The Kolsay Lakes, a trio of alpine lakes in the Tian Shan mountains, are a breathtaking spectacle. The crystal-clear waters, surrounded by lush forests and towering peaks, create a serene and peaceful atmosphere. Hiking through the scenic trails, I felt connected to nature's splendor. The lakes' tranquility, picturesque surroundings, and abundant wildlife make them a perfect destination for nature lovers, photographers, and those seeking relaxation. Kolsay Lakes are a hidden gem in Kazakhstan's stunning landscape, leaving me with unforgettable memories.

This is not Switzerland, but the mountains and rivers depend on each other, which is particularly healing, and the most important thing is cheap
Kolsai Lake is known as the 'Pearl on the Tianshan Mountains'. Coming here is really like coming to Switzerland. The Kolsai Lake Group is located in the Kolsai National Park in the northern part of the Tianshan Mountains. There are 3 lakes with altitudes of 1800-2800 meters. The surrounding forests are shady, the clouds are lingering, and the lake water will change color under the sunlight: from light blue to rich emerald green... It is really worthy of nature's palette.
After identification, the lake water under the big sun is still icy. I was surprised that no one was swimming in the lake.

The first lake is easily accessible, while the second and third require a bit of hiking, rewarding adventurers with pristine beauty. Rich biodiversity, including diverse flora and fauna, enhances the allure of the region. Kolsai Lakes offer a serene escape for nature enthusiasts, with opportunities for trekking, camping, and absorbing the tranquil ambiance of this unspoiled natural gem.
