Beschrijving
Explore Ushguli on a guided day trip from Mestia. Stop at Ushba viewpoint, visit Lamaria Church with Shkhara mountain viewpoint, walk among medieval towers and enjoy stunning Caucasus scenery.
Discover the wild beauty of Svaneti on a scenic journey from Mestia to the legendary mountain village - Ushguli.
The entire journey is led by a local guide who shares important historical facts, cultural insights, and fascinating stories about Svaneti along the way, giving you a deeper understanding of the region beyond what you see.
The trip begins with a drive through the breathtaking Caucasus landscape. Your first stop is a panoramic viewpoint overlooking the iconic Mount Ushba (4710 m) - often called the “Matterhorn of the Caucasus.” Take in the sharp ridgelines and capture unforgettable photos.
Continue to the famous Love Tower, a solitary medieval tower surrounded by local legends.
Arriving in Ushguli, one of Europe’s highest inhabited settlements and part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, you step into a place where time seems to stand still. Stone defensive towers rise against the backdrop of the Greater Caucasus, and daily life moves at a slower, centuries-old rhythm.
Visit the historic Lamaria Church, set on a hill above the village with panoramic views of the valley and direct views of Mount Shkhara (5201 m)- the highest mountain in Georgia and one of the most spectacular viewpoints in the region.
Afterward, enjoy free time to walk through the village, explore the medieval towers, take photos, or have lunch at a local guesthouse.
In the afternoon, relax on the scenic drive back to Mestia
