Hiking the Secret Rkoni: Historic Path & Forest Picnic

Discover a hidden medieval gem on a private hiking tour to Rkoni. Walk through breathtaking forest trails, explore ancient ruins, and finish your day with a peaceful picnic by the river.
Forgotten Trails: Hiking Expedition to Rkoni Gorge
Leave the noise of Tbilisi behind for a realm where time stood still. This tour is designed for true nature enthusiasts—those who prefer the crunch of forest trails beneath their boots over the hum of an engine, and crave raw, untouched landscapes. This is a deep immersion into one of Georgia’s most secluded hidden gems: the emerald-green ravine of the Tedzami River.

Into the Emerald Forest: Scenic Trekking & Medieval Mysteries
The real adventure begins where the road ends. Rkoni is an absolute paradise for hikers and photographers. The local trails are incredibly picturesque: ancient trees blanketed in thick green moss, giant ferns, dramatic rock overhangs, and sunbeams piercing through the dense canopy create a fairytale-like atmosphere. Every twist of the path offers a stunning frame, where vibrant greenery beautifully contrasts with raw, weathered stone.

Following these scenic forest tracks, you will reach the isolated Rkoni Monastery complex. Tucked away deep inside the woods, this medieval stronghold still echoes with the spirit of ancient Georgia. Just a short walk further, Queen Tamar’s legendary stone bridge arches gracefully over the rushing mountain river. Standing over the waters for over 800 years without a single central support, this ancient marvel remains surrounded by wilderness and mysterious ruins. It is the perfect spot to capture cinematic shots.

For the Active Explorer: The Hidden Rkoni Waterfall
If you love a physical challenge and are in good shape, we won't stop at the standard sights. For physically fit and prepared travelers, we offer an exclusive extension. We will dive even deeper into the dense wilderness, trekking upstream along rugged paths to reach the hidden Rkoni Waterfall. The trek requires extra stamina, but the reward is unmatched—a wild, roaring cascade hidden from the crowds, where you can experience the raw power of nature in complete isolation.

The Art of Relaxation: Riverside Mountain Picnic
After an active day of hiking, a well-deserved, curated rest awaits you. Right on the banks of the rushing mountain river, surrounded by ancient trees, we will set up a private, scenic picnic. No rushing—just pure comfort and local flavors. Unwind to the soothing sound of the water while savoring authentic local bites and a glass of fine Georgian wine. The rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee will serve as the perfect finale to this open-air forest lunch.

Flexible Finale: Svetitskhoveli Cathedral (Optional)
On our way back to Tbilisi, if time permits and you wish to explore further, we can make a cultural stop in Mtskheta, the ancient capital. We will visit the majestic Svetitskhoveli Cathedral—the living heart of Georgian history. This optional stop creates a beautiful contrast: after a day spent on wild, moss-covered forest trails, you will stand before the monumental architecture of Georgia's Golden Age.
