Agura Waterfalls
Агурские водопады
A classic hiking route in Sochi National Park. Follow the gorge up to three-tier waterfalls and climb to the 'Eagle Rock' from the myth of Prometheus.
Agura Gorge is located in Khosta District. The trail starts from a parking area near Matsesta and follows a stream through subtropical forest. About 1.5 kilometers later, you reach the three-tier Agura Waterfalls (up to about 23 meters high). Continuing upward leads to the 'Eagle Rock,' where Prometheus is said to have been chained, with a statue and views over the Black Sea. A round trip takes about 3 to 4 hours. The paths are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. Admission to the national park is about 300 rubles.
