Pearls of the Kurgan
In the Trans-Urals there is a little-known Lake Gorkoe, it is unusually s alty and similar in its characteristics to the Dead Sea, that is, it is impossible to drown in its water, and its mud is used to improve the body. The village located next to it is called Kurort, but, unfortunately, in fact, the village is not a resort, since the infrastructure around the lake is not developed and there are no suitable living conditions. You can rent a corner from a local resident with outdoor facilities or come with a tent. However, this is not the onlythe problem of the village, there is still a huge number of annoying insects that will not give rest to the tourist day or night.
