With their thrilling rapids, drastic jumps in height and deep canyons, the mountain streams in the Northern Caucasus have always attracted extreme sport lovers and those looking for active leisure. One such attraction is the Belaya River, which passes through a series of different landscapes and is known for its temperamental flow — one that constantly changes as it travels from its source to the mouth of the river. This river also hosts a number of international rafting competitions every year, but you don’t have to be a professional in order to test these rapids. Even a novice can try their hand at water tourism here, where interesting canyoning routes abound. Following one of the river’s tributaries, travellers come upon the Rufabgo Waterfall. Here visitors can discover the history of this epic giant and enjoy the breathtaking natural beauty of the Northern Caucasus as they travel from one waterfall to the next along the river canyon.
