📍 Coords and Plus Code

The church of St George serves the residents of Juta, one of the highest inhabited villages in Georgia. The building is small and made of local stone.

The village lies at the foot of Chaukhi, where popular mountain trails begin. In summer hikers come up here; in winter the road can be closed by snow.

The doors are opened for services; ask in the village about the times. Modest dress is appropriate, and it can be cold at this altitude even in summer.

📌 In brief

  • A church of St George in a mountain village
  • Juta lies at the foot of the Chaukhi massif
  • In winter the road can be closed by snow

    A really lovely small church with beautiful imagery inside. Don't forget to light some candles.

    This church, recently constructed in the village of Juta, is set in a beautiful spot with stunning views of the towering mountains and the Jutistskali river. During our visit in March, the church was locked, and we didn't encounter anyone in the village who could share more about this sacred site.
