Lake Turgoyak is the deepest in the Urals . Its maximum depth is nineteen meters. And yet - this is the most beautiful place in the Chelyabinsk region. The waters of the lake are very clean and transparent, while quite cold. So bathing here even in hot weather does not like everyone.
There is a lake near the village of the same name. And if earlier residents of the village earned a living by mining coal and wood, today it is a purely resort area, and the main income is the income from tourists. Especially for them for 40 km around the lake are equipped with all kinds of tourist bases, sanatoria, hotels, rest homes. And yet many prefer to rest on the lake Turgoyak in tents, so to speak, "savages."
Lake Turgoyak, Chelyabinsk region - recreation by savages
Wild rest on Lake Turgoyak is represented by inexpensive places under the tents. Tourists are attracted here fishing, beauty of nature, the opportunity to have a wonderful rest with the whole family.
Fishermen especially love this lake, because in its transparent waters there are perch, pike, ruff, ide, burbot. They are perfectly visible to the naked eye, which makes fishing even more fascinating.
In addition to fishing, there is something to do. For example, to see the islands, of which there are as many as six. On the largest of them - the island of St.Very, you can see the archaeological reserve with the oldest monuments of the Stone Age, visit the cave that was once the refuge of Ataman Pinaev. You can not put tents here, nor can you build fires.
The lake itself and the whole area around it is an ecologically protected area, so unauthorized wild rest is prohibited here. With tents can only be in specially designated places for this.
There are very few beaches on the lake, when it comes to an even sandy area - there are very few of them here. Basically, the shore of the lake is rocky slopes, stony banks. Well, if near your parking lot there is an equipped descent in the form of a wooden staircase. In some places there are convenient pontoons (platforms). Sandy beaches are located in the territories of sanatoriums and recreation centers.
However, this circumstance does not detract from the impressions of wild rest - the views from the high rocky coasts are simply amazing. It is beautiful at any time of the day: in the early morning the milk mist is spreading along the water, with the rising of the sun, the sky and water acquire an incredibly beautiful blue hue, in the daytime the bright sun illuminates the whole panorama, in the evening it is impossible to admire the sunset, and at night you will be greeted by the bright lights of the local recreation centers.
