Stepovi Waterfalls

Kozatske

About this place

Near Nova Kakhovka, in the village of Kozatske, among the southern steppes, like an oasis in the desert, there is a small islet where unique waterfalls flow. They stand beneath the walls of the old Trubetskyi Palace, adding to the picturesque character of this mysterious place.

The steppe waterfalls formed because of the construction and launch of the hydroelectric power station in Nova Kakhovka. Under pressure, the water eroded the soft limestone, creating channels. Thanks to the efforts of local residents, the area around the waterfalls was cleaned up and landscaped. Today it is one of the popular tourist spots among local residents, where on a hot day you can relax with pleasure and immerse yourself in an unforgettable atmosphere of harmony with nature.

Interesting facts:

  • The waterfalls were discovered by chance, as the area was neglected and sparsely populated.
  • These are the youngest waterfalls in Ukraine.
  • There are plans to include the waterfalls in well-known tourist routes, and for now tourists can take good photos without the crowds.
