Medvezhiy waterfall in Kazakhstan. Bear waterfall in Turgen Gorge. Turgenskiy Medvezhiy Waterfall. Total height 28 meters Watercourse cubic meters


Local legend has it that, at one time, an elderly couple lived in these gorges, raised their children, and lived alone. Once, the head of the family, already an old man, went to the forest for firewood. He did not return, and his wife went in search of him. On the way, she met a young Dzhigit, whom she asked if he had seen her partner. In response, the young man asked with a laugh: "do You not recognize your spouse?". The startled old woman could not utter a word. He took her to the spring, where she sipped the water and turned into a beautiful young woman. Since then, people began to call the spring Molodilny and, going to the gorge, fill containers to take water home.
