Getting there

Car

If you're traveling by car, start from the town of Mestia, which is the main hub in Svaneti. Head southeast on the E117 road towards the village of Lentekhi. After about 20 km, you will reach a fork; keep left to continue on to the Chaukhi Pass road. Follow the road for approximately 30 km until you reach the parking area near the Chaukhi Mountain trailhead. There is no official fee for parking, but be sure to check the condition of the road as it can be rough and may require a 4x4 vehicle.

Public Transportation (Minibus)

From Mestia, you can take a minibus (marshrutka) to the village of Juta. Minibuses depart from the main bus station and the journey takes about 1.5 to 2 hours, costing around 5 GEL. Once you arrive in Juta, you will need to hike approximately 8 km to reach the base of Chaukhi Mountain. The trail is well-marked, but ensure you have a map or GPS as it can be challenging for beginners.

Hiking

If you prefer a more adventurous approach and are staying in Juta, you can start your hike from the village. The hike to Chaukhi Mountain is approximately 10 km and typically takes 3 to 4 hours. Make sure to wear proper hiking boots and carry enough water and snacks. The trail offers stunning views, but it can be steep and rocky in places, so be prepared for a workout!
