The water in the lake is cold, but if desired, you can swim in the lake in July and August. There is no infrastructure for recreation on the lake, I am traveling to the lake be prepared for full autonomy, you need to take with you all the necessary equipment for overnight accommodation, tents, sleeping bags, etc., it is also better to go here by 4x4 jeeps, since there are no paved roads here.
