Hidden Trails of Georgia - Escorted Walking

This is a trip to really unique and the most beautiful parts of Georgia – Khevsureti and Tusheti provinces. Of all the regions of Georgia, these are the most ecologically unspoiled and still unexplored by travelers due to poor roads. These ancient settlements are known for their medieval watchtowers, still preserved rituals and customs, fascinating views of snowcapped mountains, alpine meadows, roaring rivers and waterfalls. Unique textiles of Kevsurs & Tushetians are famous for beautifully embroidered stars and crosses symbolizing the sun - the cult of ancient Georgia.
