Getting there

151 m above the Tsaxkaru river, which runs 900 m away in a straight line.

No mapped road reaches it: the nearest road is about 800 m away, so plan to walk the last stretch.

By car, on the road network (OSRM routing on OpenStreetMap roads). Real times vary with traffic and road works.
