What to visit and what to do in Adygea
Lago-Naki Plateau
Here it is recommended to turn off your phone and enjoy the silence. Inhale the aroma of blooming herbs, walk through centuries-old oak forests, mysterious caves and quaint valleys. Just contemplate. They say this is a real place of power, after visiting which you return completely renewed.
Rufabgo Waterfalls
There are more than 10 waterfalls located one after another. And not everywhere there are equipped trails – that’s the beauty of it. Between picturesque waterfalls you will pass along equally picturesque routes: with stone terraces, grottoes, gorges, giant ferns, beech forest – just like in the prehistoric era.
Extreme Park “Mishoko”
Located in the gorge of the same name. Trolleys, slacklining, canyoning, via ferratas (including in a cave), rope jumping, rappelling, climbing wall – choose what impressions to take with you. There are options here for both beginners just exploring extreme sports, and for daredevils who love more intense sensations.
Ticket: from 200 rubles*.
Absheronskaya railway
It runs among the rocks: the excursion train takes tourists between the Monakhovo tract and the Guam Gorge – look at the dizzying views, listen to numerous local legends. And then you can take a walk around the surrounding area. Unless, of course, you want to take another ride in exotic trailers.
Ticket: from 250 rubles*.
Rafting Workshop
Alloys are another way to interact with the power of wild nature. You can do this in the very heart of the mountain gorge of the Belaya River – as a walking mode (even with children), and in the extreme. The workshop offers several routes, each of which guarantees stunning views.
Rafting: from 1200 rubles*.
Thermal Baths of Hadzhokh
The composition of Adyghe sources surprises even scientists. Their healing power is compared to silver. Khadzhokh is famous for the fact that it has many deposits of thermal water: some of them are “wild”, some belong to tourist centers. If you want to visit the equipped ones, you don’t have to book a room – you can do it as a spa break for a few hours.
Entrance: from 500 rubles*.
Granite Canyon
The bare rocks are bordered by junipers, pines, barberries and, of course, rhododendron – in May it blooms, everything around turns yellow, the air is sweet and intoxicating. Along the riverbed you will reach a waterfall, on the right bank you will find the “Golden” spring (precious metal was previously mined here), and in the very south you will see Mount “Trident”.
Amazon Ranch
Go on a horseback ride along forest and mountain paths – where there is no one else. Only you, kind horses and the nature of the Caucasus. If you were planning a complete reboot on this vacation, then such a walk will definitely help: beautiful views and mountain air combined with hippotherapy work wonders.
Walk: from 600 rubles*.
