Tourist Information
The Aydarkhan Reservoir is quite large: 21 kilometers long, 1–9 meters deep, and 4.5 kilometers wide. When the spring floods begin and the rivers become overflowing, the Aydarkhan Reservoir holds back the turbulent river flow. Water also flows into the Aydarkhan Reservoir from the Volga River via the Saratav Canal. Water from the reservoir is used for irrigation.
