This is a great place for swimming at any time of the year. The first steps barefoot on the snow and then diving into the hot water in the winter give special impression.

Near the Enilchek village, you can find petroglyphs (1-2 thousand BC). There is a unique place in the Sary-Jaz – thermal springs Kara-Tash. Radon hot water flows under high black rock. The width of the spring is about 6 m, the length is 50 m, and the depth up to 1.7m.

This is an ideal place for people interested in unique and fabulous places. The site is located at 150 km away from the Karakol. Along the way, you can see alpine river Sary-Jaz, abandoned village Enilchek and incredibly beautiful mountain scenery and frozen mountain rivers.

Enilchek is a dead village of an ore-dressing and processing enterprise. There was supposed to live and work a half thousand people. There was designed and almost built houses, school, hospital and so much more, up to the airstrip for light aircraft.

Recommended equipment: swimming suit, slippers.

In the upper reaches of the river Sary-Jaz near to a variegated marble rock Kara-Ala-Tash there are thermal springs where the water temperature is around 60 degrees.
