Golubye Ozera

This reserve contains wooded and swampy territories, as well as an arrangement of three unconnected lakes. The bottom of the reservoirs is covered with a layer of salty, blue-coloured mud, which gave these lakes its name: Golubye Ozera ("Blue Lakes" in Russian). The water temperature here at any time of the year is around 4-6° C. The reservoirs feed solely from underground sources. When you look at the clear water, it seems that the lake is very shallow, but do not be fooled - the depth of the lake is about 3 metres, and in places with sinkholes or cenotes, it can get up to 6-18 metres deep. People come here to enjoy the great outdoors in all its glory, workout in the fresh air or even go diving.
