Route description
The main direction starts beside Akhun Tower’s exterior, crosses woodland and reaches the upper Agura Gorge side. It then passes Agura’s cascade area and Devil’s Pool before ending near the lower entrance area. Examine the tower’s limestone form only from permitted outside ground: interior and top access are closed for reconstruction. In the gorge, attention shifts to waterfall steps and the rocky pool, while the middle cascade remains invisible from the path. Short side portions and a separate upper portion also belong to this version, without a ready combined circuit. Akhun territory and its closed tower have different statuses; the Agura ecological path is closed, with an additional published weather closure until favourable conditions. Present through passage is unconfirmed, and upper arrival/lower departure need separate arrangements.

Agree upper Akhun arrival and lower gorge departure separately. Children need experience on a longer rocky path. Walking is specified in the primary gorge passport; a stroller is unsuitable. Dogs and bicycles are prohibited at recreational objects. Present complete passage and continuous reception are unestablished.
Nearby
Eagle Rocks and Prometheus require their own upper branch and permission check. Akhunskaya Cave lies near the woodland portion, without a confirmed equipped ordinary visit. Devil’s Hole beside the pool is inaccessible. A ticket or open mountain territory does not authorize entry into the tower.
Getting there
Варианты и важные моменты
Show on map
Without a car
For the lower Agura side, the park names Sputnik Bus Stop and a separate gorge-checkpoint approach. Check current services and departure. Verified regular delivery to the selected high tower start is unavailable; agree upper arrival and permitted walking connections separately.
By car
The park describes Big Akhun’s upper road approach from A 147 near Sputnik. This serves the tower side, followed by a separate walk from the vehicle area. The lower gorge road belongs to the other day endpoint; check its weather-closure status. The complete woodland path has no vehicle passage.
Parking
The park names Big Akhun’s former helicopter-platform vehicle area, while the gorge passport names a lower bridge-side vehicle area. Check present permission, terms and spaces for each independently. Upper vehicle storage does not resolve return after the lower finish.

Риски
Confirm permitted outside ground at the reconstruction site and removal of the gorge weather restriction before starting. Avoid barriers and closed paths. Uneven woodland ground, wet limestone and cascade steps demand careful footing. Do not connect separate short portions directly across slopes. Avoid cave entry or approaches to the invisible middle fall.
