The name of this place asis associated with local legend. When buryat (native people of Siberia) ancestors were occupying the Lake Baikal area in XVII century, their way further to north was blocked up with mountains. Then people shouted: "Zam-ungeree" which meant that the road has ended and disappeared. So the village was constructed at that place.
In 1990 the "Camel Trophy" expedition came to this place and went along near-by golden field.
Zama is a place for quiet private rest. In the mornings you’ll enjoy listening to the birds singing and waves splashing on the Baikal shore.
