Circassian waterfall

At the twenty-third mile, where Gega takes Yupshara turquoise waters, and a new route. Leaving the road to Ritsu, turn left onto the bridge. The road, with a wag of a few times on the steep turns, goes up dramatically. Here the river affects the steepness of the fall. In the solid foam, forming in some places cascades, it rushes with a roar at the stone lodge their waters. The bed littered with giant boulders. After two or two and a half mile climb over, and the car goes into a flat valley with a paved road leading to logging. Another four kilometers, and you hear a strong noise. Following the path of a small hill and go into the light filled the area. With the steep limestone cliffs of the ten-horizontal slit, with a deafening noise of the mass of water falls. Halfway stream hits the brow, expanding and crashes down on tridtsatimetrovym fan. High-water stream falling from a height of about fifty meters, forms a powerful air wave. The foot of the waterfall and the nearest approach to it constitute a solid mass of rock debris. This pile was formed here as a result of the annual incidence in the spring of mighty avalanches, which is bringing down the slopes of debris of rocks. To the left of the waterfall formidable rock ledge overhangs, and deep beneath it are visible in the twilight of the niche and move. Randomly scattered huge stone blocks dressed age-old moss. Excursion to the waterfall at Gege can be combined with a trip to Lake Riza. On leaving the cars from Sochi (or Sukhumi) not later than six or seven o'clock in the morning of a summer day is enough, but infinitely more will experience if the trip to spend two days with an overnight stay at the lake. In the latter case, the first day of play at the visit to the Lake Riza. Lengthy road with mass bends, a stopover, a tour of the resort Gagra is already a big burden for one day. The evening can be made on Ritz - walking on the mountain Sosnovka or Avadharskomu highway, boat riding, fishing. It is interesting to admire the fading sunset in the mountains. And what could be healthier and more enjoyable night at the Ritz, where the air is so wonderful! Up early in the morning will provide an opportunity to observe the unique play of color on the formidable spiers Atsetuki. With fresh forces tourists get in the car and after some thirty minutes of arriving to turn on Gegu from which to the waterfall at hand. It goes without saying that the way to the Circassian waterfall will be much more interesting and more valuable if it is done on foot, at least from the entrance to the gorge Bzybsky to which you can reach the coast by bus or by train.
