Dakhovskoye Rural Settlement has served as a rural administrative community in the Republic of Adygea since the early 21st century. Its scattered communities occupy the wooded northern foothills of the Greater Caucasus in Maykopsky District, where roads follow slopes and river valleys. The Belaya River is a defining waterway of this part of Adygea, flowing north toward the Kuban basin. Adygea is the historic homeland of the Adyghe, also known as Circassians, whose language and traditions remain central to the republic’s identity. The settlement’s low-density mountain setting contrasts with the larger city of Maykop farther north.

Dakhovskoye Rural Settlement combines the settled tradition of its Cossack stanitsas with the rugged upper valley of the Belaya River in a way that reflects its geographic position in Adygea’s Western Caucasus foothills. Centered on Dakhovskaya and extending toward places such as Guzeripl, the municipality lies near the Caucasus State Nature Biosphere Reserve, a core area of the UNESCO-listed Western Caucasus. Dakhovskaya was founded in 1862 as a Cossack stanitsa, while local roads lead toward the Lago-Naki Plateau.
