The historical and geographical region of Georgia Svaneti consists of two parts - Zemo and Kvemo Svaneti. They are separated by the Svaneti ridge. Zemo Svaneti is part of the Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti region.
Kvemo Svaneti is part of the Racha-Lechkhumi-Kvemo Svaneti region and covers the valley of the Tskhenistskali River from its source to the Muri Bridge.
On the Svaneti ridge there are several passes that connect Zemo and Kvemo Svaneti: Lasili (3086 m), Atkveri (or Zagari - 2623 m) and Latpari (2830 m), which is used for household needs (for harvesting hay and firewood, for hunting) and hiking.
Driving on this road is only possible from June to October. Since avalanches often occur on the vertical slope of the ridge in winter.
On the southern slope of the Svaneti ridge, in the valley of the Tskhenistskali River, there is the climatic and balneological resort of Muashi, which is known for its mineral waters. From Muasha you can go to the valley of Zesho, where since 1978 the mountaineering camps "Aylama" (Aylama is the peak in the valley of Zesho, 4546 meters above sea level) and "Zesho" (1880 meters above sea level) have been functioning.
"Ailama" was visited by professional alpinists, and "Zesho" by amateur climbers. Throughout the year, thousands of young people from all over the Soviet Union learned the basics of mountaineering here. Often there were not enough places in the cottages for all the guests and tents were pitched in the center of the camp.
In the 1990s, the camps ceased to exist. However, since 2001, Zesho has been actively accepting vacationers again.
