Recently, we spent two unforgettable days on a retreat in the "Forest Fairy Tale", and this place was a real discovery for us!
The cozy atmosphere, harmony of nature and excellent service made our stay perfect. Spacious and clean rooms with stunning views of the forest are what you need for complete relaxation.
I would especially like to mention the thoughtful program of the retreat: active walks, meditations and delicious food cooked with love. The whole team of Lesnaya Skazka surrounded us with attention and care, helping us to completely disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the city.
After these two days, we felt refreshed, full of energy and inner peace. Thank you so much for this oasis of peace and inspiration! We will definitely come back and recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a place to relax and restore body and soul.

The best time to travel here is on weekdays (this is the most important conclusion for me for all seasons))). It's too crowded on weekends.
There is a buzz at any time of the year. In winter, it's clear - skiing, snow, sledding, etc.
In summer, it is much fresher and more pleasant here than in a stuffy hot city. We rode horses. Children usually get carried away on suspended obstacles, I used to shoot arrows - it's a thrill) there are good trails and routes for hiking enthusiasts. Well, it's unrealistically beautiful in autumn! And you can do all the same things as in the summer))
I haven't been in the spring - I need to catch up.
I've heard that there's plenty of room for mountain bikes, but that's not my sport.
The food is normal. The restaurants are clean and the prices are reasonable, especially considering how far they are located from competitors))
Lots of fun for courage of different levels)) you can fly over the gorge on the highway, but it's creepy for me to even look at this attraction) I can't tell you everything, but definitely whether to go there.

A cool place, beautiful, fresh, clean in the houses, the staff is friendly, friendly. The breakfasts are great, everything you need is there. Check in-check out is as fast and comfortable as possible. Only the village has very small houses in the trees, and the filling in the rooms in the form of dishes suffers. They came with children, and it was problematic to feed them with something because there were no appliances or a microwave inside. But it's still a great place)

We have been coming to this recreation area for many years now. The location is excellent, the nature is fascinating, we also lived in a cottage, in tree houses, this time in a yurt. It's very atmospheric, but in winter it takes time for the air conditioner and heaters to heat it up, which is probably the only small disadvantage. There is everything on site, restaurants, cafes, activities for children, there is a free shuttle service between the sites on the base, very convenient.

The best country resort in the Almaty region in terms of price-quality ratio. A normal breakfast, opportunities for walks with children in the forest, in the rope park, with horses, a large children's room and playground, strong instructors for children to learn how to ski. Of the restaurants, the most delicious food in Georgian. I recommend

When they can, everything is done at the highest level. It's a very cool place, the territory is well maintained, at night it has its own atmosphere. The blue house is patched up, but everything is done well, fireplace, kitchen, beds - they can whenever they want. The most important thing is that the houses are clean, I have been there more than once and noticed this. Stock up on money, dear houses, go skiing in winter, stay overnight, and in the morning there will be quite a decent breakfast in the yurt.

The base is beautiful. We were at the end of October, it snowed and we really found ourselves in a fairy tale. The nature is magnificent, there are restaurants on site where the service is also very good. I was upset by one fact for which I wanted to withdraw a point, but changed my mind - this is a children's center, to go there you have to pay 8 thousand per person. I thought that there would be some equipped playrooms where you can leave your child for a day and take a quiet walk, but no, there is NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I don't understand why they take money, it's a shame to show people for free, they also don't shake off the snow, they had to do it with their own hands before putting the child on a swing or somewhere else. I also went to the sauna, it was the best bath in my life.

As a family, we are not pros on the slopes, so compared to Cimbulac on these slopes, we were much calmer. At the same time, there is a place to ride!
For beginners, there are several trails, a "chair", and ropes.
It's a beautiful place, very close to the road: 20 meters - a locker room, 50 meters - a ski lift.
We took a taxi from the city - we paid 5.3 thousand tenge there, and back (we were just surprised!) The pitch is 6 minutes and the price is 4,6 thousand.
Of course, we were lucky with the weather!
But I think if it had snowed, or if it had been cooler, it wouldn't have spoiled anything at all!
Tomorrow we will go for night skiing.

A great place for beginners and trained riders.
The tracks are getting better and better prepared every year. There is a school for beginners.
You can taste delicious chebureks at the food court near the cable car. Special thanks to the developers of the Company's mobile application, by linking a skipass, you can top up with a card for any tariff.

A great place for active family and corporate holidays: fresh air, cleanliness, beautiful nature, walking areas, delicious cuisine. I recommend visiting on weekdays, as there is a very large influx of visitors on weekends. It is better to book places in restaurants in advance.

A wonderful ski resort. Delicious food in restaurants, various activities. There is something to do here even in the off-season, i.e. in summer. A wonderful variety of rooms at the hotel. There is a stunning view from the hill to which the cable car leads. View of 2 valleys, Almaty and Talgar.

We had a family vacation in December for 3 days. I liked it, there is a place to walk, where to eat. The nature is magnificent. We took improved rooms, everything is fine, only they heat up very much and we had to open the window. We used the service to entertain children, such a combo is expensive, but there were no other options. The staff is very friendly, they take feedback all the time.

The price tag is expensive for skiing, rent and accommodation, although the infrastructure is not bad, but there are many disadvantages that do not attract you to return a second time:
- A short length of trails - if you ride well, you will pass everything quickly and it will be boring.
- On a large slope, the lifts are very slow - it takes longer to climb up than to descend on your own.
- The hill sections are generally very short and the station of the beginning of the ascent is located above the place of descent, i.e. you have to stomp your feet down the hill, which is so nice in skis and even just in boots.
We rode at night (the tracks are well lit) and during the day.

The place is great, ideal for skiers and snowboarders, good mountains, ski lifts. We got into the high season on January 2-5, prices are very high, traffic jams at the entrance and exit are problems, the coffee quality at the vesely burger cafe is disgusting, and the service is just as poor, so take coffee and sandwiches with you, and you will save money and health. One of the advantages of the resort is the cool nature, gorgeous views, and lots of attractions. But! We need a lot, a lot, a lot of money.

The photos have not been preserved, they were two years ago. It's a good complex. There is everything for extreme people.I personally liked the individual sauna with an excellent bath attendant, taught me many new techniques of vaping. There are a lot of ladybugs, but they associate happiness with me and do not bother me in any way. The rooms are quite large and cozy, we stayed in a house near the restaurant. The beauty is incredible nearby. We were around September, the weather was comfortable, cleanliness and great air all around. We will definitely come again.

A magnificent and picturesque place. The most beautiful view of the mountains.
The road from the city is good.
The huge territory of the complex.
You can take the lifts to the mountains and take a walk there. You can also ride horses on the territory, test yourself on the rope complex, bungee ride, and go skiing in winter.
Prices for accommodation, services and cuisine are high. The current prices can be found on the website.
What surprised me was the prices for car Parking...5000 tenge. There are no such prices anywhere in Almaty.

A chic place for privacy or an event to organize. Food, accommodation, atmosphere, nature, staff - at the highest level! I did not expect such a level with adequate prices in Kazakhstan, to be honest.
There is no air conditioning in the rooms. I hope the mountain air will save you from the heat in summer. I was in May. It was ok. The yurt is big - incomparable! Treehouses are for fun, but it's better to live in cottages. If we have the opportunity, we will definitely check something else here.

My family and I visit your resort regularly, and we have always been satisfied with the quality of service. However, our visit on January 8th was disappointing. The tracks were not paved, which made skiing much more difficult. After the first descent, which turned into a walking descent along the highway, we were forced to leave the resort in a bad mood.
I understand that weather conditions or technical issues may affect the preparation of trails, but I would like to see more responsibility for informing visitors. We paid 30,000 tenge for the services and counted on high-quality skating. It would be wise to post information about the condition of the trails on your social networks so that regular visitors can adjust their plans in advance. I hope to improve in the future.

The resort is good for skiing, there are many trails for beginners and experienced riders. The disadvantage of a summer vacation. The child was bungee riding, severely injured her neck, because there is no stopper when stopping. Accommodation for three people. The information on the mode of operation of activities in the autumn time on the site did not correspond

If we talk about the nature of the place, then yes, we admired and enjoyed it, but it's only for an hour every day ...
There is practically no occupation for younger children: the playground (paid), the master class is paid separately....and in fact, it took 15 minutes to wrap a bear with a thread....
The play area in the tent....but this is for 10 children, then the crush will begin there, while it's cold there, especially where the main part of the toys, not the slide.
Outside, the playground was not cleared, as it snowed and froze a little. The ticket was sold, but the child has nowhere to play: you will not sit on the ice swing, you will not jump on the snow butterflies...they started cleaning only after I said that everything was not cleaned and dangerous....
The rope park (although there are two of them), but the daughter with a height of 122 cm could not be anywhere ...
The food was delicious, but we were practically only in a Georgian restaurant, and a couple of times in a European, national and We didn't get there because there were always conferences there.... Or they came to have lunch, and they told us: "the restaurant will close for the event in an hour."...you see, yes, as we dined in puffs...
the room was clean, cleaned every day.
The receptionists at the reception....I'd rather keep quiet....They told me to come to check-in at 14:00....and as a result, we also sat until 15:00 with the children around them....creating noise and baby crying for them.
Maybe, of course, it's more fun in winter, but again in the warmer months.....

I love this ski trip on weekdays! Variable trails for both beginners and more experienced snowboarders. There is a parking lot, a cafe with delicious cuisine, and most importantly a children's ski school, where you can bring your child for 3 hours while you ride yourself. They give him all the equipment, teach him to ski, then ride cheesecakes, then entertain him in warm yurts. For families with children, the best resort in Almaty!)

The place is super! Beauty, variety of entertainment. With children, that's what you need. but!!! The resort will be great if it is customer-oriented, while the service is only at the restaurant level. Well, on the lifts, and not all of them. In 3-5 years it will be at the same level, I hope. So we are waiting for the shareholders to receive the feedback.

A gorgeous place, in terms of nature. The service is also on the level. The food in the restaurants is very tasty.
And now about the room: it's a nightmare. 10 square meters maximum. A very small shower cabin. And most importantly, we took a separate room, the so-called treehouse, with a veranda. But, as it turned out, access to this veranda is open to everyone. And these people will look into your windows, as happened with us.

Positive:
They take care of nature, cleanliness is everywhere, there are sanitary zones everywhere. This is a more real development of tourism.
Lots of entertainment.
The men on the cable car are very friendly and the women in the shops are polite.
Minuses:
The houses are super expensive, from 75 thousand ...
Breakfast was moved to the yurt. We went overnight just for the sake of a magical morning and breakfast on the summer terrace of the restaurant with a beautiful view of the coniferous mountains, but that's it. It's sad!
Breakfast is very cheap, as in 2-3 star hotels. At breakfast, the juice is of terrible cheap quality, it is impossible to drink. The assortment of sweets is meager.

We lived in a tree house, the room is clean, very warm), beautiful location, cool terrace, good service but not everywhere, for example, when leaving the territory, we were told that you have 15 minutes for free check-out, if you do not have time, you will have to go to the reception so that we can do free check-out again, on departure there was a big traffic jam, the barrier did not work and we did not have time, there was no way to turn around, we had to run there on foot, in general everything is cool

A picturesque place with mountains, trees, and a river! There are separate cottages for rent. And several funiculars. There are viewing platforms at the peak and it is possible to ride a three-way down or bungee. Adrenaline rush! You can also ride an electric bike and shoot on the Paintball field. You can go on a walking trip and ride horses. There is a parking lot for cars and a city bus route, 210 in my opinion. There are several restaurants on the menu with national and European dishes. A place to relax that will give a lot of positive impressions!

A good place to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the city. We rented a treehouse. In the morning we saw a lot of squirrels who were looking for what people had left for them to eat. It is advisable to leave them unpeeled hazelnuts. My daughter was very interested in watching them. I also liked the quality of the dishes in the Georgian restaurant.

We have been going to the Forest Fairy Tale from time to time for so many years, but our last visit greatly spoiled the mood, I ask the administration to pay attention to this review. 05.01.2025 (working day) we decided to go riding moonbikes and balloons with the children. On the way to Lesnaya Skazka, they called the call center and clarified: 1) where exactly is the moon bike rental, 2) is it possible to ride an adult + a child on the same bike, 3) is it possible to book in advance, 4) does the balloon rental work. To which we received the following information from the administrator (or whoever is answering the phone): 1)located in equestrian center 2)adult+child 3 is allowed)you can not book in advance, only at the checkout on a first-come, first-served basis 4) the balloon route is closed for some reason. Okay, let's go at least for the moonbikes. Then complete nonsense begins: upon arrival at the equestrian center, the guard at the barrier assures that the moonbikes are not here, but where the ski rental is, you need to go there. Okay, we went down, drove into the parking lot, went to the cash register - they say at the cash register - what are you, moonbikes at the equestrian center. We go up to the equestrian center again, we pass by the guard at the checkout, they say that the moonbikes are here, but they are all booked online (we called to clarify about the reservation) and children are not allowed (we also clarified this issue). As a result: the absolute incompetence of the staff, 2 hours of wasted time and minus 1,500 for parking
