Hiking

from my apartment pin 📍Ayusai i started my walk there. But the starting point of almaty lake is edelweiss. So i walked extra 2km from the starting point.

Before entering ayusai there's an entrance even if my yandex talked to the guards. I paid 1000 tenge. If your driver is kind enough to push to drive you to edelweiss why not.
