Svaneti: Towers & High Meadows
Last updated: September 27, 2025
Trail ribbons between villages; watch towers punch the skyline like chess rooks.
Mestia: Warm‑Up Ridge
A short ridge walk for first views; towers stack like a skyline against the snowline.
Ushguli Loop
High hamlets, glacier horizon, and river stones cold as knives—carry layers and respect weather turns.
Practical & Bases
- Base: Mestia; day trips deeper into the valley or overnight in Ushguli.
- Season: late spring to early fall; snow closes high paths.
- Etiquette: stay on trails; buy local cheese/bread from small yards when offered.
