How to behave in a pond?

In order for your vacation to bring only positive emotions, you must follow a number of simple rules.

1. Swimming is allowed only in permitted areas. This way you can be sure that the bottom has been carefully checked and cleaned, and that there are no dangerous microbes in the water.
2. Don't go deeper than your waist in water if you don't know how to swim. It is also not recommended to swim behind buoys or special fences.
3. Remember that cold water can cause cramps. Therefore, you need to go into it slowly. The water temperature should not be lower than 1719 ºС, and you can swim for no longer than 20 minutes.
4. Do not enter the water after prolonged exposure to the sun. With a sharp temperature drop, a reflex contraction of the muscles can occur, which is fraught with dangerous consequences.
5. Do not swim while intoxicated.
6. Do not dive into the water in unprepared places, such as from a cliff, pier or boats.
7. Do not swim close to the ship or boat: you may be pulled under its bottom or overwhelmed by a high wave.
8. Do not use air mattresses and cameras if you do not know how to swim.

Be careful and careful when you relax by the water, and then summer weekends will give you only pleasant emotions and a charge of vivacity for a long time.

  • Firstly, the water in them circulates in a vicious circle.

Black Lake (Zelenograd) is one of the few places in Moscow that is suitable for swimming. This unique reservoir is located in the 6th microdistrict of Moscow - Zelenograd. The coastline of the lake is surrounded by forest plantations. This gives the local area a special comfort. Vacationers feel comfortable in the bosom of virgin nature.

Although Zelenograd belongs to the administrative unit of Moscow, you can get to it only by driving through the entire Moscow region, outside the ring road. To get to it is necessary to move away from Moscow by 37 km to the north-west.

Brief description of Black Lake (Zelenograd)

Black Lake is often referred to as a "natural oasis" in a dusty urban city. Approaching closer to this territory, you really don’t believe that Moscow is not far from here. Zelenograd is the most landscaped district. This is evidenced by its name and, of course, the local nature. Green forest plantations, streams, rivers and other water bodies are found everywhere here.

Lake Black is of artificial origin. Earlier, in the first half of the 20th century, there was a peat quarry in these places. And the surrounding areas were swampy. Now the beautiful Black Lake (Zelenograd) is located here. Photos of this reservoir reveal all the charm of picturesque landscapes.

The reservoir has a peat bottom, because the waters are saturated with peat decomposition. That is why it has a dark color. The people behind the lake got a name - Black, which is now considered its official name. The reservoir is quite large, the area of ​​the water "mirror" is 3 hectares.

Peculiarities

Many are frightened by the fact that Black Lake (Zelenograd) has peat deposits at the bottom. However, despite this, it is recognized as favorable for swimming. This is evidenced by numerous studies of waters that have been carried out in recent years. The water is also home to a lot of fish.

The beach is sandy, but its territory is small. Sand was specially brought to the places intended for swimming. The main reason for this decision was that initially the entire coastline consisted of viscous silt. Even today you can find places that are more like a swamp. There is no railcar there, but it is not recommended to go far from the lake on your own. In the forest, special routes are marked - walking paths.

What awaits vacationers on the lake?

The beach on the Black Lake is equipped according to all the rules. There are playgrounds for children and sports grounds, changing cabins, picnic areas. It is also very pleasant that the reservoir is surrounded by a beautiful picturesque forest. The surrounding area is a great place for a family day trip.

When planning your vacation, you need to remember that infrastructure is poorly developed in these places. There are no cafes, no entertainment, no other benefits of civilization, but this is what attracts Muscovites here. Black Lake (Zelenograd) will allow vacationers to forget about the bustle of the city for a long time and fully enjoy the virgin nature.

It is crowded here at any time of the year. In summer, people come here to swim and hide from the heat. In autumn and spring, there are many vacationers who have picnics. But in winter people come here to plunge into the ice hole.

Lifeguards are constantly on duty at the lake. Entrance to the territory of the Black Lake is free. Because of this, there are always a lot of visitors here, especially on weekends and holidays.

Fishing

The lake is a favorite place for lovers of quiet fishing. Here, crucians, pikes, perches and gobies (rotans) are found in small numbers. Fishermen come here throughout the year, and the lake is especially popular for winter fishing.

Black Lake (Zelenograd): how to get there?

You can get to Black Lake by metro to the Rechnoy Vokzal stop, and then go by bus number 400 - the first stop after entering Zelenograd.

The heat has come. Finally, you can grab your swimwear, flip-flops, sunblock, armlets and panama hats and rush to the beach with your children. We found out where swimming with children would be the safest, and compiled an overview of children's places for a beach holiday.

Officially, this year in Moscow you can swim in 11 recreation areas, and safety will be monitored by drones and volunteer cynologists with specially trained Newfoundland, Labrador Retriever, Leonberger and Golden Retriever dogs. Rescue dogs can be recognized by their bright orange vests equipped with a special handle that a drowning person can grab onto so that the dog pulls him to land.
