Eka-Chozhinsky waterfall is one of the largest in mountain Ingushetia. Located in the Assin Gorge at an altitude of 1000 m above sea level, it is fed by 18 springs that merge together into the left tributary of the Assa River. It has two cascades. At the bottom is a rocky stone bowl of great depth. The height of the waterfall is 37 m, width is 7 m. Being in a protected place, the waterfall is surrounded by massive trees of rare breeds.

Eka-Chozhinsky waterfall was discovered not so long ago - in 2014. Over time, in order to make hikes to the waterfall safe and comfortable for visitors, a transition bridge was built across the river Assa, the paths running along the stream were cleared. The ascent to the waterfall is moderately difficult - you will have to climb to a height of 100 meters along a path 600 m long.

In addition, the waterfall is located outside the border zone of the Jeirakh district, which makes it accessible to foreign tourists without obtaining a special pass.

Eka-Chozhinsky waterfall is a natural monument protected by the state.
