The Galiskhevi naeklesiari lies in Koshkebi village of Kareli Municipality. Naeklesiari in Georgian means a place where a church once stood: the building is gone, yet the spot is still revered.
Koshkebi lies north of Kareli, in the hills above the Kura valley. The Tkupi and Satskali basilicas stand nearby, and the village of Kvemo Rieti begins not far away.
Access is free at any time, and the path runs across the grass. Candles are left here, and the stones and masonry deserve careful treatment.
