What will the huts for tourists look like in the mountains of Almaty

Rescue huts for tourists in an emergency situation will appear in the mountains of the Almaty region. You will find out how they will look and where they will be located in this article. As noted, these buildings are proposed to be installed at the expense of businessmen as part of social projects. Businessmen will have the right to give their name to the building. Shelters for tourists in the mountains of Almaty will be free of charge. They are equipped with an alarm button, you can not just press the button to call rescuers, but also tell what happened to you. According to the head of the joint project office "Almaty Mountain Cluster" Yerkebulan Khasenov, many options are being discussed now, exactly how these huts will look.

"Mountain huts will be located high in the mountains, where trails, rivers intersect, on passes. Tourists will know where they are. Before going on a hike, they study their location on the map.

If a tourist was caught in some bad weather or got into an extreme situation, for example, he twisted his leg, then knowing where the nearest hut is, he will get to it, " Khasenov said. He noted that inside the hut there will also be a set of firewood to keep warm, food, canned food, a first aid kit so that he can provide himself with first aid and an alarm button with which a tourist can signal to rescuers. When the tourist gives a signal, the information will be processed at the control center and handed over to the rescuers. What will the mountain huts look like The design will take into account international experience. The so-called Alpine huts have long existed in such European countries as Italy, France, Switzerland, Austria.

"We offer entrepreneurs this option: they can develop a sketch themselves, even brand it under their own name, so to speak, perpetuate their name. We have a popular place in the Almaty region - a swing. And many tourists know that they were installed there by Boris Sokolov. So it is here. People will know who built the hut and will be grateful to him. This is a social project. The businessman will not have any benefits from here, " Yerkebulan Khasenov said.

He also noted that mountain huts are not capital construction.

"If the hut is located high in the mountains, it can be built from natural stone. You can also use some container for these purposes. We have one entrepreneur who offers to make it in the form of a yurt. This is very important for the mountains, because the yurt allows you to keep warm. We do not require entrepreneurs to build according to a single standard, according to a single sketch. They will not only build these huts, but will also maintain them, replenish supplies, if something happens, repair them. It is important for us that they follow them later, " Yerkebulan Khasenov said.

 

"We had different opinions. We considered the option that people who got to the hut would call, and they would receive a password by SMS to open the door. There is such a thing in Europe. But it's too early for us to think about it, we hope for people's consciousness: that people who are high in the mountains will not spoil them, break them, turn them into a toilet, " he said.
