Program
departure
We leave Batumi in the evening. We arrive at a mountain near Batumi at dusk, build a campfire, make hot dogs, chat, and wait for the sky to darken.
A Tour of the Sky
Our naturalist, Alina, will lead a tour of the starry sky and tell us about constellations and meteor showers. And Artem will show us the planets through a telescope.
Afterward, we’ll lie down to look at the sky and count the shooting stars.
Important! Make sure to have your wishes ready in advance—shooting stars pass by quickly, so you’ll need to make your wish in time)))

Level 1 difficulty—what does that mean?
You can hike these trails even without any hiking experience, but you need to be in good physical shape. The trail isn't very long and doesn't involve a significant elevation gain.
But don't forget that this is still a hike in the mountains.
If you're still not sure whether this itinerary is right for you, feel free to email us :)
The scale is relative; use the distance and elevation gain as a guide.
