* Kabardino-Balkaria, which occupies the southwestern part of the Central Caucasus, is rightfully considered the edge of the deepest gorges in the Caucasus, the highest peaks with glaciers. Rivers and waterfalls are born here. In order to see them, it is not necessary to go high into the mountains: it is enough to go to the Chegem gorge.
Chegemskoye differs from other gorges in the republic in that the road runs almost along its bottom, and the gorge is very narrow. Here, surrounded by sheer walls 300 meters high, the Chegem waterfalls, the most accessible to visit, descend from different levels. “Girls' braids”, “Women's tears“, "Men's tears", “Lace" – these names are quite justified: some pour out from the middle of the rock in streams, others flow in thin ribbons, others you won't notice until you look closely... Direct sunlight does not get here, and therefore the light is slightly dimmed and the twilight reigns. Walking through the gorge, you will see how firmly rooted the century-old pines are in the dolomites and limestone, as they nestle against the rocks of the cafe. By the way, there will be free time to taste simple dishes of national cuisine: zhau-baur, shorpa, Balkarian khichins (flatbreads with different fillings), fried or baked trout.… Or maybe a shish kebab made from black lamb meat? The Chegem waterfalls are beautiful at any time of the year, and in winter they freeze, forming white ice pillars and columns, sometimes resembling stalactites.
To cheer up, get healthier, rejuvenate – that's why they go to the springs of the Geduko complex in the Baksan district of Kabardino-Balkaria! The sodium chloride thermal waters of the spring, when applied externally, have an anti-inflammatory, analgesic effect, and blood supply to organs and tissues is enhanced. All you need is to relax in the pools, the rest will be done by “living water".
