A very atmospheric place, a picturesque rock covered with legends and tales. There are many places nearby that are worth visiting - the peaks of Kokshetau, Three Sisters, Okzhetpes, Bolektau. There is a very rich and diverse nature and fauna here. In general, I recommend Borovoye to everyone - one of the pearls of Kazakhstan, no other way!
An interesting place, you can get there by catamaran, boats with oars, with a motor. There is a mixed forest around, low mountains, and a fairly spacious beach on the other side of the lake. There are a lot of people in the season. However, the season is short, 2-3 months, then it gets cool.
It's cool and unusual to get pictures, as you don't pose everywhere against the background of water. There are many ways to get there: by boat on catamarans, if you want to rent a transport yourself, but if you want they can take you away, wait and bring you back.
