What you can expect

Your tour will be started at 09:00 from your hotel.
First stop is Jinvali water reservoir.
Jinvali Water Reservoir, also known as Zhinvali Reservoir, is a man-made lake located in the picturesque mountainous region of Georgia. Situated on the Aragvi River, approximately 70 kilometres north of Tbilisi, the capital city, Jinvali Reservoir is renowned for its stunning beauty, tranquil ambiance, and recreational opportunities. Surrounded by lush green hills and soaring mountains, Jinvali Reservoir spans an area of about 26 square kilometres, creating a serene and picturesque landscape. The lake's creation was a result of the construction of the Jinvali Hydro Power Plant, which aimed to harness the Aragvi River's hydroelectric potential.

Your next stop along the way is the Ananuri Fortress, a medieval architectural complex situated on the picturesque shores of the Zhinvali Reservoir. The fortress dates back to the 17th century and consists of two main churches, defensive walls, and a tower. You'll have the opportunity to explore the fortress, walk along its walls, and admire the breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and the azure waters of the reservoir.

After that you will reach Gudauri - Gudauri is a popular mountain resort town located in the Greater Caucasus Mountain Range of Georgia. Situated at an altitude of approximately 2,200 metres above sea level, Gudauri offers a breathtaking alpine environment, world-class ski slopes, and a range of outdoor activities.

Continuing the journey, you drive through the famous Georgian Military Highway, a historic route that has connected Georgia with Russia for centuries. The highway offers stunning vistas, with towering peaks, deep gorges, and verdant valleys stretching as far as the eye can see.

Next, you arrive in the village of Stepantsminda, the main hub of the Kazbegi region. The village is located at the foot of Mount Kazbek, one of the highest peaks in the Caucasus Mountains.

The highlight of the trip awaits—a visit to the Gergeti Trinity Church. Perched on a hilltop at an altitude of around 2,200 metres, the church provides an awe-inspiring view of Mount Kazbek and the surrounding landscapes.

Once at the Gergeti Trinity Church, you have the opportunity to explore the grounds, learn about its history, and soak in the peaceful atmosphere. The church, dating back to the 14th century, is a significant pilgrimage site and an architectural gem
