Ķūķu rapids

Slightly below the rapids, apposite of the highest point of the cliffs, is the deepest whirlpool (ca. 7 m) of river Gauja. The steep cliff wall, rapids, river current and the whirlpool place it among the most dangerous sites on Gauja, therefore water tourists shall be very careful. Stepping into the water and swimming near Ķūķucliffs is also dangerous! Opposite of Ķūķucliffs there is a tourist accommodation site for ordinary and water tourists.
