Mestia
No. 2 of Fall Viewing Attractions in Georgia

Mestia

6
5.0/5
2 reviews
Mestia is located in the Caucasus Mountains of northwestern Georgia, at an elevation of approx. 1,500m, and serves as the gateway and cultural center of the Svaneti region. It is surrounded by towering snow-capped peaks, glaciers, forests, and alpine meadows, offering magnificent natural scenery. Due to its remote location in the mountains, it has long preserved its unique architectural style, customs, and local culture, making it a tourist destination with distinct regional characteristics in Georgia. It is also a popular starting point for hiking, mountaineering, skiing, and glacier exploration. Visitors can travel from here to traditional mountain villages such as Ushguli, enjoy the natural views of the Caucasus Mountains, and experience local cuisine and folk culture.Mestia · 8.7 km from Nakipari
Ushguli
No. 3 of Fall Viewing Attractions in Georgia

Ushguli

5.0/5
6 reviews
Ushguli is nestled at the end of the Enguri River valley in the Svaneti mountains of Georgia, backed by Mount Shkhara at an altitude of over 5,000m. Situated at an elevation of over 2,100m, it comprises four old stone villages—Murkmeli, Chazhashi, Chvibiani, and Zhibiani—and is one of the few permanently inhabited high-altitude villages in Europe. The iconic scenery here consists of hundreds of Svan towers: the tall, slender medieval stone towers were once fortresses for villagers to watch for enemies and shelter from snowstorms. Today, they still stand crowded together with churches and houses on the same hillside, while cattle and sheep roam freely in the stone-paved alleys between the towers. Walking through them feels like stumbling into a medieval mountain village that is still living its daily life.Mestia · 19.4 km from Nakipari

Koruldi Lakes is one of the one-day hiking routes in Mestia. There are two lakes on the snow-capped mountain. The lake itself is very small. The scenery along the road is the same as the reflection of the snow-capped mountains. The section from the Cross (Cross) on the mountain to the top of the mountain is surrounded by snow-capped mountains, especially wonderful.Mestia · 12.6 km from Nakipari

Mestia is a small mountain town located in the Svaneti region of northwestern Georgia. If Sighnaghi is the "town of love," then Mestia is the "heart of the Georgian Alps," renowned for its medieval Svan Tower, stunning snow-capped mountain scenery, and top-notch hiking trails. Despite its small size, the town has its own airport. * Svan Tower (medieval defensive stone towers), hiking paradises (such as those leading to Koruldi Lakes), ski resorts (such as Tetnuldi), and Caucasus Mountain scenery. An outdoor haven where natural beauty and a thousand years of history intertwine.

it is not an easy hike from mestia to lake koruldi, with 1400m of elevation in 8.5km. But the view on the way was totally worth it. it took us 6 and a half hour to do the round trip. we went there by May, the lake was still covered by ice and snow, therefore cannot be seen. But we enjoy so much along the trail.
