Zhyngyldyozek

[2] Zhyngyldyozek flows across desolate areas, Koskol village is located close to the Shubarteniz, near the outflowing point of the river.

The river flows first roughly northwestwards across dry steppe and semi-desert territory where there is almost no surface runoff.

In its last stretch, as it nears the Shalkarteniz, it bends and heads roughly northwards in an area of solonchak soil.

The bed of the Zhyngyldyozek is unbranched, underdeveloped, and tends to break up erratically into pools along its entire length.

It has a steady water flow only for about one or two months, during the melting of the snows in the spring, when the depth of the river may reach 3 metres (9.8 ft) in places.
