Sharlama waterfall

Sharlama waterfall is a water feature in the Bashkortostan region located near Lake Asly-Kul. The water drops over a series of rocky steps, creating a natural cascade surrounded by forest and grassland.

The waterfall was first documented in geographical surveys of Bashkortostan's water systems conducted during the region's development period. These early records helped map the natural water features across the territory.

Local residents of Usen-Ivanovo village maintain connections with the waterfall through seasonal celebrations and environmental protection initiatives.

You can reach this waterfall by following marked trails from the Asylykyul nature park entrance, with the best views during spring when snowmelt increases water flow. The paths are straightforward to follow but require proper footwear as rocks can be slippery.

This waterfall forms part of an ecological passage that supports bird migration routes through the region, connecting different resting and feeding areas. This role makes it a valuable spot for birdwatchers during migration seasons.
