Trail description: The trek is long, with a steady elevation gain from Juta towards Chaukhi Pass and a steep descent towards Abudelauri Lakes. Crossing the pass is the most challenging section; the trail over the pass is covered with gravel and small stones moving under hikers’ feet. The last 400 meters before the pass are a steep uphill followed by a relatively flat section on the pass and a long steep downhill towards Abudelauri Lakes. Other sections are much gentler, covered with grass and sand.
Itinerary:
????Day 1
Tbilisi – Juta – Acclimatization overnight
We will depart Tbilisi in the afternoon and drive to Juta village (approximately three hour drive). We will follow the famous Georgian Military Highway, stopping on the way to admire its highlights – Zhinvali Reservoir, Ananuri castle, and Gudauri panorama. Upon arrival in Juta, we will check into our guesthouse head to explore the hidden corners of the area. Overnight in Juta.
????Day 2
Juta – Chaukhi – Chaukhi Pass – Roshka – Tbilisi
We will start our hike early in the morning. The initial stage of the trail will be relatively easy, with a gradual but moderate incline. Our first stop will be near Tina Lake at the foot of Mount Chaukhi. After a short break, we will proceed towards Chaukhi Pass – the most challenging part of our trek due to altitude increase. After crossing the pass, we will start descending to Roshka Village. This section of the hike is long and follows a narrow path covered with gravel. In Roshka, we will meet our drivers. Return to Tbilisi in the evening. The end of the tour.
