Koruldi Lakes lie high in the mountains above Mestia, at an elevation of about 2,850 metres, among the natural attractions of the region. The spot offers a panorama over the villages of Zemo Svaneti, the Enguri valley, and snow-capped peaks including Shkhara, Tetnuldi, Ushba, Laila and other summits of the Caucasus range. Alpine meadows surround the lakes, grazed by sheep.
Three ways to get there: on foot, on horseback, or by high-clearance vehicle. For a driving trip, a 4x4 is strongly recommended: the mountain road is demanding, and according to several visitor reviews, the climb involves noticeable road dust and the thinner air typical of an elevation approaching 2,850 metres, especially if ascending quickly. Allow time to acclimatise and avoid rushing the final stretch.
The lakes are beautiful year-round, but especially striking in late spring, summer and autumn, when the alpine meadows turn green and the peaks reflect in the still water.
