Chegem gorge

Chegem gorge is one of the picturesque places near the city of Nalchik, which is located on the territory of the Kabardino-Balkar Republic. Near the gorge is a village that is shrouded in high mountains. And at the bottom of this depression flows a river called Chegem.

In this place you can see a variety of waterfalls that flow from the split cliffs. One of them is located after the entrance to the gorge, called Small Chegemsky.

The narrowest place here is the Chegem cliff, in which there are Great Waterfalls. There is always half-darkness in this place, except for 4 hours, when the rays of light make their way inside, and then disappear again.

You can get to this attraction using personal transport, city or excursion bus.
