Midsummer in Altyn-Emel can be too hot for unprepared tourists. Tourist attractions, such as the Singing Dune, the volcanic Katutau mountains and the cretaceous Aktau mountains, are located in the desert part of the park. There is no shade and no place to hide from the scorching sun. The Singing Dune is located on the bank of the Ili river, but the passage to the water is prohibited. The Aktau mountains do not have any water sources either.
If you decide to visit the park in the summer, please take care of appropriate outfit and sufficient drinking water.
