Biisi Waterfall & Ateni Sioni Day Tour – 26 July
Join us on a summer trip to Biisi Waterfall and the Ateni River Valley. During the day, we will visit the beautiful Ateni Sioni Church, walk to Biisi Waterfall, and enjoy time by the river. On warm days, you can bring your swimwear and relax in the cool water, making it a perfect escape from the summer heat.
We will leave Tbilisi in the morning and head to the Tana Valley, also known as the Ateni Gorge. This day is focused on enjoying nature at a relaxed pace, with an easy hike, fresh air, and time by the cold mountain water.
Upon reaching the trailhead, we will begin walking along a narrow path passing through meadows and forest sections. Along the route, we will cross a small creek several times. The water is usually shallow, but depending on the season, you may need to remove your shoes to cross comfortably.
Once we reach Biisi Waterfall, we will have time to relax, take photos, and enjoy the surroundings. After returning to the vehicles, we will visit the historic Ateni Sioni Church before heading back to Tbilisi. Arrival in the city is expected in the evening.
Return to Tbilisi in the evening. End of the tour.
