Our trips are for those who explore life

We're in for a spell of good weather this Sunday, so we're going to take advantage of it to go to a beautiful forest and pick some mushrooms 🍄🍄‍🟫

We're not revealing the location—the route will be a secret.

Don't miss this chance to see it for yourself and gather some delicacies from the southern forests.

We're heading to one of the most beautiful regions in Georgia. It will be a long day, but a very eventful one: fall forests, mountain vistas, a reservoir, ancient fossils, and a sunset in the mountains.

🪨 The Columns of Sairme

Let's start the day with a walk along a forest trail through the fall woods. We'll climb up to some unusual rock formations and come out at one of the most beautiful scenic viewpoints along the route.

🥾 5 km · ⛰ Ascent/descent — about 320 m

🌊 Shaori Reservoir

After that, we’ll head to Shaori—a tranquil reservoir surrounded by dense forests. On a clear day, you can see the snow-capped peaks of the Greater Caucasus from here.

You can also see genuine ancient fossils of marine mollusks here—evidence that millions of years ago, the site of today’s Rachin Mountains was covered by the sea.

🌄 Tskhradzvari

We'll end the day with a hike up to a cliff where there's a small church. From here, there's a sweeping view of the valley and the Tkibul Reservoir. This is where we'll watch the sunset in the mountains.

🥾 2 km · ⛰ Ascent/descent — about 100 m

Three completely different places in a single day—the forest, the mountains, and the water; the history of an ancient sea; and a sunset viewed from high above. And all of this in Racha in the fall 🍂

Let's head to the autumn forests of Abastumani—for a beautiful and easy hike through the mountains, forests, and panoramic views of Samtskhe-Javakheti.

We’ll walk along a picturesque forest trail, stop by the ruins of an ancient fortress, and climb up to spots offering sweeping views of the surrounding mountains and the endless forests of Borjomi-Kharagauli National Park.

Along the way, there are several lookout points and plenty of beautiful fall scenery.

🍄 Plus, the forest is especially fascinating for naturalists right now. Fall is gradually taking hold, and more and more mushrooms and other forest creatures are appearing among the fallen leaves. So along the way, we’ll not only admire the scenery but also keep an eye out for what’s growing, crawling, and hiding around us.

As always, this won't just be a walk along the trail—it will be an opportunity to slow down a bit, take a closer look at the familiar forest, and discover a new side of it.

♨️ And after the tour, we'll stop by the famous hot thermal pools of Abastumani to relax and end the day in the warm water.

Three days in Svaneti: the Shdugra and Mazerri waterfalls, Ushguli, the Namkuami mountain lake, the Chalaadi Glacier, and the famous Svan towers. We’ll enjoy hiking, views of Ushba and Shkhara, and cozy evenings in the mountains.
