Aminovka River Gorge in Adygea

What to Expect and Is It Worth Visiting

Aminovka River - another tributary of the Belaya River. Like the Mishoko Gorge trail, the Aminovka Gorge trail starts on the outskirts of Kamennomostsky. This place is not for all tourists, but only for those who have already looked all around, and want to see something new. On the river there are at least a dozen waterfalls and water slides, grottoes, three Dukhan caves, a saxophone and a flute. The length of the river and the gorge is about 10 kilometers, and to get to the caves and see the most interesting places and beautiful waterfalls, you have to walk almost to its very sources, i.e. it is better to plan a full day for the entire route, and even better to plan an overnight stay in a tent at the source of the river, where the caves are located.

The trail here is very bad and sparsely populated, so hiking skills won't hurt, as Will good trekking shoes and trekking poles. It is best to go on this hike light, taking only water and some food for a snack (if you do not spend the night at the source). Keep in mind that in some places the easiest and shortest path will pass directly along the channel in the water.
