  • The Tmogvi Fortress is not easy to reach (15 min from the village by car, 4x4 recommended - or 25 min walk... :-) ) but it definitely worth. We didn't know much about it, just heard that there are...

  • Visit here cant be compared to the visit to more maintained and younger Khertvisi fortress which is more boring from inside. From here you can reach the best views of the gorge - follow dirt road...

  • The Tmogvi Fortress is not easy to reach (15 min by car [4x4 recommended] or 25 min by walk) but definitely worth it! One of the most beautiful view have ever seen! On a painting I would say the artist pushed it a bit too far such a beautiful composition does not exist in reality - but if you are there you must accept that, nevertheless, yet there is... ;-)
  • Tmogvi Fortress has amazing views of the valley below. But I recommend against climbing all the way up to the castle, as the “trail” is very treacherous. You could easily slip & tumble down the hill; I almost did. If you have a drone, bring it and get your good pics that way. Also, the road up to the fortress is quite difficult without a 4x4, but I did manage to slowly make it up there with a Toyota Prius.
