Lagodekhi, Big Waterfall - Lagodekhi Waterfall, Saturday 5 June 2010



The waterfall was very impressive and worth the difficult walk.


Some youngsters from the nearby village had organised a schaslick party, and we were invited.



Our guide did not think that I was able to manage the walk to the second waterfall I the nature park, so we decided to do it on our own.

The 7 kilometre route starts followed the gorge of Ninoskhevi River, and the waterfall was very impressive.

On our way up we meet a group of young people from the local village, Zemo Gurgeniani, preparing for a schaslick party. On our way down we were invited to join them in way that we could not refuse. So we got some schaslick, bread and a lot of white wine.

Maybe too much wine because on our way back we missed the part of the trail which lead to a bridge, and we had to wade over the river, and took the opportunity clean us from the sweat and dust from the very hot and exhausting 24 kilometres of walking.

The monestary courtyards look like something out of Lord of the Rings. Awsome.
