Rest on Chelyabinsk lakes: prices, reviews, bases and rest "savage"

Rest on Chelyabinsk lakes is still difficult to attribute to the main tourist destinations of domestic tourism. Nevertheless, the prospects for development of regional tourism are very good. Recreational potential of the nature of the Southern Urals is quite high, and the Administration of the Chelyabinsk region has done a lot in recent years for its successful implementation. Recreation bases on Chelyabinsk lakes annually receive a lot of guests, new modern tourist infrastructure facilities are being built and designed.

About alternative tourist destinations

It is customary to wait for summer holidays with impatience. For many, it is not conceivable without air travel in the direction of beach resorts and associated financial costs. Only there is no extra money for anyone. And, unfortunately, not everyone knows yet about alternative directions of summer travel, one of the options of which can be rest on Chelyabinsk lakes. A visit to the South Urals can become not only a source of new bright tourist impressions, but also a significant saving for the family budget. Naturally, for a visit to this region of the Russian Federation, it will not be necessary to issue visas: neither Schengen, nor any other. And the expressiveness of the nature of the Southern Urals is worthy of competing with mountain Switzerland, with Saxony, and with the Pyrenees.

In the Southern Urals

Despite the numerous anecdotes from the Internet about the severity of Chelyabinsk manners, the climate in the Southern Urals is quite familiar to the average person. This means that rest on the Chelyabinsk lakes does not require a period of acclimatization. In the summer in the south of the Ural region it is even warmer than in the middle zone of Russia. Chelyabinsk lakes, as a rule, are located in the basins between mountain slopes covered with mixed coniferous-deciduous forests. The foothills of the Urals are very picturesque and expressive at any time of the year, but it is best to rest in this region all the same in the summer. The service infrastructure for the servicing of tourists is not properly equipped yet, but for many it is "a savage rest" that is attractive. In Chelyabinsk lakes, there is more than enough for this.

What to look for

As is known, the Southern Urals is a region with a developed heavy industry, which can not but affect negatively the state of the environment. This circumstance should be taken into account when planning a holiday on Chelyabinsk lakes. The feedback of those who have already visited the South Urals will help to make correct plans for vacation and correct them if necessary, if convincing arguments are presented to your attention.

Rest on Chelyabinsk lakes offers a wide choice of routes and options. It should be noted that the eastern foothills of the Ural Ridge, where the main tourist attractions are located, are separated from industrial facilities by considerable geographical distances. This contributes to the ecological well-being in these territories. And, of course, we should not forget that the welfare of nature depends not only on the availability of industrial enterprises, so we should adhere to the principle: in the forest and the pond, everything should remain the same as it was before your appearance.

In accordance with individual preferences

Organized rest on the lakes of the Chelyabinsk region is quite accessible to an ordinary tourist by price parameters and pleasantly surprises with the possibility of choosing from a variety of options. There are a lot of tourist bases in the region, some of them take guests even throughout the winter season, temporarily re-profiling into ski centers. And one of the most important moments that makes potential tourists choose a holiday on Chelyabinsk lakes is prices. They are pleasantly pleased with their accessibility. The prevailing segment of the temporary shelter handed over to tourists by price criteria should be attributed to the economy class. But this does not mean that there are no more expensive apartments on the coast of the Ural lakes. They can also be used at a price that is much lower than in other tourist regions.

For the main category of tourists, the so-called "wild rest" is attractive. On the Chelyabinsk lakes there is everything for it (except for a few specially protected areas where the entry for "savages" is limited). But you should be prepared for the fact that in some places you may be required to pay for the opportunity to drive ashore on your own transport. Everyone is free to choose a style of rest in accordance with their individual preferences.

Lake Turgoyak

This unique reservoir is often called "the younger brother of Lake Baikal." Since the maximum mark of its depth reaches 40 m, it, certainly, can not compete with it.

Lake Itkul

In the north of the Chelyabinsk region is such a popular tourist site, as Lake Itkul. This hydrological monument of the Ural nature differs from other Chelyabinsk lakes by the fact that the water in it is cold even in the height of the summer season. This is due to the action of cold key sources at the bottom of the reservoir. Therefore, only those who are accustomed to low temperatures can rely on bathing in Lake Itkul.

The most famous tourist site on Itkul is the so-called Shaitan-Kamen. This bizarre geological formation is located not far from the southeastern shore of the reservoir. Shaitan-Stone in ancient times was a cult place for people inhabiting the Urals. Here shamanistic rituals and sacrifices were performed.
