Aminovka River Gorge

Aminovka is a small river in the Republic of Adygea. The length of the river is 9 kilometers, most of the way the river flows along the Aminovsky gorge, and the rest of its path runs through the village of Kamennomostsky. The gorge and the river got their names from the governor Mohammed Amin. During the Caucasian War, Muhammad Amin restrained the defense here from Russian troops.

In the Aminovsky gorge there are amazing picturesque waterfalls, mysterious grottoes and caves, huge heaps of stones and rock outcrops. Tourists are quite rare here, in the gorge there are no usual tourist sites with fires, the trunks of beeches and chestnuts that grow here are not written with various inscriptions. The path begins in the gorge with a barely noticeable path, which gradually disappears completely. Then the path passes along the rocky riverbed.

An attentive tourist who walks along the trail will be able to find ammonites on the banks of the river, fossilized remains of ancient mollusks. In the gorge there are constantly small waterfalls and waterfalls. There are 15 waterfalls of different sizes, each of them has its own character. One waterfall rolls down quietly. The other is falling rapidly in multi-stage cascades. Aminovsk gorge and the river Aminovka can be a great place to relax for those who want to hide from the bustle of the city in the fabulous gorges of the mountains.
