Climbing to Chaukhi bace camp

In addition to alpine mountaineering routes, you can also climb sport routes at the Chaukhi camp.

The Chaukhi Mountains are one of the key mountaineering massifs in Khevsureti. A 1.5 to 2-hour trek from Juta brings you to the Chaukhi base camp, which serves as the starting point for numerous mountaineering routes in the region (visit the page for detailed info on mountaineering routes).

In addition to alpine routes, you can also climb sport routes on the large boulders located right near the base camp.

Route

Here there are short routes (maximum 15 meters), including a few lead climbing routes and a few top-rope routes as well. This spot is primarily intended for beginner climbers to learn technical climbing fundamentals, but it is also great for a 3 to 4-hour climbing session."

How to get there

The hiking trail heading to the Chaukhi base camp begins in the village of Juta (2,100 m). We leave the car in the village and set off toward the Chaukhi base camp. After passing through the village, you will reach Zeta Camping. Continuing past the camp along the path, you will need to cross the river a few times. The hiking trail is well-marked and frequented by many locals and tourists, making navigation easy. The main Chaukhi base camp is located at the foot of the moraine at 2,250 m (or ~2,400–2,600 m depending on the sector), where you can also drink fresh water directly from the river near the camp."
