Climbing In Mestia (Chalaadi)

Mestia is one of Georgia's most stunning regions, where—alongside many other mountain sports—you can also enjoy rock climbing.

Svaneti is one of the most stunning regions in Georgia, highly popular among adventure tourism enthusiasts. Mestia, the center of Svaneti, is located at 1,500 meters above sea level and is about 460 km away from Tbilisi (an 8–9 hour drive from Tbilisi). Along with rock climbing, Svaneti offers a wide range of extreme and mountain sports.

The region features plenty of hotels, hostels, and guesthouses, making it easy to find accommodation in any price category.

How to get there

The climbing sector is located 10 kilometers from Mestia and can be easily reached by car or by taxi from the city center.

To get to the climbing sector from Mestia, head towards the Chalaadi Glacier. The motor road leads all the way to the crags; however, the final few kilometers are unpaved (dirt road), so a high-clearance 4x4 vehicle is recommended.

The climbing sector is situated right at the beginning of the Chalaadi Glacier hiking trail, with parking available on-site.

Best time to visit

The best period for climbing is from late spring to mid-autumn. During the winter season, climbing on natural rock is virtually impossible due to freezing temperatures and heavy precipitation.
