Racha with Georgian__adventures

Program (may slightly change depending on location pace or weather!)

Day 1 – Mountain passes, panoramas, and a fairytale lake

Departure from Tbilisi at 08:00

Mount 9 Crosses (Tsikhrajvari) – One of the most picturesque viewpoints in Racha (1569 m). At the top of the cliff stand nine crosses, surrounded by endless forests, steep ridges, and the turquoise Tkibuli Reservoir below. The view takes your breath away — it's hard to look away. A short forest hike uphill awaits us.

Nakerala Pass (1200 m) – One of the most beautiful mountain passes in Georgia. From the viewpoint, we’ll see the town of Tkibuli nestled between mountains and lakes. Imereti opens up like a map from above.

Shaori Reservoir (Lake Shaori) – The diamond heart of Racha. A large artificial lake created on the Shaori River, surrounded by pine forests and silence. Here you can breathe in deeply — the air is crystal clear and the scenery looks like a postcard.

Nikortsminda Cathedral (11th century) – A masterpiece of Georgian ecclesiastical architecture. Admire the detailed stone carvings and remarkably preserved frescoes. You can truly feel the spirit of antiquity and the grandeur of Orthodox tradition.

Ambrolauri Waterfall (Waterfall of Love) – A small waterfall that flows down moss-covered rocks shaped like a heart. According to legend, standing under the waterfall brings love or a soon-to-happen wedding. Despite its size, it's a very popular spot because of the legend.

Hotel check-in in Ambrolauri – A cozy evening in the mountains. Time to rest or take a quiet walk through the town. Optional: Traditional Racha dinner (45₾, paid separately).

Day 2 – Wine, a mountain village, and return to the city

Breakfast at the hotel. Departure for tours.

Khvanchkara Village – The birthplace of the famous Khvanchkara wine. This wine is a national pride of Georgia! We will learn about the unique Aleksandrouli and Mujuretuli grape varieties. Optional wine tasting at a local winery (extra cost).

Lailashi – A nearly abandoned mountain village with spectacular views above the Tskhenistskali River gorge. In summer, a small open-air mountain pool sits on a cliff edge, filled with icy spring water. A hidden gem you’ll never want to leave.
