Tbilisi – Omalo – Diklo – Dartlo – Parsma – Jvarboseli – Omalo – Tbilisi
You can get to know the diversity of the Tusheti mountains and the hospitality of its people on this short hiking trip of 6 days – we hope that you will hold this region in your heart forever.
One of the most beautiful and remote regions of the Georgian Greater Caucasus, Tusheti is made up of high mountain ranges that divide the province into four very distinct valleys: Sakhagmo, Pirikiti, Gometsari and Tsovata.
There are about 50 villages in Tusheti, but most of them are only inhabited from June to the end of September. Only about 10-12 families spend the winter here, mostly in Omalo.
The distance is about 68 kilometers over 4 hiking days. Day 4 goes from 2000 meters up to the Nakaicho Pass from 2950 meters and down to 1850 meters at Jvarboseli.
