Hiking in Svaneti - Mestia to Ushguli

On this trip you get a unique opportunity to experience some of Georgia's most spectacular landscapes and pristine nature. You hike through the high alpine meadows of upper Svaneti and follow the popular trail between Mestia and Ushguli, which winds through deep green valleys surrounded by jagged mountain peaks.

During the tour you get a chance to study the unique Svan towers, which have stood close together since the 1200-1300s and carry a fascinating history. You will also see the mighty glaciers Chalaadi, Adishi and Shkhara, and cross the Chkhunderi pass at an impressive 2,655 meters altitude. Another highlight is the overnight stay in Ushguli, Europe's highest permanently inhabited village at 2,200 meters altitude, where you can soak up the authentic mountain village atmosphere.
