Bakhmaro - Black Sea

We start in Bakhmaro and cross the river. We follow the dirt roads to the West. In Baisura [1'900m] we start the climb up the ridge on a difficult and in some parts steep mountain road. From the ridge we have the first time a great view towards the Black Sea.

From here the driving track is not always visible. We ride over alpine meadows usually acompanied by grazing horses. Then we descent toward a hut from which a better driving road goes into the valley of the where we cross the river Natanebi and then start the last ascent up to Meria Keli [2'330m]. A bit higher than the pass we reach our base for the next night - a cazy alp hut with a great view.

We spend the afternoon on the terrasse of the alpine hut or in the sauna.

We start the day with a climb to Wolfsbed - Mglis-Satsoli [2'614m]. From here we have a nice view back on Meria Keli [2'330m] but also all the way back to Goderdzi Pass [2'025m].

We follow the dirt road to the South-west and have a first break at Chin Chao Lake [2'440m]. At luchtime we reach the peak of Taginauri [2'688m] with its old Red Army base on the south facing slope. The last high peak of the tour with a great view in all directions.

After lunch we descent to to Gomistma [1'990m] and from there the access road down to Gomi. We finish our tour in Ozurgeti [100m] or at the beaches of the Black Sea.
