Winter magic of the mountains in Adygea

After breakfast, you will enjoy a walk through the Rufabgo Gorge, an ancient tectonic fault with steep slopes, stone terraces, caves and steep rock corridors up to 150 m high.

We pass through stone labyrinths, waterfalls, visit historical sites — the "zindan" of a medieval fortress, an ancient altar and menhirs.

In winter, instead of waterfalls, there are ice shells, and when it snows, the gorge becomes uniquely charming.

After dinner, we are waiting for you in our cozy cafe, where you can chat with new friends, listen to music, play board games or sing along to the guitar. In general, have a good evening in pleasant company!

After breakfast, we drive towards the Lago Naki plateau.

After reaching the Gutter gorge (1,700 meters above sea level), we climb to the observation point. From here you can enjoy magnificent panoramic views of the plateau, rock outcrops up to 100 meters high.

Next, we will have a snowshoe walk through the snow-covered wild forest above the Kurdzhipsky tract.

When we get to the wildest and most beautiful places, among the snow-covered fir trees, we make a campfire, arrange a hot rest snack. It will be extremely desirable, and the presence of local spirits as a tasting will give our meal a touch of celebration.

The route is circular, so we manage to get to the most interesting places.

After the end of the route, we go sledding! Fast flights down the snowy slope are waiting for you.

In the late afternoon, we return to the base, where we will have a delicious dinner, natural home cooking, and gatherings in a warm company by the fireplace.

On this day, our route will pass through the canyon of the Mishoko River. There are caves, rocks, grottos, waterfalls, panoramic points, and even an ancient human site.

We will head along the riverbed, along stone ledges, boulders, passages, where each time the "rock bag" closes with a beautiful waterfall.

The next place to visit is Black Noise Beach.

The tour does not take much time (about 1 hour), but it will give you an idea of what a canyon of a mountain river is. Here, on the steep, almost completely bare limestone walls, numerous niches can be seen, washed away by a rapid stream.

For those who want to add even more vivid emotions and extreme impressions to this day, we suggest going rafting on a mountain river (extra charge).

In the late afternoon, we return to the base, where we will have a delicious dinner and cozy gatherings by the fireplace.

We are going on an off—road trip through the labyrinths of the underworld - to wild caves. You can know a lot about them, but once inside, you really begin to feel their beauty and primevalness.

Our wild cave is one of the most beautiful karst cavities. Some of its leaky formations are composed of soft calcite, which makes it white.

Going down into the depths, you feel the spirit of an explorer in yourself. This feeling does not leave until the evening.

We will also remember our experiment — "magical sounds of music" in total darkness.

After the route, we return to the base, where home cooking awaits us, gatherings with a guitar.

We have breakfast and set off on the route.

Today we will visit the Granite Canyon and the Museum of the Caucasian Biosphere Reserve (Guzeripl village), we will see the largest dolmen in Adygea. This "giant" will make quite a strong impression on you due to its aesthetic and megalithic features.

We will talk about the history and mysteries of the Caucasian dolmens, the emergence of construction technology and the mysterious disappearance of the grandiose culture of dolmen builders. We will also explore the exhibits of the Museum of nature and the history of the reserve.

Along the way, we make stops at the picturesque points of the Granite Canyon, we will approach the narrow places where the mountain river is squeezed by stone giants.

The road to the village of Guzeripl itself impresses with the change of landscapes and the view of the rocky belt of the Kamennoe Sea mountain range. This tsunami, refracted at almost right angles at its highest point, is called Nagoya Kosh and rises 300 meters.

We return to the base in the evening.

Enjoy calm horseback riding, feel unity with a strong and intelligent animal on a high-altitude plateau, admiring the grandeur of the Caucasian Mountains with white caps of glaciers. Ride along the panoramic points with views of the deep gorge.

After lunch at the base, we go to the hot springs.

Snow falling into hot water, the soft and relaxing effect of the water, steam rising from the surface of the pool, the stars of the night sky, the play of light and sound — all this is an excellent end to a good day.

9:00 a.m. Breakfast, packing.
