Why visit

Dashbashi, also called Tsalka Canyon, is a protected natural monument in the Khrami River gorge, 1,200 to 1,500 metres above sea level. Its eight kilometres of cliffs, waterfalls and trails sit within Algeti National Park.

What to expect

It is one of Georgia's most visited natural sites. Trails lead into the gorge, and paid attractions above it include a glass-floored bridge. Winter is cold here, and the waterfall can freeze.
