Reisebericht: Adventure Tours

Tour to Khevsureti (North-East of Georgia)

Khevsureti is a historic province in East Georgia, located along both the northern and southern slopes of the Great Caucasus Mountains. The name means “land of gorges” in Georgian. Khevsureti is well known for its fortified villages. Locals would build their houses very close to each other so that together houses would make one single fortification. Everything was thoroughly taken into consideration for protecting themselves and repelling the enemy. Even entrance doors to houses are very low - inconvenient, of course, but it made difficult for an armed enemy to enter. Best examples of fortified villages are Shatili, Mutso and Ardoti
