Georgia

Walk by Georgian-Azerbaijan boder in David Gareji is great. We've been there at the end of May, as we've been warned it's the most rainy season in this region. There was a rain but it didn't change how epic this place was.

Gareji is a complex of monasteries just on the border of Georgia and Azerbaijan. You'll see many amazing landscapes and also an interesting piece of history. #golden
You can climb on Sighnaghi's city walls and enjoy beautiful views of the Kakheti landscapes.
Davit Gareji or David Garedzha Monastery is located in the Grasslands of Georgia, 2.5 hours South-East of Tbilisi. This place and the surrounding nature are a "different world" and worth visiting. The road via Sagarejo and Udabno has road signs, is easy to find and also good enough for 2-wheel drive. The road via Rustavi (stupidly suggested by Google maps) has no signs, requires GPS and a 4-wheel drive is recommended (we drove that dirt road on the way back to Tbilisi and we did not meet any car for 20 km). A nice young couple is running a small adventurous hotel in Udabno ("Oasis Club", www.oasisclubudabno.com) also offering Horse Riding Tours, etc.

  • Ikalton luostari
Although the fortifications in Signaghi do still almost completely encircle the city, you can only actually walk along a small section of the walls.

If you have a head for heights and good balance, you can climb to the top of one of the towers for views like these.

Ota suunnaksi Sighnaghi ja koe sen katedraali, kulttuuri sekä vuoristomaisemat.
Half way between Telavi and Sighnaghi, 2 km South of Gurjaani is the church Kvelatsminda - an absolute "must see", if you pass by. The church was built in the 8th/9th century and features a long structure building topped by two domes. The interior is already a clear 3-hall basilica and the height is impressive! In Gurjaani you drive up-hill for 2km then park the car and walk down-hill for approx. 300m.

Dzveli-Gavazi Church, in Akhalsopeli, half way between Kvareli and Lagodekhi, Kakheti, Georgia. The original church, dated to the 6th century, was a simple structure with 4 apses and a dome. In the 8th-9th century it was surrounded by an ambulatory and the done was heightened.
Qvareli
Ilia-järvi ja Nekresin luostari ovat vain muutama tämän kohteen monista nähtävyyksistä.
A protected forest reserve forgotten by time. Solitary hiking trails. Wildflowers. Secret waterfalls. So much to love! 

Do the very adventurous hike to the big waterfall, or the easier one to the small waterfall. Keep 3 days for the lake!
