This 6-day trek from Tusheti to Khevsureti is likely one of the most breathtaking trails imaginable. The journey leads through the Greater Caucasus mountains, featuring alpine meadows, snow-capped peaks, pine forests, and medieval villages. The trek begins on a car road in Tusheti, visiting the stone villages of Dartlo, Kvavlo, Parsma, and Girevi. Following this, the route takes a shepherd’s trail into the Caucasus mountains for a 3-day wilderness hike. There are no huts or people, except for fellow hikers. The trek crosses the Atsunta Pass at 3400m, descending into the Khevsureti region. Here, the path becomes easier and eventually follows a car road. The journey includes visits to the stunning villages of Mutso and Shatili, known for their stone towers and houses. These defensive medieval complexes, built on rocky mountains, offer picturesque views of the narrow gorges. The trekking tour concludes with a return to Tbilisi in comfortable transport.
