Maykop

Cave Through

Russia, Republic of Adygea, Maikop district, Kamennomostsky settlement

Description:

According to the ancient Adyghe legend, in the mountains near the White River lived once an evil and cruel giant, whose name was Rufabgo. Having subdued all the surrounding villages, the giant overlaid him with an exorbitant tribute. Every year he took the most beautiful girl from every village. This continued for many years until the giant was defeated by a brave young man named Hajoch.

The cave in which once lived the legendary giant and now you can see, climbing the mountain at the Rufabgo stream. Now the cave is called through. This is a large grotto in the rock above the Noise Falls. It is amazing to imagine a huge entrance to the cave, really suitable for a giant. At the back of the cave in the ceiling there is a large hole resembling the shape of the eyes. The sloping floor of the cave is cluttered with boulders. The length of the cave is twenty-five meters. To get into the cave you can walk four hundred meters along the trail from the waterfall Noise.
