Sobre Bakuriani
En lo alto del Cáucaso Menor, Bakuriani acoge visitantes desde finales del siglo XIX, cuando se convirtió en un resort de montaña durante el Imperio ruso y más tarde en un centro deportivo soviético. Hoy sus pistas atraen a esquiadores al pico Didveli y al monte Kokhta en invierno, mientras que el verano abre el Jardín Botánico y senderos panorámicos. Sube en el histórico tren de vía estrecha desde Borjomi y caliéntate después con khinkali, khachapuri y trucha con salsa de nueces.
Cultura
Bakuriani rezuma un ambiente deportivo vibrante que combina la hospitalidad georgiana con las tradiciones de montaña. Festivales y comidas contundentes animan el fresco aire de altura.

Classic Georgia — 8 Days
Eight days, one unforgettable loop through the heart of the Caucasus. You'll wander Tbilisi's cobbled Old Town and soak in its sulphur baths, raise a glass in Kakheti's vineyards, then climb to where a lone church stands beneath snow-capped Mt Kazbek. Along the way you'll explore UNESCO cathedrals, a rock-hewn cave town, Stalin's hometown, and Queen Tamar's astonishing cliff-carved monastery.

There, five days take in shimmering Lake Sevan, vibrant Yerevan, the holy city of Etchmiadzin, the pagan temple of Garni, cliff-set Geghard and Noravank, and Khor Virap in the shadow of Mt Ararat. One seamless Caucasus journey, fairly priced and expertly guided.

Bakuriani
Bakuriani is a ski resort in the Borjomi district, on the northern slope of the Trialeti Range at 1,700 m, surrounded by coniferous forest. A resort since the 19th century — favoured by Russian royalty and later a training base of Soviet Olympic skiers — it is reached from Borjomi by the historic narrow-gauge "Kukushka" railway, built in 1902. Winters are moderate, with around 60 cm of snow and over 2,000 hours of sunshine a year.
