Lakes Dunino and Golodnye Voronki are mud-brine lakes – they contain both brine (healing brine) and therapeutic mud. The salt composition of the lakes is almost identical, with a salt concentration of approximately 165 g/l. The lakes differ in age, size, and depth.
Dunino
Lake Dunino was formed in 1896. Its area is 9 hectares, its depth is 3-4 meters, and the water warms up to 29 degrees Celsius in summer. Due to the high salinity, the only animal inhabiting the lake is the reddish crustacean Artemia salina. It is these that pink flamingos feed on, which is what gives the feathers of these birds their characteristic beautiful color.
Female crustaceans produce offspring three times per season, giving the lake's water a reddish tint. The crustacean bodies that settle to the bottom mix with the silt, adding beneficial properties. The water contains a large amount of bromine, which is why the lake is also called Bromine Lake.
Healing properties of water and mud:
- They have a general health-improving effect.
- They have a sedative effect.
- They help relieve stress and reduce anxiety.
- They strengthen the immune and nervous systems.
- They promote skin rejuvenation and health.
- They help with musculoskeletal disorders.
Golodnye Voronki
Lake GolodnyeVoronki is small and shallow, less than a meter deep. The reservoir formed relatively recently, and the process of mud formation is only just beginning. Experts call this mud "immature," which, however, does not diminish its healing properties – it has a pain-relieving effect and helps with skin, joint, and genital ailments.
The healing properties of the water are almost identical to those of Lake Dunino.
It's worth remembering that treatments using therapeutic waters and mud must be strictly dosed. Experts recommend staying in the water for no longer than 20 minutes and no more than twice a day.
It's best to start exploring the Sol-Iletsk lakes with the less salty Bolshoy and Maloye Gorodskie Lakes. We also invite you to visit Tuzluchnoye – the oldest, and Razval – the largest and saltiest of the Sol-Iletsk lakes.
