Kapnistavi Waterfall is one of the most picturesque places in Georgia, located in the heart of beautiful nature. This gorgeous place is also known as the Village of Seven Falls and is definitely worth a visit. The crystal clear waters of the waterfall cascade down the rocks, creating enchanting sounds and a refreshing atmosphere.

In order to get to this miracle of nature, you have to drive along a narrow and at first even a little scary road up the mountain. However, at the end of the road a village with very hospitable people awaits you. Parking here is free and you can leave your car on site.

Next you will have to walk along narrow paths up and down. Along the way you will enjoy amazingly beautiful nature, numerous bridges and picturesque views.

There is a wine house in the village, where friendly uncle Zurab will be happy to show you his production and organize a free wine tasting. This is a unique opportunity to taste local wines and learn more about the Georgian winemaking tradition.

A walk to the Kapnistavi waterfall is not just an opportunity to enjoy the views, but also an excellent opportunity to spend time in the fresh air and plunge into the world of natural beauty and harmony. The forests and mountains surrounding the waterfall create an impressive landscape that will remain in the memory for a long time.

This waterfall is one of many cascades in Adjara. There are more than a dozen of them in the region, all of which are described in detail in the guide to 11 waterfalls of Adjara.

Frequently asked questions about waterfalls

❓ 💧 How many waterfalls are there in Kapnistavi?

Officially, there are seven. Guides who lead groups here point out five, and search for two hidden ones along the way. According to locals, there are about ten in total, but some have no trail. Five developed waterfalls plus a separate upper one (35 m), so a total of six can be seen in a single day.

❓ 💧 How to get from Batumi?

By car: 26 km along the Batumi-Keda highway, GPS 41.5586°N, 41.7431°E, 25-30 minutes. Take minibus 77 from the Batumi bus station to Atdaris-Tskhali, then walk 2.5 km following the signs.

❓ 💧 Is it true that you can go inside the waterfall?

It's true. The large lower waterfall has a natural niche under a rocky outcrop. The water falls before you like a curtain, so you can stand inside without getting completely wet. This is one of the main reasons people come here.

❓ 💧 Is it possible to swim?

Yes. The lower cascades offer natural pools of clear mountain water. The water is cold in any season, and the bottom is rocky. Children can swim there when the water level is normal and the weather is dry.

❓ 💧 How long does it take?

The lower falls round trip takes 3-4 hours. The upper falls (35 m), museum, and wine tasting at Zurab's take a full day, 5-6 hours. Swimming and searching for hidden gems takes even longer.

❓ 💧 When is the best time to go?

Spring (April-May) is the busiest time of year. Summer offers swimming and the cool forest air. Autumn is less crowded. Whatever the time of day, choose morning: the trail is almost empty before 10:00 a.m.

    Хотите диких аджарских водопадов?
    Вам сюда! В одном месте - сразу несколько самых впечатляющих. Наиболее впечатляющий - вверх по дороге над деревней. Узкий, мощный, высотой 80 метров, вода сходит по красивейшему зелёному каньону!
