Tiso-Samshitovaya Roshcha
Park
Open Details
A fascinating relict forest that takes you back to the pre-glacial period. It is rich in flora and fauna, with an equally rich history. You can explore the grove by taking one of three trails - the Little Ring, the Big Ring and the Deep Forest Trail. The Small Ring is the shortest and easiest path, it is 1.6 km long, so a leisurely walk will not take more than an hour. On the way you will see the Giant Yew, which has been growing for over 1,000 years, a stone maze and the Colchis forest.

33 Vodopada
Landmark
Open Details
Probably one of the most popular places for outdoor activities near Sochi. A cascade of beautiful waterfalls, surrounded by legends: the first one brings good luck if you stand under its jets with your head, the fifth one is money. To reach the waterfalls is not difficult: you have to reach the village Golovinka by car and turn towards the aul Bolshoi Kichmai. At some point the asphalt road ends, so it is important to assess the passability of your car.

Solokhaul Park. Eko Park "Zelonaya Polyana".
Theme Park
Open Details
A secret place that not many people know about! A serpentine path leads to the park, and it's impressive in scale. There are tea plantations for romantic photo shoots, balloon flights, horseback rides, archery, rafting and even an APC ride. In the end, you can simply have a picnic with a view of the Fisht Mountain or lie in a hammock. And local cafe will offer you dishes cooked on coals, famous Solokhau tea and pancakes with home-made jam. Isn't it a thrill?

MAMAI-CALÉ
Restaurant
Open Details
A colonial-style restaurant in a national park. The mansion with floor-to-ceiling windows and a fireplace is surrounded by an exotic-looking garden, and its relaxed atmosphere is more reminiscent of Bali than Sochi. The restaurant's chef managed to combine European, Caucasian and even Kazakh dishes in one menu and the check is above average but well worth it. It is better to book a few weeks in advance.
