Travel to Dagestan. Sightseeing tour

We will see the mysterious Matlas Stone Bowl gorge, several waterfalls and a very beautiful memorial complex.

The first location of our trip is the Tobot Waterfall. 

He is not alone, he has two 70-meter neighbors! 

The waterfall is considered the pearl of the Khunzakh plateau. 

The next stop is the White Cranes Memorial Complex. 

This is a unique cultural monument that embodies those who died on the fields of all wars for their Fatherland. 

Next, we go for a walk through the dark labyrinths of the Matlas bowl, after which we will visit another picturesque Khan waterfall. 

Active part: 6.2 km, altitude difference within 20-70 m.

The reservoir on the Avar Koisu River is located among rocks on which small pines and fir trees grow. 

Further, the path of our organized tour lies in the Karadakh gorge. 

This place is called the "Gate of Wonders" – here a quiet whisper turns into an echo, here it seems that the mountains are about to close over your head, and a stream is about to burst out of the bowels of the earth and turn into a stormy river! 

Datun Temple is an ancient Christian shrine located in a stunningly cozy and beautiful gorge of Dagestan! 

The journey from the bus to the temple takes only 7-10 minutes and the whole walking path goes through very picturesque places.

You can go inside and take beautiful photos through the windows of the temple!

Our path partially passes by the reservoir we love on the Avarskoye Koisu River. 

Our next location will not let us relax, we will plunge back into the past – the towers of the village of Stary Kahib, as the most impregnable in the entire Caucasus, remember only one enemy breakthrough. 

Kahib's neighbor is the glorious city of Goor. 

It boasts picturesque towers, as well as stunning views from a height of the mountainous part of Dagestan!

In the city of Goor we will see the famous Troll Language! 

It is a stone ledge, proudly hovering over the abyss. 

This place is also called Maiden Rock. 

And, of course, there was a legend about the girl.

Active part: 10.2 km, altitude difference within 20-150 m.

The name of the village Chokh in Avar means "stop, parking". 

We will walk through the narrow old streets, look at the village from the observation deck.

The next stop is the legendary village of Gamsutl, which is often called Dagestan Machu Picchu. 

We will go hiking past the spring with delicious water and climb to the ghost village. 

Here dilapidated houses, not devoid of aesthetic elements, stand on a cliff, any builder would say that it is not realistic to build a house here, but the houses were built and still stand! 

And they would have stood without collapsing further if people had not left this place. 

Also today we will visit the Andalal Tower near the Gunib reservoir. 

If you climb the tower, you will have a beautiful view of the hydroelectric dam and the Gunib reservoir. 

The powerful flow of water in the waterfall, which was formed due to the discharge of water from the Gunib reservoir, will force you to take out a camera and capture it!

Active part: 5.5 km, elevation difference of 1450-1680 m.

After enjoying the views and history, today we go to the kingdom of water and stone – to the Saltinsky waterfall. 

If the water is high, then we put on rubber boots and go to the underground waterfall. 

If you went on a tour to Dagestan with your children, they will really like this underground walk! 

Also today we will visit a visually sooo unusual city – Gunib. 

It is located in a huge rift of the mountains, as if in a stone bowl. 

Gunib will delight us with its spectacular fortress and pleasant museum, where we will learn a lot of interesting things about Dagestan.

Next, we will move to the city of Derbent.

Active part: 2.5 km, altitude difference within 20-70 m.

We are waiting for the hospitable Derbent, whose name means "closed gate" in Persian.

On the site of the preserved Derbent citadel of Naryn-Kala, the first stone fortifications were erected at the turn of the VIII-VII centuries BC.

In the city, we will visit the Naryn-Kala fortress, take a walk around the old town, visit souvenir shops. 

We will definitely walk along a cozy pedestrian street.

Happy people and let's go to Nizami Ganjavi Park - here we will see a square with a huge fountain and such inviting swings ;). 

The cherry on the cake of a multi-day tour of Dagestan will be a walk through the local market.
