Burabay National Park (Borovoe), including Ablai Khan Meadow, Khan’s Pass, Mount Bolektau

Nicknamed the “Pearl of Kazakhstan” and “Kazakh Switzerland”, it’s easy to see that Burabay National Park in northern Kazakhstan is adored by locals and viewed as nothing less than a national treasure, and with good reason. Also called Borovoe, this recreational pearl of the steppe is a fantastic mountainous area filled with swaths of alpine woods, fourteen crystal blue lakes and mystical wonders in the form of multiple unusual rock formations.
Burabay National Park Day Tour is a relaxing full-day excursion to Kazakhstan’s pearl of nature that will astound your senses and revitalize your spirit. The tour begins in capital city Astana, from which you’ll be chauffeured in a private vehicle to Burabay National Park to enjoy jaw-dropping scenery of Burabay Mountain and Lake Borovoe, short hikes to Ablai Khan Meadow and Mount Bolektau, and a picnic lunch in the calming environs of exquisite natural beauty.
