Oleshkovsky Sands

In the summer, 161,200 hectares of hot sand will meet you here. This place is also called Oleshkovskaya desert. If earlier there was steppe vegetation here, then in the 19th century a mass of sheep were brought here, which destroyed almost the entire flora and turned the steppe into a desert. In summer, the sand heats up to 75 degrees Celsius, and the wind sand storms often occur here. Despite this, the Oleshkovsku sands are recommended to be visited in order to enjoy the amazing nature of the country.
