3 Reasons

The Relative Isolation

The North of Georgia is not known as a popular tourist destination, but this works in Mestia's favour, as its quaint, rustique and old-fashioned look and feel is a hidden gem, not to mention the sublime Georgian countryside and scenery that surrounds it. It is the perfect place to unwind, disconnect and forget the stresses of the modern world, all in a beautifully peaceful place.

The Incredible Challenge

Many of the mountains around Mestia test the skills of even the most experienced mountain climbers, with some of the most demanding peaks in the Caucases nestled within. The mighty Mount Ushba (4710m) is a highlight for many, with the equally as awe-inspiring Tetnuldi (4858m) providing a gentler and easier ascent, meaning people of all levels of ability can enjoy these special summits.

Epic Views

It is hard to overstate just how epic, awesome and special the views are from the mountains around Mestia, with the sumptuous Georgian countryside stretching out beneath in to the horizon. There are few concessions to the modern world around here, ensuring the stunning raw natural beauty of the environment is pristine and preserved, making for truly incredible sights.
