点评:We visited two viewpoints in mid-September on the second day of our 5-day Mangistau tour.
We drove from the yurt camp Ethno Aul Kogez (44.227882, 52.056419) on an asphalt road (with a stop at a red massif, Krasnyy Kan'on (44.160648, 52.410603)) 62km to a turnoff (44.0986, 53.131337).
After 7km on a dirt road, we had a view of the Sor Tuzbair salt flat from a viewpoint (44.046921, 53.159111) as it started to rain. From a second viewpoint (44.037731, 53.15773), over 1km away, the view was even more impressive despite the rain.
Afterward, 500m further, we visited a spot (44.03774, 53.15472) with a view of a rock formation. The three stops together took a half hour. That half hour with light to moderate rain was enough to turn the dirt road into a slippery slope where the 4-wheel drive slipped repeatedly. Since it was a flat landscape, it was not really dangerous. Due to the impassable roads, we could not visit the salt flat. An hour later, we were back in Ethno Aul Kogez with dry wether.
That afternoon, we visited some places without having to drive on dirt roads. The visit to the Karynzharyk Depression the next day was canceled. The visit to the Bozzhyra Valley was also problematic (we could only reach the surroundings, with views, but couldn't enter the valley itself). Also, Bokty Mountain on day 5 was inaccessible.
Actually, Mangistau is not suitable for tourism. In the summer, it is too hot (no shade!), and in winter, it is too cold. In between, even a bit of rain can spoil the visit for multiple days, even with less as 2 hours of light to moderate rain.
翻译:九月中旬,在曼吉斯托五天之旅的第二天,我们参观了两个景点。
我们从蒙古包营地 Ethno Aul Kogez (44.227882, 52.056419) 出发,沿着柏油路行驶(在红色地块 Krasnyy Kan'on (44.160648, 52.410603) 停下),行驶 62 公里到达岔路 (44.0986, 53.131337)。
在土路上走了 7 公里后,我们从观景点(44.046921、53.159111)看到了 Sor Tuzbair 盐滩,当时开始下雨了。从距离超过 1 公里的第二个观景点(44.037731、53.15773)来看,尽管下着雨,景色仍然更加令人印象深刻。
之后,又走了500m,来到了可以看到岩层的地点(44.03774, 53.15472)。三站加起来花了半个小时。半个小时的小雨和中雨足以让土路变成湿滑的斜坡,四轮驱动车反复打滑。由于地势平坦,所以并不危险。由于道路不通,我们无法参观盐滩。一小时后,我们带着干燥的天气回到了 Ethno Aul Kogez。
那天下午,我们不用开车走土路就参观了一些地方。第二天对卡林扎里克凹陷的访问被取消。参观博兹拉山谷也有问题(我们只能到达周围,欣赏风景,但无法进入山谷本身)。此外,第五天的博克蒂山也无法进入。
事实上,曼吉斯托并不适合旅游。夏天太热(没有遮荫!),冬天太冷。在此期间,即使是小雨也会影响多日的游览,即使是少于 2 小时的小雨到中雨。
