Lake Issyk

Lake Issyk was formed about 8-10 thousand years ago as a result of a powerful mountain landslide that blocked the river and created a natural dam. Since then, it has become one of the most picturesque high-mountain lakes of the Zailiyskiy Alatau. In 1963, the lake was partially destroyed by a mudflow, but was later restored. Today, Issyk pleases guests with its turquoise water and breathtaking views.
