A trip to Lake Tabatskuri: a tourist route through Borjomi - camping in the wild!

We recommend getting to your destination by car or truck with an increased level of cross-country ability, since the road in some places is very blurred or completely absent. During the journey you will meet perfect wildlife, the most beautiful places of Georgia, rivers and plains. And the view of the surrounding mountain range is absolutely fascinating. During the trip, we recommend setting aside at least a day if it is not possible to stay near the lake overnight. There are no places ennobled by civilization for camping near the reservoir, but this is exactly what conveys all the charm of a wild holiday with tents in nature, isn't it?

Why is it worth climbing into such an uninhabited thicket, enduring such an inconvenient road and sleeping in a tent without sewerage and electricity? Of course, for the sake of Lake Tabatskuri. The fact that it is located at an altitude of 1991 m above sea level brings it closer to the sun and warms the water in it to very warm temperatures all year round. The structure of the formation of the bowl itself for the reservoir was organized with the help of lava and rain flows. All this has led to the fact that very rare species of plants and waterfowl have settled in the lake, which are very whimsical to living conditions. Only here you can observe such crystal clear blue water and fish in it as in the palm of your hand. You can look at this beauty forever, like the stars that are displayed at night in the mirror surface of the lake, forming a kind of circular vault of heaven. When you are here, it seems that the most beautiful places of Georgia are specially hidden so deeply that you want to discover them more and more often.
