- Check out Kazbegi church, Truso valley, Juta valley. After we did an oil change in Tbilisi.
In Tbilisi we started with an oil change at Tegeta motors afterwards we had to get the right brake pads in one of the many workshops in the city. We managed to do everything in one day and then left to the Caucasus mountains again. This time we went to the Kazbegi region. First stop was the Truso valley. The road to get there is part of the old military highways all around Kazbegi. The area is still very militarized as the border with Russia and south ossetia is just around the corner. Once we arrived we were stopped by the military next to Zakagori fortress. This is how far one can get without a permit. We turned around and camped in the middle of the valley. This valley is absolutely gorgeous with many mineral spings. There are huge calcareous sinter in a very bright orange color, contrasting with the green fields in spring. Close to the Zakagori fortress is a monastery and some mostly abandoned villages. The sheperds go up and down the valley with their flock.
We used the time to do the maintenance that’s necessary after being 10.000 km on the road. Kai did grease up all nipples and topped up the swivel housing cause it's leaking. The last 10.000km on the road have been smooth so far. And we didn't had much problems with the car!
We hiked to the Zakagori Fortress and enjoyed the views before leaving to Kazbegi as the weather was getting bad. In Kazbegi we camped in front of the Gergeti Trinity church and got the visit from the local horses. After a great dinner in the town we left for Juta valley, also part of the military highways. We stayed one night as we were in hurry to cross to Armenia.
Enjoy the ride!

Thank you Steve, yeah I used to say Georgia and the Caucasus is like the alps should be. It feels raw and wild. Great place to be!
Cheers from Romania, Mate! If you had to choose, what would you pick between Truso and Juta Valley? :) Thanks!
Truso 100% . And you can do it in different seasons to see the landscape change, packed with snow or spring like we did, to enjoy the green explosion against the yellow. It is stunning!! Enjoy 😍 we will come back in the future!
Which month this video was taken
what month it was?
First days of June!
Why don't use prefer LAND CRUISER over land rover?
Hey! Land Cruisers are extremely expensive in Europe. We would not be able to travel as we would not have anything left in the bank. And we personally like the Land Rover motto and community better.❤️
