Overview
Tourists walk to the first Kolsay Lake on a paved path. The second lake (Mynzhylgy) is 1 km long and sits higher up — with no roads at all. You take horse trails blocked by giant fallen spruces and cross clear, icy trout streams. The electric motors get tested by the water crossings. It's remote and wild. You can camp by the second lake overnight. That's when you feel how far from everything you are — no sound except the water and wind.

"Second Kolsay Lake is even more beautiful than the first. The trail between them is technical but the emerald water is unforgettable."
Аскар Р."Worth the long drive from Almaty! The second lake is pristine and surrounded by ancient spruce forests. Advanced trail but manageable."
