About this experience
Mtirala National Park is one of the most beautiful corners of Adjara with a stunning landscape that is definitely worth exploring. During the cycling tour, we will descend on mountain trails, admiring subtropical landscapes, plunge into the waters of a mountain lake, discuss the cultural peculiarities of Batumi, and relax while enjoying local cuisine. In the end, you will get to know the world of pristine Adjarian nature in the format of active recreation.
What to expect
Natural Beauty of Mtirala National Park
From Batumi, we will take a minivan to climb the 'crying' mountain of Mtirala, named because of the incredible amount of precipitation here. The slopes of the national park will impress you with the richness of subtropical vegetation, interesting mountain landscapes, and exceptional diversity of local flora. Along the way, you will be accompanied by stories about the peculiarities of Mtirala Park, the nature of Adjara, and the life of the indigenous people.
Cycling tour through protected trails
After a short walk on the upper parts of Mtirala, we will start descending on bicycles from the mountain, riding through the paths of the ancient Colchis forest. Spectacular mountain views will greet you at every turn – in the most picturesque places, we will have photo stops. On the route, you will encounter the most beautiful locations in the park: swim in the pristine mountain lake, relax by the 10-meter Tsablnari waterfall, cross the river on an unusual cable road operated by 'manual traction', and see chestnut houses that are over two centuries old. Additionally, on the way, we will stop by a natural honey shop and have lunch at a picnic area when you get hungry.
