Endless Christmas Trees and Mountains

Visiting Kolsai Lakes National Park in early spring feels like stepping into a quiet, enchanted world still gripped by winter’s hand. Snow blankets the ground in thick, untouched layers, muffling sound and softening the edges of the landscape. The spruce trees rise in perfect rows, each one heavily dusted with snow like endless Christmas trees standing in solemn formation. Towering mountains surround the lakes, their jagged peaks slicing into the pale sky, dramatic and still half-shrouded in mist. The air is sharp and clear, and everything—from the frozen shoreline to the snow-laden branches—glows with a quiet, haunting beauty.
