📍 Coords and Plus Code

Tsetskhlisjvari is known as a tower, and the whole place around is mentioned as the Seturni complex as well. Towers of this kind were built in the mountains as watchposts and dwellings, and usually stood by the roads.

The Ganisi country lies in the mountains above the Georgian Military Road. The Sharumianti Tsetskhlisjvari church stands about a kilometre away, the Ascension church at Ganisi two and a half, and the old Lomisa church of Kvemo Mleta almost three.

The site is open and there are no gates. Approach the tower with care: the old masonry holds poorly and it is better not to climb inside. The place suits a walk with children, though they need watching by the walls.

    The hike to the tower is quite steep, but the views along the way are stunning. It takes about 45 minutes to reach the top. There isn’t a proper walking path, so you'll need to be in good shape and find your own way up. The effort is worth it for the incredible view! Although the tower is mostly in ruins, you can peek inside to see its former structure.

    The view of Aragvi gorge from the ancient ruins is amazing.
