We booked a private family trip to White Waterfalls in advance. They met us, gave gear, explained everything and guide Hasan accompanied us. The views are impressive, and the guide showed photo points along the way.

Konstantin Baranovsky · May 5, 2026

We rode to White Waterfalls and the impressions were great: lots of emotion, forest sections, ravines, water and some mud. The return along the river had an incredible view.

How it differs

White Waterfalls are more active than the Sofia glaciers route: more water, wet sections, forest and rocks, with a mountain cascade as the final point.

If you want calmer scenery and more panoramas, choose Sofia glaciers. For a short first ride, choose Winter Forest. For real off-road with mud and water, choose Unnamed Lake.
