Honey Waterfalls (Medovye Vodopady) are located 40 minutes drive from Kislovodsk. This is an atmospheric, peaceful and beautiful place. Noise of the water, paved paths, a pond and flower beds — everything here contributes to a calm repose and going for-walk. Wild bees once lived in the local rocks under the waterfalls. Water jets sometimes washed out the bee’s cells and flowed further, becoming honey sweet. Hence the name: Honey Waterfalls.
Today there are no bees here, but as believed, the water in the waterfalls is so clean and delicious, that after tasting it you can feel a subtle honey flavor. A group of waterfalls, consisting of five streams flowing into a picturesque mountain gorge, is located on the Alikonovka River. There are many tourist trails, recreation centers and restaurants near the Honey Waterfalls.
