Description
Your adventure begins with a morning pickup from your accommodation in Batumi, setting the stage for a journey into the heart of Mtirala National Park. As you ascend into the park, notice how the city's bustle fades behind the mist-cloaked peaks and dense chestnut and larch forests that whisper tales of millennia.
Our trail leads us along the serene Chakvistskali River, winding through lush boxwood groves punctuated by the calls of local wildlife. The path, a blend of natural challenges and tranquil stretches, brings you face-to-face with Mtirala’s majestic waterfalls. Here, the air is fresh with the spray of cascading waters, inviting you to dive into an invigorating swim in the mountain lake—a hidden gem not frequented by the typical traveler.
Further along, we stop at an alpine apiary where the air buzzes softly with the industry of bees. Here, amidst the floral scents and the taste of raw, mountain honey, you can truly connect with the natural lifestyle of the Georgian highlands.
