Tranquil waterfall and pool. Went in week before Christmas (off season) and were the only guests here. Small place so I can see it becoming very crowded in summer. The road signs on the way there state "This road suitable for all cars" I would hate to see the alternative road that is not suitable for some cars as the suitable for all cars road I would hesitate to call a road at all. I'm not talking about a few potholes here and there , I'm talking a narrow single lane mountain pass with a shear drop at the side in places that a male goat would think twice about trying to navigate even if there was a nanny goat on heat sitting on top of a mountain of burgers at the other end! I would have got some pictures to share but I could not hold my phone to use as a camera as my fingers had all cramped into a white knuckled fists around my steering wheel after the first few minutes. If you have a hire car that has your credit card details on file then forget about it! I'm not joking. At one point I had to stop and make sure I had no fluids leaking (other than in my pants) as after one particular amateur stunt jump in my car that would have unlocked an achievement if I had been playing GTA V, I was convinced that something surely must have broke. The fact that i made it home is a testament to Hyundai. I've never rated them before but after that will seriously consider them upon my next purchase.
All in all it was a nice day out. Certainly one we will not forget. The family had a great time both at the waterfalls and even more so on the drive there. The two year old was clapping and screaming happily like he was at a fun fair.
Staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. Will be going for another visit when we pass this way again and...
Read moreThe waterfalls and baths are quite spectacular and not something you'd expect to find nestled up in the mountains.
Lots of people have commented on the drive there, and I was even stopped by a fellow tourist [as I left the access road] who asked if it was safe. The answer is yes, just take it slow, keep in first or second gear and you'll be fine. I hired a VW Golf and it managed without any problems.
Once there, there is a strange museum you go through before reaching the first bath and waterfall. I didn't understand the museum and it was all rather odd, but kind of cool in a quirky way.
The first pool is reached by winding an uneven stone steps, so watch your footing and take it slow. Once you get to the main pool, it really is a sight for sore eyes. The water is a lovely blue/green and you can jump in off the low hanging tree branch if you're feeling brave! The water is COLD so the jump is definitely the best way to get in.
The pools do get busy, particularly if larger tour groups arrive, but it's just luck of the draw whether that happens or not.
The second pool is the higher and less busy of the two, as it's smaller but actually more picturesque in my opinion.
The statues are a nice addition - particularly the golden Priabos - and the Amphitheatre was a lot bigger than expected.
There are lots of amenities such as toilets, bars and changing rooms on site so it caters well for visitors.
I've given 4 stars as I found the safety of the pools and in particular the second higher bath/pool very lacking and it's easy to lose your footing and have a nasty accident.
All in all, it's worth the trip and will cost about €40 for a...
Read moreThe location itself looks wonderful. You can bathe in the cold lake and enjoy the beautiful nature.
The road to the destination is quite bad in parts! If I was with my own car I would have turned around half way and given up, of course the rental car lasted...
‼️ Do not take a taxi to this destination because the taxi drivers only dropped off people from our group halfway and they didn't want to drive further, and since the drivers were locals, they knew what kind of road was waiting for them there, but they accepted the ride, which evidently proves that they wanted to make money from tourists. Leaving people in the middle of the sun in the middle of nowhere is really unprofessional! My friends experienced it and we wasted a lot of time going back to get them twice.
PRICE: The ticket price is a bit too high in my opinion. There is the option of a safari Jeep tour, which I believe is interesting, but there is an additional charge so that is another additional cost on top of the ticket itself, if you want to experience something more.
We asked the same safari Jeep to pick up a part of the team that was left halfway, for money, and they politely and arrogantly refused us, so we automatically did not want to take the...
