Getting There

Car
If you are driving, start from the town of Mestia, the capital of Svaneti. Head east on the main road towards Zhabeshi. After about 10 km, you will reach the village of Zhabeshi. Continue on the road for another 5 km until you reach the trailhead for the hike to Abudelauri Lakes, marked by signs. Park your car in the designated area. The hike to Abudelauri White Lake takes approximately 2-3 hours, depending on your pace. Follow the marked path through the forest and over rocky terrain, enjoying the stunning views as you ascend towards the lakes.

Public Transportation
To reach Abudelauri White Lake using public transport, take a marshrutka (shared minibus) from Mestia to Zhabeshi. Marshrutkas depart regularly from the center of Mestia, and the fare is around 5 GEL. Once you arrive in Zhabeshi, you will need to walk approximately 5 km to the trailhead for the hike. There are no direct public transport options to the lake itself, so you will need to hike approximately 2-3 hours to reach Abudelauri White Lake from the trailhead.
