Later, the path becomes evener, and the hikers can enjoy a beautiful walk through a majestic mountain valley. The valley is famous for its alpine meadows, roaring rivers, and crystal-clear waterfalls. On our hike, we will aim to reach an alpine lake, Tine, perched at the foot of Chaukhi. Time permitting, we will also enjoy a nearby waterfall. In the afternoon, we will return to Stepantsminda. Overnight in Stepantsminda.
