Canyon of the Psakho River
The Psakho River Canyon is considered one of the most beautiful places in Sochi: there is one canyon, but it has two parts: "Wet" and "Dry". The eleven-kilometer-long Psakho River flows along the "Wet" one, while the "Dry" One, formed by an earthquake, served as a riverbed only in the past. This is a great place to spend your holidays in Russia and find inspiration while admiring the beauty of nature.
"Wet"
The "wet" made its way through the Canyon of the Psakho River and a boxwood grove, add to this the plants overgrown with moss and because of this forest outfit similar to a scarecrow. The "wet" surprises the tourist with another indescribable art that came from the distant, distant past - the age of boxwoods: this is an ancient creature in age, they say, a resident of the age of dinosaurs. In some places, the Canyon of the Psakho River stretches up to 10 meters wide, and sometimes, narrowing, reaches a meter and a half mark.
Irrational desire for knowledge
It is known that tourists go on different trips, primarily based on the desire to learn and collect information, which they often save on smartphones and carefully leave in their memory. After 5 minutes of almost light walking up the iron stairs, the tourist will find that access to the "Wet", obtained for 100 rubles, is limited by a harsh inscription: "The end!" This means that further pursuit of knowledge of the Canyon of the Psakho River can only be carried out at your own risk, since the inscription categorically insists: "You can't!"
Bans are needed
This may, of course, seem strange, since it is well known that the best views of the Psakho River Canyon open further than the above-mentioned sign. This type of travel is dangerous. Although ahead, along the route, there is a "Dry Canyon". Keep in mind only that the inscription did not accidentally warn you: the walk will be difficult. The dry canyon is not the most convenient passage for a tourist, going between the rocks, which is also littered with debris throughout. But the garbage is forest, not man-made, which means that the tourist will face natural obstacles: bushes and trees clinging to the rock with their root system. It takes about thirty minutes to walk from "Wet" to "Dry". It's very easy to get lost without a guide, so it's best not to take any chances.
Additional information
For those who want to take a dip, the Psakho River has carefully and thoughtfully prepared the so-called "karst troughs".
