Travel Guide

Ushguli (in the Svaneti region in northwestern Georgia) is a community of four villages, and claims to be the highest permanently inhabited settlement in Europe.

Ushguli is inhabited by an ethnic group called the Svans and is characterised by its Svan towers - used as familial living quarters, fortified fortresses of defense, and personal treasuries.

Never ending surprises, on the way to Ushguli

Ushguli's monastery is ancient and mysterious, just like the orthodox priest at the entrance.Cover your modesty before going in, and make sure to buy some delicious honey

“Atmospheric” is how this place was described to me before we went to Ski there. “As long as you don’t mind getting some cow shit on your ski boots” was the rest of the description we received. The roads through town were 4x4 and wild horses groomed the grassy slopes below the 16,000 ft peaks above. This place seems preserved, culturally and naturally. A gem of a mountain village hidden deep inside the county of Gorgia, a place I plan to return to asap.

10/10 Exceptional! (1 review)
The stay was good. The guesthouse a little bit far from the center but the town is really small. The really big bonus was that the owner knew english!
