About this activity

Venture 300 km northwest from Tbilisi into Georgia's remote Racha highlands, a rugged mountain region defined by pristine forests, cascading waterfalls, and untouched karst landscapes. This 2-day immersive journey reveals one of the Caucasus's last frontier destinations, recently opened up by improved roads but still wild and largely undeveloped.

A six-hour drive and 300 km (190 mi) away from Tbilisi lies the region of Racha – a highland area located in northwestern Georgia. This place has always attracted Georgian and international tourists and, with recent infrastructure investments, it’s popularity has been booming.

The main attractions here created by nature:
- virgin forests on the slopes of the mountains;
- the purest mountain streams;
- breathtaking beauty, picturesque passes;
- inaccessible mountains;
- karst caves, not ennobled with lighting and hiking trails;
- a beautiful lake-reservoir Shaori;
- bewitching waterfalls.

Highlights

  • ✓Drive through virgin mountain forests and dramatic alpine passes
  • ✓Explore wild karst caves without commercial lighting or groomed trails
  • ✓Visit Shaori Lake reservoir nestled in the highland basin
  • ✓Discover remote waterfalls and pure mountain streams
  • ✓Experience authentic highland terrain away from standard tourist circuits

Insider tips

  • ★Roads to Racha are improving but remain winding and remote—bring motion sickness tablets if prone to car sickness on mountain passes
  • ★Cave exploration involves unlit passages and rough terrain; wear sturdy hiking boots and a headlamp, not just a phone torch
  • ★The region has minimal food and petrol infrastructure—bring snacks and confirm fuel stops with your guide before departure

Good to know

  • •Approximately 6 hours driving each way from Tbilisi; expect long days in the vehicle
  • •Bring warm layers and waterproof jacket—mountain weather changes rapidly and waterfalls create spray zones
  • •No formal accessibility infrastructure; caves and trails are unmanicured and may involve scrambling or steep terrain
  • •Limited mobile signal in remote areas; inform someone of your itinerary

Who it's for
