Rent a holiday apartment in North Kazakhstan – landscapes, lakes and Petropavl

North Kazakhstan combines forest steppe, steppe, gently rolling landscapes and a distinctive lake region. If you would like to rent a holiday apartment in North Kazakhstan, first decide whether your trip should focus primarily on the natural environment or on Petropavl.

Key facts

• Region: North Kazakhstan is a region of Kazakhstan.
• Landscape: The region lies on the southern edge of the West Siberian Plain; it includes gently rolling hills, forest steppe and steppe.
• Lakes: North Kazakhstan is known for more than 1,000 lakes, including Shaglyteniz, North and South Kak, Akush, Tarankol and Stanovoye.
• Petropavl: The city is the capital of North Kazakhstan and lies on the Ishim River near the Russian border.

Landscape as a regional focus

The different types of landscape make North Kazakhstan easy to understand as a broad-based travel destination. When looking for accommodation, you can therefore consider the region according to your preferred focus rather than assuming a single holiday resort. The lakes mentioned – including Shaglyteniz, North and South Kak, Akush, Tarankol and Stanovoye – give the landscape specific names.

Petropavl and the cultural-historical perspective

Petropavl lies on the Ishim and near the Russian border. If Petropavl is the focus of your trip, you can search specifically for accommodation in this regional point of reference.

The regional history of North Kazakhstan also includes German and Polish population groups. A cultural-historical perspective thus complements the exploration of the landscape and lakes.
