About this experience
Not far from Tbilisi, there is a corner of untouched nature where time has stopped: the rocks here are as monumental as centuries ago, the waterfalls are cold, and the forest is fresh and shady. We will take an easy but exciting path through the canyon to the ruins of the fortress, give our legs a good workout, and take a break to enjoy a pleasant rest amidst eternal beauty.
What to Expect
Exploring the Canyons
Canyons of Birtvisi are located in the Tetri-Tskaro area and come in two types: wet and dry. You will learn about their difference on the spot. For our walk, we will choose the dry one - a forested area with rocky slopes of various shapes and heights. Along the way, we will see rugged mountains, small waterfalls, and mystical rock tunnels - a corner of absolutely wild nature.
Easy Route
There are several trekking route options through the canyon. We will choose the easiest and shortest path that even beginners can handle. It is estimated to take about 2-3 hours one way. We will stroll along the main trail to the central valley, where we will organize a picnic, and make a trip to the Birtvisi fortress, which once protected the locals from Mongol invasions.
