Visitors are provided with hot and cold plunge pools, showers, changing rooms, and a sports ground. Admission to the spring is free. 🌊 The gorge is home to two picturesque waterfalls. The Lower Falls reaches a height of approximately 5 meters, while the Upper Falls consists of three cascades with a total height of approximately 20 meters. The path to them offers beautiful views of the pine forest, mountain slopes, and the Gorelnik River. 🦅 We will also ascend to the "Eagle's Nest" observation deck, which offers one of the best panoramas of the Gorelnik Gorge and the surrounding peaks of the Trans-Ili Alatau. 📖 A little history: Gorelnik Gorge received its name from a major forest fire that occurred here in the 19th century. Afterward, part of the pine forest was destroyed, and the area became known as Gorelnik. Today, nature has fully recovered, and the gorge is considered one of the most beautiful places for hiking, trekking, and recreation in the Almaty region. 🥾 If you're looking for things to do in Almaty, interested in mountain hiking, trekking, weekend itineraries, want to see a thermal spring, waterfalls, the beautiful mountain landscapes of Kazakhstan, or discover new tourist routes, this video will be a great guide. 👍 If you found this video helpful, please support the channel with a like, subscribe, and tell us in the comments which place in Gorelnik you liked the most.
