A short drive from Kazbegi brings you to the gateway of Truso Valley — a quiet and expansive landscape where ancient watchtowers, natural mineral springs, and silent ruins paint a vivid picture of the past. The hiking route is gentle, following a wide trail through open fields and along a peaceful river, with panoramic views of the Caucasus all around.
Along the way, you’ll encounter the surreal colors of the travertine formations, pass forgotten Ossetian villages, and feel the quiet presence of centuries-old towers guarding the valley. It’s an easy-to-moderate walk that rewards you with both scenery and stillness — ideal for travelers looking to connect with Georgia’s wilder side without intense climbs.
Truso isn’t just a destination — it’s a reminder of what was, and an experience of what still is.
