Joekvar Falls

Joekvar waterfall is one of the most frequently visited sights of Abkhazia. Its name comes from the name of the Joekwara River.

For tourists, the stunning beauty of the local nature for which they come here is of value. Covered with moss stones and tree trunks give the feeling of a fairy tale, an unreal place. River rapids create an unforgettable impression, as if they were laid out on purpose. And the air is such that no citizen will remain indifferent.

The waterfall is little known in the world, but this only gives it mystery and special charm. It is beautiful at any time of the year and day. When laying a walking route to it, you need to take into account that you will have to cross the river several times, so you should choose a day with the right weather.

You can get to Joekvar Falls from Old Gagra. To do this, you need to walk along Gagarin Square towards the mountains, where the Joekvar Gorge is located. The second way to visit this place is to admire it, signing up for a horse ride on Mamzykhsha Mountain.
