain herbs. There is an asphalt road to the lake. Everything is very convenient.

It is very dirty on the lake itself there is a lot of garbage weeds the shore has not been cleaned travel 150 tenge in one direction the minibus is old but the driver is polite in general it would not be bad if only one passage was put in order the revenue for one day on the old route groove and the poor cleanliness and delight of the steps to the lake in terrible condition they were not really made by people and professionals are builders because they can't call it steps

One of the favorite places of the Almaty region since childhood. It's very beautiful, I've been there many times, but every time I admire the beauty of these places.

A place with an unusual atmosphere. I highly recommend visiting, but only early in the morning and on the opposite shore there are fewer people and more beautiful places

An affordable one-day tour. The lakes in the mountains are beautiful as always! Of course, it does not reach the lakes of Kola and Kayenda, but the views here are also amazing!!!

It is very beautiful, of course, as everywhere in the mountains. The road is normal, the views are cool too. You will either have to walk to the lake itself or take an electric rickshaw for 500 tenge per person.

How can I describe it here. Go and watch.
It is carefully guarded, which is nice.
But their national nuances remain... Feature.
And here is a really magical color. Master si

A very beautiful mountain place with a view of the river flowing into the lake. The water is crystal clear and there are fish in the lake. There is a forest of fir trees around.

Pros as always, nature is 100%, but people worse than animals do not clean up garbage everywhere and a big minus is that there is no condition for people at all!, they removed the minibus from the barrier to ride only an electric moto for 2000t is very expensive...where is the akimat looking?

There is no infrastructure there, except for a few tents with some food and honey.

The lake is beautiful. The views are great. There is a place to walk and have a small picnic. One problem. A small parking lot. There are practically no places after 11 a.m. on weekends. Tourist buses are also coming. Many people park their cars on the side of the road

I really like this place. A beautiful lake, around which there are many options to walk around the neighborhood. Above the lake there is a self-protective dam made between the rocks. It's a pleasure to walk there.

It is a pretty place, there is a stone for tourist photography and a dog. You can walk along the road beyond the lake, it's quiet and the air is good.

Приятно, что до озера нужно немного пройтись. И все машины и лавки в стороне. Озеро красивое! До устья реки добраться сложновато. На берегу очень много людей расстелившихся в теньке. Горной прохлады ожидать там не стоит. С дорогой все хорошо и добираться на своей машине удобно.

One of the most beautiful places near Almaty. It is necessary to visit here to feel all the greatness of nature

Очень красивое озеро и шикарная природа. До озера нужно идти довольно долго, подниматься придется в гору. Если хотите можете поехать на микроавтобусе за символическую плату. Около озера стоят ловочки и одна крытая остановка. Мы попали в дождь и под остановкой места всем не хватило. Около самого озера никаких услуг нет, покупайте заранее на парковке всё что вам нужно. Территория непосредственно у озера никак не обустроена, дикая природа.

Добраться можно на своей машине до парковки перед этим нужно проехать экопост оплатить символический сбор .на парковке оставить машину и до самого озера можно добраться несколькими путями. либо пешком что я очень советую ведь даже дорога до озера очень красивая идти туда не так далеко и дорога вся асфальтированная .либо на автобусе или на электро автомобильчике типо гольф кара за символическую оплату . Добравшись до места спуститься по лестнице и перед вами открывается вся красота этого места

There was a choice between BAO and Issyk, but given the logistics before BAO, the choice became obvious.
I have never regretted choosing a place.
Unrealistically beautiful, fascinates all your attention.
Incomparable nature and location, I recommend everyone to visit!

A must-visit, there are no questions at all. Necessarily. Moreover, a place with a very scary story that claimed many lives. But it also brought a lot of discoveries. The visit will not leave 100% without emotions.

Please make the entrance paid. They fucked up the place. At the moment when I was there, 11 buses arrived there. Crowds of people. Everyone eats and throws leftovers. Everyone has their own music column. It's like we got into some kind of bazaar.
There is no privacy with nature there. The entry of 5000 tenge will fix everything.
The place is very cool. But people spoil everything. They don't know how to relax in nature.

A very beautiful lake! I would call it a miracle of nature. But there are also not good stories associated with this place in distant times. I really enjoyed the walk. I recommend it!!!!

A great place, I managed to get there every year. Unfortunately, it was closed this year due to the threat of a mudslide. I do not despair, summer is still ahead, God willing, we will go again.

Красивая природа, ракурсы для фото, имеются ровные места для пикника. В целом чисто. Чистота начинается с себя, поэтому всегда убираем и забираем все с собой. Минусы: ужасные туалеты, хотя их наличие по сравнению с другими местами радует))); выцветшие от солнца информационные вывески; запах дыма и шашлыка (не знаю разрешено ли, но в прошлом году люди готовили).
В целом, рекомендуется к посещению с семьей с пледом и легким перекусом))

We were there on 08/05/24, the lake has become shallow, the smell is rushing from it. You can look at the mountains, but there is little water itself and it is green in color.

Были на озере в ноябре. По пути несколько площадок с прекрасными видами. Доезжаешь до парковки, дальше пешком 1 км. Природа очень красивая. Даже снег и туман не испортили картину. Вдоль озера идёт тропинка. Вода очень красивого голубого цвета. Везде чисто. Советую к посещению.

Немного странно - оценивать природные достопримечательности. Не понятно с какой точки зрения оценивать. Озеро и горы просто потрясающе красивы, тут можно и 8, и 10 звезд ставить. Но вот как объект туризма, тут все гораздо печальней. Неужели нельзя хотя бы туалеты нормальные сделать?! Ну позорище же! Уже лет 10, а то и больше каждое новое правительство говорит про развитие туризма, а тут в одной из жемчужин Алматинского региона такой ужас…
