The waterfall is located on the territory of the Taberdin reserve and about seven kilometers separates it from the Dombay village. Several hiking trails of varying difficulty lead to the waterfall and from the Alibek climbing camp.
For the hardiest
It is better to set aside a couple of days for a hike to the Sufrudzha waterfalls, because a one-way trip can take at least six hours. Despite the complexity of the route, this excursion is very popular among active travelers, because the gorge of the Amanauz River, where the turbulent streams of a 250-meter waterfall rush down, is one of the most beautiful places in the North Caucasus.
The second Sufrudja waterfall is much lower, but its power and the speed of the water fall make admiring spectators freeze in amazement. Stone fragments often rush into the abyss from 60 meters, and therefore the guides recommend observing special safety rules when visiting this natural attraction.
