By train
There is a train that can take you to the peninsula, and then continues around the top of the lake over to Shorjha, a beautiful spot. The train, while cheap, does not earn rave reviews.
By taxi
Getting to Shorjha on the far side is trickier, and a taxi may be your best bet. You can get a taxi to the Lake with some time for you to enjoy the beach for about 10,000 dram round trip.
