About

Shaglyteniz or Shagalalyteniz (Kazakh: Шағалалытеңіз; Russian: Шаглытениз) is a lake in Akkayin and Taiynsha districts, North Kazakhstan Region, Kazakhstan.

The villages of Barykol, Kurya, Intally, Elizavetinka and Kuchkovka lie near the lakeshore. Taiynsha town lies 10 kilometers (6.2 mi) to the south of the lake. Road P-249 runs close to the northern end of Shaglyteniz. The lake and its adjacent marshes are an important bird area, but much under threat owing to human interaction.
