What to see at Lake Ritsa and nearby?

At Lake Ritsa itself, you can stroll along the promenade, ride a catamaran (price from 500 RUB/person for 30 minutes) and visit local cafes with shashlik. But the main attractions are nearby. Here is a list of places worth seeing:

• Bird's Beak Waterfall — located right by the road, not far from the lake.
• Milk Waterfall — a beautiful waterfall that you can walk to.
• Stalin's Dacha — a museum on the opposite shore of the lake, where you can learn the history and see the interiors.
• Little Ritsa Lake — located 2.5 km up the road, less crowded and no less picturesque.

On the way to the lake, you will also encounter the Blue Lake, the Men's and Women's Tears waterfalls, and the Yupshar Gorge. If you have time and desire, you can go further into the mountains to the Valley of Seven Lakes or Lake Mzy.
