Dombay Sights

Dombay, one of the most popular ski centers in the Caucasus, is good for both professionals and beginners: everyone will find suitable trails there. The resort is very compact: all hotels are concentrated on dombayskaya Polyana and are located in close proximity to the ski lifts, from one end of the village to the other can be reached in 20 minutes. The ski season runs from December to may.

Each attraction on Dombay is unique. But it is worth highlighting the Murujin lakes in the valley of the Ullu-Muruju river at an altitude of 3000 m. The lakes include 15 reservoirs, but tourists tend to see only two. You can only get to the lakes on foot, but it is better to resort to the help of a guide and allocate two days for a walk with an overnight stay.

Alibek glacier and waterfall, one of the most popular and must - visit places. The glacier observation deck is easily accessible, and there are many trails to other attractions along the way.Another local attraction is the Devil's mill, which is worth visiting during your vacation on Dombay. A walk to the Devil's mill is best combined with a walk in the Amanauz gorge. There are signs to the waterfall. The main thing is not to get lost with it and not to go behind the signs with the designation of the border zone.
