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 2655 meters altitude. Another highlight is the overnight stay in Ushguli, Europe's highest permanently inhabited village at 2200 meters altitude, where you can soak up the genuine mountain village atmosphere.

Arrival and overnight stay in Tbilisi. Georgia's capital borders east and west and stimulates visitors with its blend of old and new. The people are warm and hospitable, the scent of fresh bread and grilled food fills the air, and the entire city is beautifully situated by the Kura River, surrounded by hills.
Level and standard
The hike is physically demanding but not technically difficult. You should have good fitness and be used to long days in hilly terrain through forests, villages and glacial landscapes. One stage goes over a pass and can be experienced as more strenuous.
Accommodation
Breakfast and dinner are offered every day, so you can recharge before and after hiking. Additionally, five convenient lunch boxes are included for the daily stages. Simple, comfortable and adapted so you can focus fully on the experience.
