Which waterfalls in Abkhazia can be visited for free?

In Abkhazia, there are several beautiful waterfalls that can be visited absolutely free. These include:

• Shakuran Waterfall — one of the most interesting, with caves and a boxwood forest. Free, but for guide accompaniment on site they may ask for 500 rubles.
• Maiden's Tears Waterfall — located right by the road to Lake Ritsa, before the entrance to the national park.
• Gupsky Waterfall — an unusual waterfall where water flows down the rock, and there is a pool for swimming below. Located in the Ochamchira district.
• Big Baryalsky (Macharsky) Waterfall — picturesque but little-known, requires a little effort to see it in all its glory.
