The snow-covered landscape of the national park created a breathtaking winter wonderland. Although the Big Almaty was inaccessible, the park itself offered a serene beauty with snow-laden trees, frozen lakes, and pristine trails. The quietude of the snow-covered scenery added a unique charm, making it a memorable and picturesque experience despite the travel limitations.

We visited the Big almaty lake, and I must say it is a must visit spot if you're in almaty, turquoise blue water surrounded by huge mountains with little snow was a true treat to my eyes

Территория парка занимает центральную часть Заилийского Алатау с очень сложным рельефом. Из-под горных долин видно, что от главного водораздельного хребта отходит много островершинных гребней второго порядка, разделяющих основные речные бассейны. Последние гребни ветвятся и создают систему отрогов более мелких порядков. Такое морфологическое строение определяет направление главных рек, стекающих с северного склона. Они относятся к бассейну р. Или. Однако большинство из них, выйдя на равнину, вскоре теряются в наносах, причём основная часть стока расходуется человеком на коммунальные, технические и сельскохозяйственные нужды.

Климат Климат в национальном парке разнообразен и дифференцирован по высотным климатическим поясам. Лето тёплое, зима мягкая из-за резко выраженной инверсии температуры воздуха. В предгорьях средняя температура января −7,4°С, июля +23°С, продолжительность безморозного периода составляет 181 день, в год выпадает 560 мм осадков. В Малоалматинском ущелье (урочище Медеу) на высоте 1530 м температура января −4,3°С, июля +18,1°С, продолжительность безморозного периода составляет 145 день, в год выпадает 843 мм осадков. На высоте 3035 м (урочище Мынжилки) в условиях вечных снегов и ледников средняя температура января −11,3°С, июля +7°С, продолжительность безморозного периода составляет 53 дня, в год выпадает 734 мм осадков. В высокогорной части Заилийского Алатау на высоте 3750 м климат суровый, здесь выпадает много осадков — 800—1300 мм, в основном в виде снега. Тёплый период очень короткий — средняя температура воздуха на ледниках летом не превышает +2,8°С. Снег по многолетним наблюдениям в предгорьях (850 м) устанавливается 6 декабря, в среднегорье (1200—2500 м) — на месяц раньше, в высокогорье (3000 м) — 21 октября. Весной снег сходит на разных высотах и в разные горы с 10 марта по 22 мая. Число дней со снежным покровом на разных высотах варьируется от 111 до 236. Высота снежного покрова в предгорьях около 30 см, в среднегорье и высокогорье может достигать 100 см. Заилийский Алатау встаёт высоким передовым барьером на пути северных и северо-западных влагонесущих воздушных масс, которые свободно проникают по основным долинам вглубь гор, обуславливая чёткую дифференциацию природных ландшафтов на высоте. Территория парка охватывает низкогорные, среднегорные и высокогорные ландшафты, которые отражают ярусное строение гор.

Рельеф расположен в интервале высот от 600 до 4540 м над уровнем моря. Самая высокая вершина — пик Конституции (4540 м), вторая по величине — пик 25 лет Казахстана (4494 м). Ещё несколько десятков вершин превышают...

Approximately an hour out of Almaty. The road flows through suburbia and starts to get bumpy with potholes as you enter the national park. Cost was negotiated at the entrance by a local but other posters have reported 400 kzt. The road is winding and narrow. Traffic really picked up around 11am when minibuses started arriving. Public buses go to a certain point then head back to town. After that you have to work it out yourself or walk...saw plenty of walkers. Very small space for parking above the big Almaty lake.. perhaps 10 cars. Stunning scenery, fresh air and also the chance to dress up like a Kazakh and hold an eagle. You can walk down to the lakes edge. Fairly steep on a simple dirt track. Go early. You'll find the beauty and the silence of this place much more enjoyable with...
