Have you ever seen where a river is born? On our second day, we will start with one of the most popular hikes in Mestia — a visit to the Chalaadi Glacier, considered one of the easiest glaciers to reach in Georgia, located only 12 km from Mestia. The glacier itself is a spectacular glacial tongue about 6 kilometers long, originating from the slopes of the mighty Ushba and Chatini massifs. The trail begins with a peaceful walk through a beautiful mixed forest, then continues along a rocky path. As the forest ends, the trail brings us to the banks of the Chalaadi River, whose icy waters emerge directly from under the glacier. The final part of the hike leads across large moraine stones, creating an adventurous approach to this breathtaking natural wonder, and the whole journey from the bridge to the glacier and back usually takes a maximum of 4 hours at a moderate pace, including time for rest and photos.

After visiting the Chalaadi Glacier, we will drive back to Mestia, where we will take you to visit one of the famous Svan Towers. Svan Towers are the iconic symbol of Svaneti. Nowhere else in the world can you find structures like these unique defensive towers, which were primarily built between the 9th and 12th centuries during the Georgian Golden Age. These tower houses were designed as defensive dwellings, usually standing 3–5 storeys high and reaching around 25 meters in height. After exploring the tower, you will have the opportunity to enjoy a meal at one of the local restaurants. At the end of the day, we will take you back to your accommodation. Overnight in Mestia

On the third day, in the morning, you will depart by our car or a local off-road vehicle to Ushguli, located at the head of the Enguri Gorge. Ushguli is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is one of the highest continuously inhabited settlements in Europe, offering an outstanding blend of mountainous landscapes with medieval-style towers and churches. Here, you will have the opportunity to visit the medieval Lamaria Church (dedicated to the Assumption of the Mother of God) and take unforgettable photos of the breathtaking surroundings. Walking among the ancient towers and stone houses, you will feel as if you have stepped back into the Middle Ages, surrounded by history and timeless mountain scenery. Overnight in Mestia

After breakfast, head to the breathtaking Koruldi Lakes, one of the most spectacular viewpoints in the Caucasus, offering panoramic views of Mount Ushba, Tetnuldi, and the surrounding peaks. Depending on the group’s preference and fitness level, you can either hike both ways, drive up by off-road vehicle and hike back down to Mestia, or hike up and return by off-road vehicle. This flexible itinerary allows you to enjoy the experience in the most comfortable way. After your visit, return to Mestia. Overnight in Mestia

On the last day, drive back to Tbilisi with an optional stop at Martvili Canyon. Enjoy its beautiful waterfalls and turquoise waters, with a boat trip available if weather conditions permit. If guests prefer not to visit Martvili Canyon, we will drive directly back to Tbilisi.
