You step off the air-conditioned van into a slice of western Georgia where water carves the landscape with calm persistence. At Martvili Canyon the Abasha River runs clear enough to see the riverbed, and small waterfalls tumble over mossy ledges; boats push gently through emerald pools while limestone walls frame the light. Later, Okatse Canyon narrows until cliffs lean in close and a single 70‑meter waterfall calls from the ravine below.

No — trails include stairs, uneven surfaces and exposed viewpoints; the operator advises at least moderate fitness and notes restrictions for guests with serious spinal, heart, or pregnancy concerns.
Late spring through early fall offers the best access and warmer water levels; mornings avoid crowds and summer heat, while shoulder seasons provide cooler temperatures and higher river flow.
The area sits near ancient Colchis and medieval Kutaisi; local villages maintain winemaking and craft traditions tied to the region’s long rural history.
Stay on marked paths and avoid swimming in restricted areas; small-group visits and limiting litter help protect fragile karst formations and freshwater habitats.
