Arkhyz

Arkhyz is rightfully called the Caucasian Switzerland, and our travel agency is ready to show you this pearl in all its splendor. The excursion is designed to cover the main attractions and give unforgettable impressions.

Acquaintance with Arkhyz begins with the Nizhny Arkhyz settlement — a place where the oldest Christian temples of the 10th century have been preserved, testifying to the rich history of this region. Three majestic Zelenchuk temples, standing surrounded by mountains, amaze with their architecture and energy. Then you ascend by cable car to the slopes of the Abishira-Akhuba Ridge, from where a fantastic circular panorama opens up. The next point on the route is the mountain lakes, whose water has an incredible turquoise hue and remains icy even at the height of summer. The excursion concludes with a walk to the Sofia Waterfalls, whose powerful streams cascade from a multi-meter height, creating a rainbow in the sun’s rays. Along the way, the guide will tell about the flora and fauna of the Teberda Reserve and the legends that shroud these places.
