If desired, you can climb 500 steps to view it up close. • Arkhyz settlement The Sofia Waterfalls, which are a cascade of nine powerful streams of water, are considered the most beautiful not only in Karachay-Cherkessia, but also in the entire Caucasus. Here, the purest glacial water falls from a height of 50 to 90 meters and noisily hits the ground, creating misty clouds on which the sun's rays play. It is at the Sofia Waterfalls that the Sofia River originates, which provides water to Bolshoy Zelenchuk, the richest waterway in the area. • The Shoan Temple is one of the most beautiful temples of the Alan diocese. Pilgrims and tourists traveling in Karachay-Cherkessia can go up to the shrine, light a candle and ring the bell hanging in the gazebo next to the temple. • We will stop at a cafe where we will definitely try the Caucasian cuisine. • If there is time left, the tour can be supplemented by a visit to the Alan Hillfort Museum Reserve. • Return to Kislovodsk at 21.00.
