The village of Zerenda, situated in the Akmola region, has become a popular resort area. The natural beauty of this region rivals that of the well-known resort area of Burabay. However, Zerenda boasts fewer visitors, cleaner lakes, and nature that has largely maintained its pristine appearance. In addition, Zerenda is more affordable.
Why is Zerenda worth visiting?
Zerenda is nestled within the Kokshetau National Park, enveloped by hills, forests, lakes, and rivers. The area’s must-see attractions include Lake Zerenda, Dragon Cave, Ulguli Canyon, Butterfly Museum, and Smolnaya Hill.
Visitors can explore numerous hiking and cycling trails, as well as enjoy horseback riding. The pine forests offer a peaceful retreat, where guests can breathe in the fresh air, forage for mushrooms and berries, and observe wildlife such as wild boars, elks, red deer, roe deer, red foxes, and squirrels.
During the summer months, the lakes in Zerenda attract beachgoers. Locals and tourists also enjoy boating and fishing for perch, crucian carp, pike, roach, and more.
However, the tourist infrastructure in Zerenda may not be as developed as in other areas. But the peaceful ambiance and natural beauty make up for it. Visitors can choose from a range of accommodations, including hotels, guest houses, and rental properties. For those seeking relaxation and rejuvenation, wellness centers offer a retreat all year round. In the winter, Zerenda offers opportunities for skiing, snowboarding, and ice sliding.
