In the Kudablin project, we send completely different people on traveling at our expense! Alexey and Maria Glazunovs visited Georgia: they visited little -known and breathtaking places, felt the Caucasian hospitality and dispelled all the stereotypes about this country. Read more – in their report!
See the first part of the report here.
In this article I will tell you and show a slightly beautiful region of Georgia-Kazbegi, but not the places that are written and written on on the Internet, but those that not everyone can know about, and therefore there is rarely anyone there.
If you travel around Georgia in your car from Russia through Vladikavkaz, then read exactly, at least you should look at the Daryal Gorge, go through the juniper grove and may even be refreshed in the high waterfall of Gvelety, it is only 4 km from the border with Russia (or rather, from the border crossing of the upper Lars). Well, if you are traveling on an SUV, then you, no doubt, are a direct road to a beautiful mountain range of Chauha!
Mountain array of chauhi
We rented an all -wheel drive Mitsubishi Delica (we can’t drive here on an ordinary car) and headed to the highland village of Jute, which is located at a mark of 2100 m.
The road goes along the slope of the mountain right above the gorge, and the mountain river of Chauha flows below.
From the village of Jute, where we parked, to the first point – Zeta Camp, there are 2 routes, both are very short, the first leads through the village, we rose to them, and went down the second – bypassing the village.
Some houses are covered with cow feces (see the first floor) – such a mountainous way of insulation.
Zeta Camp is located on the way to the basic camp, there are still all the benefits of civilization, you can eat, take a warm shower, stop for the night both in the house and in the tent. The local atmosphere and views of chauha are the best possible to rest.
Well, closer, within one day, in order to have time to return to the hotel, you can go to a rocky ledge with the waterfalls of the Chauha River and to the huge 10-meter boulders that once broke off the rocky chauha towers, climbers are trained on them, stakes are driven into blocks.
For the same time, we only enjoyed the atmosphere of Zeta Camp and climbed a little higher to 5th Season, there is another parking, music plays, there are puffs, there are also cafes and a hotel. I followed the example of the Israelis that were tanned by a nearby, and also perched, on the stone heated with sunlight.
Beauty, peace around,
I did not want to leave at all …
Mount Chauha is very unusual, this is a rocky array with several peaks, the highest peak is North, 3842m. In general, the chauhi mountain massif is the place where you want to come with the tent to spend at least a few days here, go to a couple of trekking, feel all the incredible power and strength of the mountains in the valley, and of course, see wonderful lakes.
I hope that our story about Georgia’s mountain beauty will come in handy, and if you are not planning to Georgia yet, you want to believe that you have a nice time, virtually traveling with us along this unique corner of Georgia.
