AbkhaziaWhat to Expect and Is It Worth Visiting
Gup waterfall also called Aquarash and Ashtada, but what exactly his name is, we do not know. Locals call it simply Gupsky. It is located in a narrow gorge on the GUP River, and has an unusual appearance: the water in it does not fall from a height, but flows down the rock in a powerful stream, and only at the very bottom breaks into free fall. At the base of the waterfall formed a fairly large pool where you can swim. These places are also known for the fact that here on the banks of the river right on the surface there are deposits of blue clay, which is used for cosmetic purposes. Only one thing is bad – the waterfall is located far from popular tourist resorts, and separately it is quite far to go.

the waterfall is located in Ochamchira district near the village of Gup on the GUP River (waterfall on the map. You can only get there by your own transport, and to find it, it is best to use the Navigator and the help of local residents. You can drive almost to the waterfall itself (the landmark is the old broken bridge over the GUP River), and then walk along the river for about 500 meters. Not far from it, before reaching, there is a good site for a tent camp.
