Summer is perfect for travelling but the national park “Zyuratkul” not far from Chelyabinsk is better to be visited in winter. You may see its marvel, the ice fountain, on cold days only.

The forest here is dense and awesome – age-old spruces are growing towards the clear sky. You are reaching the very heart of the Ural mountains and soon come to the foot of the mountain Bolshoi Uvan (1222m) where the fountain is located.

In 1976 geologists drilled a hole here and found a river flowing underground. Later a tube was installed in the hole and a 10 meters high fountain appeared at the mountain Uvan which turns into the ice pillar in winter. It is always different, its contours and size are never the same.
