Shaki Waterfall

Shaki waterfall (height - 18m) is located near the town of Sisian. This beautiful waterfall is formed from the Shaki River, which is a small tributary of the wild Vorotan River. Many legends have been written about the origin of this waterfall. According to one of them, the waterfall got its name in honor of the beauty girl Shake, who threw herself from a cliff, not willing to obey the violence from the conquerors. During falling, the girl’s long dress opened from the wind and became a waterfall.



This place was beloved also in ancient times. Nearby, archaeologists discovered a large camp site belonging to prehistoric men. Here some stone tools were found, as well as the remains of ash.

This picturesque waterfall is worth your mandatory attention, and Eden Tour will make your trip easy and comfortable.
