π The 3 Must-See Stops
Ananuri Fortress
A medieval castle complex on the Aragvi River purely out of "Game of Thrones". Stunning turquoise water views.
Russia-Georgia Friendship Monument
A giant concrete panoramic structure overlooking the Devil's Valley. This is where you get the most dramatic mountain photos.
Gergeti Trinity Church
The icon of Georgia. A small 14th-century church sitting alone at 2,170 meters, with the massive Mt Kazbek glacier behind it.(Note: You can now drive a normal car up there; 4x4 is no longer mandatory as the road is paved).
Food Warning
Restaurants in Stepantsminda (the main town) are tourist traps with slow service. We recommend eating at Pasanauri on the way back for better Khinkali.
