What you will see

Immersion in the atmosphere of wild and tranquil nature. Coniferous forest, flowering meadows and mountain silence

Chobiskhevo Gorge and coniferous forestsThe entire climb passes through dense pine and spruce forest. The road is winding, but thanks to the shade of the trees it is comfortable even on a sunny day. Along the way we stop at observation points, from where we can see the entire gorge and the blue peaks of the Meskheti ridge
Lake Kahisi and wildlifeThe lake is located at an altitude of 1750 meters - it is not just a reservoir, but an entire forest clearing surrounded by hills. It is calm here and not crowded with tourists. In summer there are a lot of wild raspberries on the banks, and local fishermen can often be seen in the lake
The atmosphere of an “alpine dacha”At the top, the forest parts and you find yourself on a hilly plateau that resembles a pastoral picture. An ideal place for a long break to sit on the grass, listen to the sound of the forest and completely recharge
