Dzhur-Dzhur Waterfall
Natural object
Dzhur-Dzhur waterfall is the most powerful and one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Crimea.
It is formed by the Eastern Ulu-Uzen River, which flows through the difficult-to-pass wooded Khaphal gorge. The mountain stream empties from a 15-meter ledge into a deep pit and flows further down the gorge.
The name is translated from Crimean Tatar as "forever murmuring".
Dzhur-Dzhur waterfall is the most abundant Crimean waterfall, it does not run out even in dry years.
Upstream you can see a whole series of picturesque rapids-cascades. Nearby is the 750-meter-long Dzhur-Dzhur cave.
Many hiking routes cross here. Entrance to the territory of the reserve is paid.
