What you will see

A two-day signature trek from Khevsureti to Kazbegi: a night by mountain lakes and a crossing of the Chaukhi Pass (3338 m) with views of the Chaukhi massif

Green LakeThe first night's camp is by the Green Lake. Climbing straight to 3300m without a stop lower down is a bad idea, so camping by Chaukhi with a view over the Abudelauri valley is already part of the adventure
White LakeA light side trip without backpacks to the White Lake, the highest and most untouched of the three. In the evening we watch the sunset over the valley, and at night the stars. Up here in the mountains the sky is completely different, free of city lights
Chaukhi PassSunrise, breakfast, then the climb up the switchbacks to Chaukhi Pass. With every turn of the trail new views open over the Abudelauri valley, the colorful lakes below growing smaller. At the top, one of the highest passes in Georgia
Juta ValleyThe descent into the Juta valley, one of the most beautiful stretches of the whole route. A part of the valley that 95% of tourists never reach, with a close encounter with the Chaukhi massif almost right against its walls
