Its story
The waterfall takes its name from Maralköy, formerly called Mindieti, and lies on the Maral Stream, which rises in the Karçal Mountains. The water falls from a height of about 63 meters over a single break in slope and has carved a deep plunge pool where it lands. The Maral Stream is a tributary of the Macahel Stream, which crosses into Georgian territory and joins the Çoruh. In spring its flow increases markedly with the snowmelt, and in summer it keeps flowing with spring water. As it lies within the Camili Biosphere Reserve, it can easily be added to a route exploring the Macahel villages and their wooden architecture.
