Itinerary description

Ruta desde la aldea de Saty hasta el lago Kaindy en Kazajistán. Es un lago de 400 metros de largo con una profundidad máxima de 30 m y a 2.000 metros sobre el nivel del mar.
El lago fue creado como resultado de un enorme derrumbe de caliza, provocado por el terremoto de 1911 en Chon-Kemin. Troncos sumergidos de los árboles secos de Picea schrenkiana se elevan sobre la superficie.



From Saty village to lake Kandy. Lake Kaindy (Kazakh: Қайыңды көлі, Qayıñdı köli), meaning the "falling rocks/landslide lake"-- is a 400-meter-long (1,300 ft) lake in Kazakhstan that reaches depths near 30 meters (98 ft) in some areas. It is located 129 kilometers (80 mi) east-southeast of the city of Almaty and is 2,000 meters (6,600 ft) above sea level.

The lake was created as the result of an enormous limestone landslide, triggered by the 1911 Kebin earthquake.[1] The track to Lake Kaindy has many scenic views to the Saty Gorge, the Chilik Valley, and the Kaindy Gorge. Dried-out trunks of submerged Picea schrenkiana trees rise above the surface. (Wikipedia)
