Overview

The path to the ancient monastery
We will meet in Tbilisi and head south-east towards the Georgian-Azerbaijani border. The only village that you will meet on the way to the monastery, as if making excuses because of its location in an arid area, is called Udabno (desert - in Georgian). On the way, you will see the natural landscape of the area - a waterless steppe that changes colour depending on the season, ridges of bizarre “design” hills and the outlines of the Caucasus Mountains visible in the distance. After short stops for photographing at the salt lake and / or other places we like, we will arrive at the main destination - the monastery that still functions today.

Activity itinerary

Udabno
  • 30m
Landscapes of the Gareja Desert This is a trip to a completely different Georgia: you will discover the stunning, unlike anything else, the nature of a real stone desert, where there is no water, and the grass turns yellow and becomes dry in the middle of summer. On the way to the monastery, we will stop at such places of the Gareja Desert, where the breathtaking and harsh beauty of the views is breathtaking. You will be able to take photos from the best angles and perhaps get the chance to see wild foxes, jackals and eagles. And in the winter season, herds of sheep grazing in the yellow-red expanses will also fall into the frame.
