About this experience
Just three hours away from Astana, you will discover a true gem of the steppes. Burabai is enchanting forests, beautiful mountains, and 14 pristine lakes. It's almost tame squirrels, snow-capped peaks in winter, and blooming meadows in summer. You will admire the nature of the reserve, taste airy baursaks, and have the chance to take photos in the attire of nomads.
