Its story

The Palovit Waterfall is in the Çamlıhemşin district, within the boundaries of the Kaçkar Mountains National Park. It is fed by the Palovit Deresi (Palovit Stream) coming down from the Palovit Highland above, and falls from a height of about 15 meters. Although not very tall, it is referred to as one of Rize's waterfalls with the highest flow; it gushes especially in late spring and early summer, when the snow melts. The waterfall is one of the natural stops in the upper parts of the Fırtına Valley that can be visited on the same day as Zilkale. Its surroundings are covered with dense forest and rocky slopes.
