Buzunbai Gorge and Karakul Lake -
Buzunbai gorge is one of the little-known sights of the Almaty region. The picturesque gorge is located in a beautiful mountainous area far from the city of Almaty. It will take you at least two days to travel here, as you need to spend at least one night here. In the gorge you will meet nomads with their herds of horses, cows and sheep.

Tourist Information
Traveling to this gorge along the way, we will visit the beautiful lake Tuzkol, which is also on our way in the Almaty region. The journey exceeds 500 kilometers, as well as the road passes through mountainous terrain, so calculate your travel time. We recommend traveling in this region by 4x4 vehicles (highly passable vehicles, jeeps).
The area is very picturesque, and you can travel here during the summer, July and August. Be prepared for sudden weather changes, so be prepared for that. In the upper reaches of the Buzunbai gorge there is a beautiful Karakul lake, which you can go to on foot (hiking, trekking). There is a mountain trail around the lake where you can walk around the lake.
