The Chelyabinsk region is a land of water. It has almost four thousand lakes, most of which are perfect for fishing and recreation. On the largest are the hostels and holiday homes. But small ones are in cozy beautiful places, they are distinguished by clean water and a rather wide variety of fish species.
Meet Lake Turgoyak
Let's go on a tour of the water wealth of the Urals. It should be noted that almost every lake in the Chelyabinsk region is in close proximity to another. Therefore, resting on one, you can visit another, a couple of hours later, etc. Aydikulsky, Alabuga, Tishsky reservoirs, the Dolgobrodsky reservoir are famous far beyond the region. Vacationers appreciate Turgoyak - the lake of the Chelyabinsk region, located in the national park, pleasing to the eye surprisingly picturesque surroundings. The total area of it is 26 and a half sq. M. Km, depth - 19 m. However, in places the bottom drops low enough - a bit less than 37 m. The value of this resource is obvious. The unique lake of the Chelyabinsk region is primarily due to the fact that it is in second place in terms of water transparency. Near the shore, the water column is scanned to a depth of more than 10 m, and closer to the middle - even up to 17 and a half. The very same water quality is close to the water of Lake Baikal and is the purest natural source. It has a given lake of the Chelyabinsk region and historical archaeological value. Megaliths are located on one of its islands (the island of Vera). There are other traces of sites of prehistoric people.
Traveling on the water edge
In the bulk of the Lake of the Chelyabinsk region, reviews from connoisseurs, tourists and generally lovers of natural nature cause positive. There are good ecological conditions, clean, tasty water, which you can drink even without filtering, valuable varieties of fish freely available for fishing. First of all, it is pike, whitefish, bream, carp and many others. As an example, you can bring the lake of Serebri, declared since 1985 a regional monument of nature. Even more famous and popular is Lake Sladkoe in the Chelyabinsk region. Around it is the Kocherdyk reserve, and the reservoir itself was inscribed in the number of hydrological natural monuments. The water in it is not ordinary, but mineral, healing, at the first sips it seems that it has a sweet taste. Because there are no fish and bird nests here, but there is a therapeutic mud. Tradition says that if you bathe in Sweet or smear your body with muddy mud, you can recover from many serious diseases of the skin and bone system, the musculoskeletal system. Contain water alkali in a high concentration, because things can be washed in them, even without detergents.
Interference of man in the natural environment
Needless to say that these unique corners of nature suffer cruelly from human interference? Chelyabinsk region, alas, is no exception. Enterprises drop their waste in the lake. Tourists litter the pristine places with different garbage. Business predators catch fish stocks, remove curative mud, cut down forests in coastal areas. As you can see, the nature of the Ural region is vulnerable now to the limit. Protect her, people!
