Makhuntseti Waterfall

Located about 30 km from Batumi in the picturesque mountains of Adjara, Makhuntseti Waterfall is one of the region's most popular natural attractions. Surrounded by lush greenery and dramatic cliffs, the waterfall plunges nearly 50 meters into a crystal clear natural pool, creating a refreshing escape from the city's coastline. A short and easy walk from the main road makes it an ideal destination for visitors of all ages.

The area around the waterfall offers much more than beautiful scenery. Nearby, you'll find the historic Queen Tamar Bridge, a well preserved medieval stone arch bridge, as well as local cafés and stalls selling Adjarian specialties, homemade honey, churchkhela, and regional wines. Together, they create the perfect setting for a memorable day trip into Mountain Adjara.
